[zazzi]

Your hair is gorgeous! Thanks for sharing those pics.


I've been doing twist outs so far as well. I had yarn braids in for almost a month, and now I'm going to wear twists and twist outs for the rest of the winter. A wash n' go here and there, but mostly twist outs.

Thanks! Any pics of your twists/twistouts?

Wooow, Soleil, that's one gorgeous puff. It's huge!

FM, love your hair as usual And DD's hair is so cute! I need to check out those links myself. I have two little girls, 2 and 4 as of last week, both 3c and 3b respectively, and I could definitely stand to learn some more styles

I did fine with the no snip, though I did cut out a bunch of single strand knots 6-8 weeks ago or so. I will probably just let them be from this point forward though. It was way too tedious

Here's an update. I also updated my Fotki.

Crazy looking wash n go after being in a ponytail for a day or so

Straightened w/length check

Wash n Go Ponytail

Braidout

Morenita- Your hair looks absolutely gorgeous. It is growing fast too!! Thanks for sharing. I'm going to have to give braidouts a try.

I was supporting a twist out this week and I really liked it. My hair didn't get dried out or anything. Will post pics soon.
HHG!!!

I'm definitely....without a doubt updating my pics within the next two weeks. It's really bad how far behind I've gotten. I'll have pics up soon.

Love your progress!!!! I love your hair as usual! I got highlights from the Aveda solon and LOVE LOVE LOVE them! I want to straighten to check length and trim, but I have been loving my hair SOOO much lately in it's natural state that I'm kinda scared that I will get hooked on straight hair and be tryna wear that for a minute.

Thanks! You should definitely try them. I had a whole new experience wearing a braidout as a natural.

I was worried about the same thing. I didn't wash for two weeks when I straightened, big mistake! My scalp hurt so bad by the time I finally did. It was a nice change. I didn't mind reverting back at all though. I love the versatility of natural hair!!!

 

[Morenita]

yes, please! updated pics!

And OMG am I digging your highlights!!! I will monitor you closely. I've always wanted them I love Aveda products. If I go to a salon, it will be Aveda or Deva methinks.

 

[Vonnieluvs08]

Enjoying my snow day. Hope you ladies are doing well and are being safe and warm. I'm having a lazy day and will wash my hair DC, and protein treat too.

I added a few new photos to my Fotki...still stalking a couple others getting ideas for hair styles and techniques.

 

[LivinMyLifeLikeItsGolden]

Hi ladies...checking in with a quick update and comparison photos.

I plan on straightening my hair for a real length check today. Hopefully I can get through my whole head. LOL.

Big chop (with some straight ends left in...i was about to get a weave and my hair dresser didn't want to cut it too short)

Several months post big chop

Such great progress, ladies!!

Straight hair is from first week of January. The fro is from last week (a flat twist out done from a regular twist out) a novel idea! (helps my hair look less compact while not really changing the curl pattern)
