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

Up-do on Stretched Natural Hair

Hey Guys,

I had my hair in a ponytails for a couple of days and when I eventually took my hair down I had mostly stretched, except for a few sections at the top.

I decided to do a quick up-do and here is what I came up with.

Finger Twists

Hey guys,

I decided to try out a new hairstyle for the week. I am not sure how long they will last though. 
I De-tangled my mini twists, I wore them out over the weekend and finger coiled using the curls cashmere jelly..

The roots are puffy and I had to go back and make smaller sections on some of them so they did not unravel all the way.

Zig Zag Hair Style Inspired By AccordingtoChloeC

Hey Guys,

I stumbled across AccordingtoChloeC on YouTube and I was an instant fan. She put up this video of a zig-zag hairstyle she did on her straightened hair, and I thought to give it a shot. It took me 2 attempts to figure it out but I must say I love the results. Here is her video, and what mine looked like

 











 



 








 
 
I did this hairstyle on a 3 day old bun, so mine is not as smooth as hers... but a success nonetheless

Well Hello There Puff

Hey Guys,

It has been ages since I wore my hair in a puff! I had a twist-out on Monday but when I went to the gym I put my hair in this puff to work out and it has been like this since Monday.

I twisted my hair using the entwine products from my last post.. And I haven't had to re-moisturize my hair since then. My hair feels very soft and moisturized.

At night I simply tie a satin scarf on the part that's pulled up and go to sleep. I should probably cover the puff part but my sheets and pillow case are satin so I did not think that was necessary.























 
 
My broken off edges seem to be growing back in.. slowly but surely my edges will be re-stored.

Twist Out With Perm Rods

Hey Guys,


I decided to co wash my hair last night and try out a new hairstyle:

Products used:
Co-wash : As I am Coconut Co-Was Conditioner
Leave-in Conditioner: Karen's Body Beautiful Sweet Ambrosia
Stylers: Entwine 'Creme Jelle Styler' and 'Exotic Butter Cream.
Purple perm rods.


My hair did not have time to dry completely, and so when I took down the twists my hair was still damp.
