Bantu Knot-Out (PIC HEAVY) *relaxed*

[Barbie83]

OK so I was extra bored and restless last night, so I decided to attempt a bantu knot-out (again). My last try was......let's just say.........ummm.....NOT successful. (actually a H.A.M.)

So I tried again, this time only making 5 somewhat loose knots.

Here is the result. Doing only 5 resulted in a much wavier, looser look, which I like

The left side came out weird. I recently discovered the joy and wonders of coconut oil, and I think I got a little happy with it on that side

I liked the result so much that I pinned up the back half, and I'm rockin a faux-bob right now (I bobs). So I guess that makes it a semi-protective style

I never knew I could achieve so many different looks, without heat! I wear my hair different every day now whereas before LHCF, I heat styled it into submission or wore a tight pony everyday. I'm having so much fun with my hair

You definitely should! The loose waves would be sooo gorge with hair the length of yours.

That's extra cute. The wavy bob reminds of the look Victoria Beckham is rocking now.

Girl quit playing! Your thread is what inspired me to attempt it again. I loved your result, but my hair just doesn't seem to wanna come out right when i do multiple small knots

 

[Kneechay]

very pretty results.

i tried this yesterday when i tried to copy gabbanagirl's caruso set/bantu style. it turned out okay

I should've stopped after the bantu knots removal, it looked cute. I used regular rollers because I was too lazy to go buy carusos & it looked a mess.

how often would you do this and are you worried it'll keep rubbing against your shoulders?

 

[LadyLeoSmile]

It looks beautiful! I too have discovered the joys of different styles since joining this board.

 

[Itllbeokbaby]

it turned out very, very pretty!!! i just discovered this easy style myself. i love it.

 

[locabouthair]

It came out nice! I wanna try that.

 

[topnotch1010]

Very pretty! I think I may try it with bigger knots. I usually do lot of small knots and while it comes out ok, it's not NEARLY as pretty as yours!!

 

[hairdrama:{]

I'm l♥ving it

 

[acapnleo]

very pretty! great job

 

[doll-baby]

That turned out pretty ! I'm still trying to get the hang of bantu knots.

 

[SILKY22]
