I wish I was better at taking self pics with my camera but here's my contribution from today (after taking 100 shots). I airdried yesterday and at night did 6 two strand twists that I then bantu'd in place...hope that makes sense.

Nearly bald! LOL! I just did another big chop. After an over processed relaxer (it was supposed to be texlaxed, but my stylist left the relaxer on too long) that ruined my hair I'm back to natural! I really missed my chunky fros, twists, shrinkage, etc...
 
Skin looking so smooth. What do you use on your skin if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks for the compliment. Every other day I scrub at night with an apricot scrub, dry with a damp washcloth, then apply 100% shea butter. On the days I don't scrub, I wash face with African black soap, then dry with damp cloth and apply 100% shea butter. I also don't like makeup, so all I wear is lipstick.

HTHs :)
 
Here is my right now hair. Its been stretched in a ponytail for about two days now. Its very dry..needs a protein treatment..but this is it!

This is the first time that I have ever taken a picture exclusively of my hair.

It's just twists in a bun. My hair is slightly longer than APL in the back layer but is only sl in the front (hence the clips).

@ Winona, really cute, do you mind telling me how you do it and what type of banana clip is it?

thanks

g.lo

Okay I am going to try and explain as best as I can:)

Step 1
Wash/Condition hair

Step 2
Add leave in, sealant and whatever else you like

Step 3
Smooth hair back into a ponytail with you hands
Your hands are going to form an O around your hair

Step 4
Slide the banana clip around your O (think pac man < )

Step 5
Remove O and your hair should be secured by the banana clip at this time

Step 6
Twist up loose hair(about 5-6 twists) and pin around banana clip or fan it around banana clip

Step 7
Secure your hair with chignon net around the banana clip. This will hold hair that is too short to into ponytail without the tension on the ends.
