Everyday Hair...The Pretty, The Nappy, The Crazy...Post Your Hair RIGHT NOW!!!

Naptural85's stretched wash and go method has been my saving grace since my hair has gotten longer. No more smedium sized twists that take 2-3hours to do! This is an old pic but once I take my hair down I'll update

ETA: this pic was day 1 hair it had the power to get bigger!

I will be doing a twistout for tomorrow...

I did a curlformer set to stretch my hair and then braided for a braid-out. It feels nicer to me than a set done on blowdried hair, but you can still see some of the spirals from the curlformer. So for today, I guess it's a spiralled braid-out :lol:

geejay - what product(s) did you use to set your hair on the curlformers? how long did it take to dry?

Poohbear Your blowout :lick:.

For curlformers, I prepped my hair with conditioner and oil, and then aloe vera gel to have slip for installing the curlformers. Oh, and a spray bottle of water to make sure my hair is nice and wet and slippery going into the curlformers. But I've done the set with just water too...still comes out nice. I'm not trying to make the curls cast iron...just use it for stretching purposes. My hair dries pretty fast, so 30-40 minutes under my bonnet dryer does the trick.
 
Fresh out the shower with conditioner texture shots.

I wish I could wear my hair like this at work. Sigh.

Last twist-out for the summer (possibly). My plan is to bun it for the summer. It's too hot here in Texas to wear it out!:nono:
 
cut about 5 inches off this weekend preparing for my BC (well more like MT-major trim) later this year when the remaining relaxed ends (about 4 more inches) will go. Went from WL to slightly above BSL stretched. By the time i finally get rid of my remaining relaxed ends my hair should be about this length or 1-1.5 inches shorter, I'm ok with that. I like that the entirety of my length is thick and I've gotten rid of the thinning relaxed ends but updos are harder. Pic is from a semi wash n go, on spritzed hair.
