Everyday Hair...The Pretty, The Nappy, The Crazy...Post Your Hair RIGHT NOW!!!

GoodMernin · Jan 28, 2012

I wanted to do my hair in a protective style to not bother with it too much and give it a break so I figured that putting braids in it while it was flat ironed would make the process easier...and it was!!

I was able to get my parts perfect.

I have it slathered in cold pressed EVOO and I am doing the green house effect for a couple hrs until I band it and wash it.

I'll post results after my wash.

GoodMernin · Jan 28, 2012

Well, I washed my braids.

@MissAlinaRose pretty how did you achieve this style? Is it blowdried or wet styled?

virtuenow

Thanks! This is an air dried stretched twistout.

Medium sized twists braided and air dried over night.

This week's twistout...hair is still slightly damp, but doesn't seem like it will shrink much because it is about 80% dry already...thanks flaxseed gel. But I like fluffy twistouts anyway, so....

ETA: :lol:

Whoops, you can see my clothes hanging on the shower rod to dry. I live in a small apartment, so no laundry room space. :ohwell:

Your fluffy twists are really nice!

And your long sweeping dress and sandals are so elegant.

*sigh*

I think you ladies may be inspiring me to get out of my soccer mom sweats and cute myself up more. :lol:

I try to keep the amount of products to a minimum.

I only wash with liquid black soap now, condition with Tresemme Curl Hydration mixed with water and cold pressed EVOO, then pH balance with whole leaf aloe vera juice and water.

Then to moisturize I use Cantu Shea Leave in only after washing then moisturize during the between wash days with EVOO and shea butter.

My main thing is using the most natural things that I can find besides the conditioners.

I try to keep it simple because being a wife and mom...my "me" time is VERY limited! :lachen:

Can you tell me what you did to acheive this look?

ChristmasCarol · Jan 30, 2012

The day before I wash my hair, I usually wear a single braid because it "hides" my oil pre-poo well:

This style is how I taught myself to braid! It was easy to not have to worry about parts being straight! I wore my hair in versions of this all throughout high school...My hair wasn't as droolworthy as yours though!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!!

I do a short side part in the front and comb my hair to the back as though I was going to do a low ponytail. I pull the length of the hair up and use a large bobby pin to hold it in place at the back of my head. Then I just pull the sides to the middle to cover the pin and hold them in place with a hair clip. (kind of a southern tease gone wrong :ohwell:

) I hope I explained that okay.

I think so. I'm going to attempt it. I like how full it is! Thanks
