I absolutely LOVE it. I got the recommendation from this site, I went and made an appointment and am proud to say Feyi is my new favorite!! Anywho... picture is attached. I've got to take some more of the angles & send them to Feyi so I'll make sure to add them here!!

Oh and btw, I don't know who's signature says "SNS Curl Activator is the answer to every question" but they saved my life!! I'd forgotten all about SNS until I read that, during my last install I started moisturizing with that and when I went to take my install out... it was a breeze. I normally struggle w/ combing it out, etc. Not this time... THANKS!
 
JJ I would post pics of these braids, but they are a HAM! :lachen: You know how braids look sometimes when they're just in there for a sew-in. But I do have to announce that I can lift my braids up to the 1/2" mark on my ruler at 2 weeks. talk about STOKED!!!! :woot:
 
Nothing exciting here. Just doing wash n go's. Simple as can be too--cowash, rinse all of the conditioner out, acv rinse, use a leave in condish, moisturizer, and seal with some type of serum. I refresh at least one time a day with a spritzer. I'm working on not wearing headbands everyday and just my fro but the front is kind of special.
 
Okay ladies...I had to share the laughs with you. This is what happens when a wig virgin has her cherry popped. It's a HOT MESS! I had NO idea what I was doing and it is written all over my face. I think I will just stick to buns. I apologize in advance for any nausea that this might cause.

Are you moisturizing with anything? If you can get to it easily, maybe you can cleanse your scalp with a little witch hazel on a cotton swab/ball. That has helped me in the past.

I need to jump on your bandwagon. I really was going to throw some two strand twists in yesterday, but when I got home, I found that my water was off. Talk about somebody mad...:wallbash: It finally came back on about 3 hours later. But by then, I was too comfortable and lazy.:look:

still bunning. I broke my no heat and blow dried my hair last night. :badgirl: I didn't flat-iron. My hair is a inch longer than last time, I can really tell by my sides and bangs. So that would be bout an inch in 6 weeks. But I quickly put it back into a bun. No one saw it but me....:sekret:
Can't wait to get my weave/wig to switch up this bun.
