Sorry if the pics are huge, I tried to resize, but photobucket is being weird.

That looks like a bun to me. No almost about it, definitely a bun. You win the award for most creative use of a belt! So cute.
 
I will not insult you and say nappy, but your hair style is beautiful. I absolutely love the bun. :yep:
And the twists are winners too.
 
OH EM GEE!! COOL!! Can I steal that bun style? LOL.....no seriously -__- , hehe. Almost bun? Looks like a WHOLE BUN to me. Great job and HAPPY ALMOST ANNIVERSARY!
 
1.5 years? Wow!!!!! Very inspiring!

Nice bun! You're very creative with your styles!

I like your twists! It might just be the products you used for your twists, did you do them on wet or dry hair? I'm sure the experienced naturals will chime in.

HHG!!!!
 
Great progress Mandy...& YES that is a bonafied bun! Cowashing & then air drying always makes for a nicely defined and long lastinf twist out.
 
Thanks everyone for the compliments:grin:

Thank you. I twisted on dry hair. What twisting products do you recommend?
 
WOW!!!!! Mandy I am so proud of you, you stuck with your natural hair even after all the frustrations you went through, Your hair is Beautiful, and yes I agree that is a BUN and it looks good, I really liked how the curlformers looked, they looked really good to me, and you have alot of hair girl, I knew you could do it, and I bet you are so glad you stuck with it? as you can see I am doing it again hopefully for the last time...........
 
Ahhh that is a bun, they come in all shapes, sizes and color so that is offically a bun! :)

Your hair looks absolutely healthy and thick.
 
I love your bun. My hair's a few inches longer, and I can't even make mine look that good. Looking good, chicha.
 
You're so creative! I never would have thought to put a belt around my head with some bobbypins and make it cute, lol. Wonderful progress. :)
 
Thanks to each one of you ladies. Couldn't do it without you all.

Signaturebeauty, How have you been girl?... I know you can do this! You know I admire your courage and you are one of the people that really stood by me in those times of frustrations. Now I am standing by you so lets do this thing:grin:
