I am just trying to understand my hair, to learn what works and what doesn't, to experiment, make mistakes, and to embrace my hair in it's entirety..... because Roots Don't Lie

High Puff Hairstyle

Hey Guys,

A new look I have been rocking. I will film a super easy tutorial soon. Hope you like it.









Excuse all the weird faces.. I was trying to be creative/fierce.

Modified Wash-n-go

Hey Guys,

This past weekend, I did a modified wash-n-go.

Products/Tool Used.
  • Leave-in conditioner mix
  • Curl Junkie 'Curls in a bottle"
  • Modified Denman
  • Small tooth comb
Method
  • I started out on freshly co-washed hair.
  • I parted my hair into about 5 sections so they were easier to handle
  • Then starting work on each section, I split the hair into smaller sections, saturated with my leave-in mix, and then combed through with a small tooth comb.
  • I then applied/worked in the hair gel in each section, and used my Denman to help the clumping.
  • Then I twisted each section.


I took it down the next day.. and these are the results.



Day 2 Hair




Last Words

The curl definition was amazing.. It did however feel a little tacky and sticky when I took the Hair down, it probably has something to do with the hair gel. I also wish I had more hang time, but I'm getting used to the fact that my hair texture may just not have the hang time I am looking for.

Next Time I may try to use a thicker leave-in conditioner and then maybe remember to seal with an oil.

Hey Guys,
Just a few pictures from day 2 of a wash-n-go... I got a little carried away playing and taking pictures. But they were cute and goofy, so I thought to put them on here.

Enjoy
