Thank you @Aireen. It was quick :lick: today if I must say so. lol. ETA: It was so :lick: that I had to take a pic while it still looked fresh (was at work).
 
Thanks Nix08! There's a member here who had a pigtail pic in her siggy and I couldn't wait for the day that I'd be able to do that!
 
Just applied my Bee Mine sulfur for the first time this year. Its on like hot buttered popcorn! If I want to be remotely close to APL by Dec 2011/Jan 2012...no more shuckin and jivin.

Having these MBL yarn braids made me realize that updos are so much more fun with thicker and longer hair. Besides the hair getting caught in things, I can see why alot of the MBL and beyond ladies really like to PS the majority of the time. :yep:
 
It gives me the illusion of a very short cut..which I like

my hair is 3 inches and I find when its stretched out it looks a bit porcupiney

I do my twists wet but they are still a bit too stretched out for what I am trying to acheive

Man I wish I had that problem. Too stretched out. Bleh! Wanna trade?? It doesn't matter what I do, my hair shrinks like crazy lol
 
Nix08 - same as yesterday (the one in my avatar) but it's on the side. I'll try to snap a pic during lunch. I suck at self pics. BTW, loving your bun!

Thanks:grin: It is a divachyk inspired banana clip bun:yep:

The bun in your avatar is on simply air dried hair or did you do something else. All these bun questions, I guess I'm starting to like them more and more...especially done with the banana clip:yep:
 
@Itgirl, so twist on dry then wash the twists. Or rewet them after you twist on wet and then towel dry, before letting them airdry. I bet you'll have the most shrunken twists (and resulting twistout) you ever had. :giggle:
 
Nonie

I have thought about that and I will likely try it next wash day

The reason I hesitate is because I anticipate washing the twist after will make them fuzzier and therefore the twistout fuzzier

and I add leave in and gel while twisting to make the twistout hold during the week and washing after would wash out the products

Itgirl I don't think one wash will make them fuzzy, unless you don't do good twists or you're rough with them. And I didn't even mean "wash" like trying to get dirt out. I meant, wet them...like dunk them in water and then towel dry. Or CW....Smooth conditioner over them and rinse.

If you twist the way I keep preaching, bottom pics show how the twists look after the first CW:

Nonie

I wouldnt mind if you link to how you twist...please :)
I might do an oil rinse coat them in oil and then in water...

spritz with a glycerin-based spray. that will help.
 
So I just spoke Jane Carter from janecartersolutions. She is the sweetest person EVA. I cant wait to try her products:)
