I'll start! This is a twist-out updo I did this summer.

I went on an interview and this is how I wore my hair! I am still learning but I think it turned out okay!

Christmas 09, I banded my hair with ouchless bands and comb coiled the ends.

This used to be my go-to protective style while transitioning.

I am SOOOO sorry the pix are so big!!! I miss the days of my TWA!!! The first 2 pix I added 1b/27 kinky hair, the last three is my hair.

I trot out the same photos...LOL. I've wore all three styles to work. I'm a marketing supervisor.

I don't have anything to contribute as of yet, but I'm getting plenty of ideas...*subscribes*

 

[glamazon386]

I'm pretty boring. I usually wear a bun. Great styles ladies. I could use some inspiration.

 

[MummysGirl]

Still transitioning:

Airdried hair in 2 ponytails to stretch it out (@52 weeks post) and I will still do this when I'm all natural:


My trusted transition style (I plan to continue with these as a natural):


Formal for me = braidout/twistout puff, like in my avatar.

When I'm all natural, I'll be back with more

 

[Queen_Earth]

awwww y'all divas better WORK!! I am getting soo many cute ideas up in here!

Thanks guys! I usually use a creamy leave in (Trader Joe nourish spa condish or KBB) then a little coconut oil then gel. The 3 gels I've tried so far are KCCC, IC fantasia with sparklites, Ecostyler in the clear jar. They all give the same look, some just last longer

 

[mrsjohnson75]

I luv ALL of these styles! Thanks ladies

 

[Eclass215]

Here's my bun, the ppl at the office loved it.

I love this! Can you tell me how you did it please?
