Since my hair is texlaxed it's not as fussy over the products I put in. But recently I've been using organic root stimulator carrot oil and NTM. I don't really feel any difference though... Like sometime with the carrot oil I can tell my hair is moisturized but not all the time.... Idk what to doooo!!

@EasypeaZee how about using only the carrot oil to see if its the combination of NTM?

@shortdub78 what type of medium rollers do you style with?

I still use my satin foam rollers yet these are getting to be a bit small with my APL hair even after adding the pink rods when running out. I also have my large purple rollers (I just may have to use these until my mesh rollers arrive!)

I just came in to say: I LOVE WASHING MY HAIR IN TWISTS...that is all LOL

For real, I have always taken my hair out of my twists to shampoo, then re-did them. I am going on a work trip today and I didn't have time to figure out what to do with my hair, but I knew I needed a wash and condition. So I did it and I loved it! I am letting my hair dry in a ponytail to get to stretch a little, here's a pic:

Have a good weekend ladies!

NikkiQ I would love to say I'm moving up to remy weaves and lace fronts but to be honest I'm just going to get my curly crochet braids again.

 

[NikkiQ]

You better change that ticker in you siggy then @TheNDofUO

I think I'm gonna go cowash the Celies, take them down one by one and either redo them or make 2 Celies out of each one. I'll be sure to post pics of the hot mess whenever I'm done.

Ladies before I get my workout on here are pictures of how I wore my hair today (available in the BSL 2012 Challenge too!)

@esi.adokowa I practiced and finally wore my upside down braid a season late yet I did it I really wanted to try this updo before the summer is over here in the Northeast! To achieve this look I watched a few videos last night including your Braided Bun tutorial and Naptural85's How To Easy French Braid Method. What worked for me was using my fingers to separate my hair into sections and braid up toward the front of my head.

I promise my hair looked GREAT this morning but after making room for new inventory you can tell at the end of the day its ready to come loose

1. first picture is my braid up at rear view
2. second picture is the beginning of the end of my hair wrapping around
3. third picture is a closer look at how I tucked the end of my hair into another part of the braid
4. fourth picture is my braid now loose in the front
5. fifth picture is my braid loose in the rear, here you can see the bottom half of the picture is the start of my braid from my neck going up
