One of the benefits of shorter hair is a puff that doesn't fall over and is perfectly round:

keelioness - No. This is a bantu knot out done on previously blowdried hair. I used a small amount of Eco Styler Olive Oil Gel on each section. I put my hair into 6 bantu knots: 2 on top, 2 on the sides, and 2 in the back.

Ooooh, wavezncurlz, a little birdie told me about your puff--coz I do talk about your hair and its ability to puff a lot behind your back BTW
--and I'm so glad I didn't miss these pics! I think this is the first time I've seen a true puff on your grown head. 
It's simply beautiful!!! :notworthy (For those who don't know, I'm Nonie and I love afro puffs!)I'm so excited you are getting to enjoy your shorter length. How did you create the puff? Just combed it out? Coz I be hearing rumors that some people can't do it.
Anyway while I was here, I ended up spending about 15 minutes looking at all the lovely heads up in here!!!
I feel there should be a coffee table book of just all the pics in this thread. No words, just photos of the wonderful creations. I'm glad this thread exists. All you models should brace yourself for the day I'll be hitting you up for instructions on creating the styles.

Nonie - When I think of round puffs, I think of you. You are the queen of round puffs. I didn't do much to create it. Just brushed it back, used not much product, and fluffed it as it dried so it didn't dry as curly. No ancient secret or anything.

@toiatoya Hey there. Are you using your color to mark your growth or are you going to color again? Just all up in your afro is all...
well i've decided i don't want to color again. i kinda like how it's growing out, plus i colored so much when i first bc, i think i may have damaged the ends a little. im trying to hold on to em though
no worries, thanks for the mention!
ricobb, thanks chica! It's my hair. I don't have my hair cut in the front to make a real (permanent) bang and I didn't want to cut my hair, so I just sectioned off the front portion, twisted the bottom of the section, tucked it under, pinned it and fanned it out. I hope that makes sense.
Thanks for the response. I'm going to have to try that bang trick! I don't want to cut any bangs quite yet either, especially when I can create faux bangs !

My hair for the week:

Decided to stop being lazy and rollerset my hair. This is my natural texture, for reference (pic taken a few months ago):
I waited until about 60% dry so that I wouldn't have to sit under the dryer so long. I worked a quarter-sized amount of IC Fantasia Serum throughout and didn't use any setting lotion or other products. After the set was dry, I put my hair into a high bun and went to bed. I flatironed on a low setting yesterday morning and went back under the dryer for a silk (saran) wrap. I wrapped it back up last night, and this is the result *please ignore the raggedy ends, I'm only dusting while transitioning and when I BC I will make the hemline blunt*:
I'll probably do this every 2 or 3 weeks for the rest of the fall/winter.
