Oh yes the twist out was always so much fun :yep: My straightened look was my signature look for most of my natural journey but I decided to go mostly heat free this yr to get to those last 3 inches to MBL I'll probably go back to straightening when I reach my goal but I'll give it breaks here and there:yep:

:welcome: with that :gorgeous: head of hair and your styling options bet you become an instant hairlebrity on here :yep:

Welcome aboard! Your hair is BEAUTIFUL by the way. These are the types of pics that make me want to go natural. :yep: I love the versatility!!

Love the pix! You've also inspired me to try the natural micros.:yep: Thanks for sharing!
Awesome! I'm glad to be a source of inspiration :)

Hello and welcome ... very versatile ... love the pixie's ... nice blog too!
Thanx hun! It's currently undergoing a redesign but I'm very proud of it:grinwink:
 
Welcome to the club and it is good to have another cottony mass of wonderfulness showing how versatile 4a/b hair can be when it is healthy! :yep:
 
Oh wow, lovely hair. How do you get your braids to show so much of your length?
First of all I just want to say that you are one of my favorite natural ladies on the net, 4b with long thick bountiful hair I love it!! As for the pixies and how i get it to show my length.....That's just the nature of Pixie braids which is one of the biggest reason's why I wanted to do this look I wanted a natural style that would show alot of my length (this look shows about 75% of my length and I could bump that up to 80-85 if I did a light tension blow-out after co-washing) that would be easy, neat and low maintenence and its all that and thensome:yep:

And I love that afro. And that top you have on in the straight hair pic is really cute.
Thanx Mwedzi!! I love my fro too I have alota fun with it, its so big now that it only has volume on the sides and not the top lol but thats ok thats what comes with length lol That dress is one of the best dresses I own:yep:

Welcome!!! Love your texture, styles, and versatility!! I love fearless women and girl you are fearless and fierce with your style.
Thanx love!! Yea you read me well, I'm definitely fearless with my style lol thanx 4 the love!!:bighug:

:lovedrool::lovedrool::lovedrool: I WANT IT!! YOU'RE HAIR IS BEAUTIFUL!! I'M GONNA BE ALL UP ON IT LIKE A DETECTIVE, JUST WAIT 'TIL I FIND YOU!!!:lachen::lachen::lachen:
hahahahaaa:lachen: lmfao! I don't mind @ all :grin:

Thank you for joining!! I'm sure many of us can learn from you...I love, love, love your twistout afro!!!! Your hair shows why I love the versatility of being natural.
Yea I just always wanna help ladies transitioning avoid the mistakes I made:yep: I was in love with it myself!! :lol: Yes its soooo versatile I can always reinvent myself they called me the cameleon @ work :grin:

I'm loving your hair & the huge twisted fro has me drooling. I LOVE big hair. With your confidence & personality, you will be an instant YouTube star! Start posting those videos girl!
This thread has really reminded me that I need to put em up I'm not gonna sit on them anymore, they'll be up shortly!! :grin:

During your transition, you never cut, exactly what does that mean, when you say you just let the perm hair fall away? How long were you relaxed & what was the length of your hair when you decided to transition?
I was relaxed only about 4 years outta my life (not long my mom never wanted me to get a perm but it was high school and i wanted to be down:rolleyes:) I realized thinning & lifeless hair wasnt for me so I went natural freshman yr of college not knowing anything about going natural other then the fact that I was dedicated to it :yep:so the first thing I did was individual braids, that grew it out nicely but at that point I didn't know what I was doing yet and as soon as I took out the braids I just washed my hair loose with like 4inches of newgrowth and long permed ends:nono: and it became a tangled mess:sad:

Eventually I learned to wash my hair in sections and that was the big turning point for me. I would wash my hair in sections condition in sections and then straighten my new growth to match the permed ends every week and I did that for like 3 years straight and let the permed ends fall away at their own pace until I had hair that was past armpit length that was natural and thick:yep:

My hair can handle heat so thats how I was able to be a straightened natural all this time, but in 2009 I decided that I wanted to show off my true texture more because when I'd tell people that they could go natural too they thought I had the "good" hair meaning the 3 range and that it wasn't an option for them so I made a decision to wear my kinky texture more and its made a huge difference for people to see me going back and forth with straight kinky and curly that it's possible for them:yep:. I also wanted to give my hair a long break from heat and I feel its really helping me with these last 3 inches till Mid-back:yep: hope I answered your question.

WOW......beautiful.... beautiful... beautiful hair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
Thanx hun!!

Your pictures are great! Welcome to the Board!!! Do you have a link for "KinkyCurlyQueen's Tutorial on Pixie Braiding" I will be doing this to my daughters hair. They are in twists now but if I can put them in cute braids that will stick without having to add in anything that would be great. I don't like weave so I am going to be using your styles for both of us.
 
Not only is your hair beautiful, but I just have to say, I really love your positive energy. :yep: I'm glad to have you here. :yep: :D Oh, and Hamira is truly my personal natural hair icon!
