My first curlformer set. I think I will do this more in the winter because I sweat too much in tx summers.
 
Im not about to post my anorexic thin hair but I just HAD to tell ALL of you ladies that you and your hair are ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL.
 
I have been practicing doing a fishbone braid. Just playing around before going to bed. I think I will do it on stretched hair and looser next time.

More pics

First 2 are from a flat twist out on flat ironed hair. I flat twisted hair rather haphazardly as you can see from the asymetrical bob look:grin: The ends I put on the smallest satin rollers(I do not know the size) *Before flat twisting and rolling I used a little moisturizer

Second 2 are from today's curlformer set with long/narrow. I used 86 curlformers. I tried to make them small enough that I wouldnt have to separate them after drying. They were absolutely horrible to sleep in so I DO NOT suggest it:)

Yesterday's Wash and Go.


ETA: I used Kera Care's Natural Textures Leave-In and Defining Custard. The first picture is my wet hair and the second picture is after my hair dried.

Girl I would have loved to see 86 of those things on your head! :lol: I look crazy with 15 of 'em on!
 
I did a flat twist out on roller set hair. Unfortunately, it's hurricane season and that doesn't mix with stretched hair. :look:

used a scarf to smooth out the front:

LOL I just found the pics the morning after my big chop! Slept on, and ruffed up. As you can tell by the expression on my face, I was not too happy.:lachen:

Unfortunately my camera was stolen and I dont have any current pics but thanks to LHCF my head is in better shape!

How can one prevent something like this? Maybe not in 100% humidity, but would things like oils and anti-humectant pomades work in places with less humidity?

Yeah 100% humidity=raining...so nothing I could really do about that. As for regular humidity which is somewhere around the 60s (it's supposed to be nice on Sunday, no T-storms but 70% humidity) the only thing to do is bring a scrunchie.

I don't think there's anything that keeps my hair from expanding. There was CHI Silk Infusion on it in that pic. My hair likes to be big and no product is going to make it do any different.
 
hairsothick Please tell me how long that took! I MUST know. I was just sayin in the newly natural thread that i couldn't imagine doing twists that small and you DID IT!

-PYT A day and a half. Lol. I worked on it for about six hours one day and 8 hours the next day. This includes breaks/naps, etc.

Ok, just finished these mini twists. Took about 2 hrs. They're not that small.

I braided the roots.
