**How Are You Wearing Your Hair Today?!!** Pics!

I had microbraids and kept them in for a month...I couldn't take it any longer.

I didn't go to a braiding shop so I only paid $100. Girl, my college days are far over and I'm still broke....LOL The braider started with a twist and the hair style itself does't have a long expected life. my edges are healthy and strong and I was about 11 weeks post so my edges looked a mess and I am too self conscious about my hair. Everyone was telling me it looked cool but not in my eyes. you know we tend to me or critical of ourselves. I also think she used too much hair....so I wasn't crazy about them in the first place. I may have to break down and give the african braiders my money....ugh!


lol the lady that usually braids my hair only charges me 80:grin: and it looks like that!!! I know when it starts to look funk to yourself its like its gotta go!!! Before it starts to look funky to other people!!

OOOH, you just gave me an ideal!!! first off....you hair looks and will look good!!! :grin: what length is your hair straightened? I think on my next roller set I'm going to bite the bullet and pin my hair going to one side. I said bite the bullet cuz i be so fearful of combing out/destroying my curls. :lachen:

Your pics are fine....some times i get so sick of having to download my pics from my camera to my harddrive, then have to upload from the harddrive to tinypic.com...UGH!!!!! there has to be a better way...anyone know of any? hehehe
 
Thanks! My hair is a little past SL straightened but the curls you see are from a spiral set I did back in June...I'm hoping my curls will hang a little lower when I remove the rollers I have in now. I normally pull it back on one side a couple of days into the set when the curls start to fall..but it normally doesn't mess the curls up too bad. I don't even comb it just pull it back with my fingers :yep:

Oh and I hate resizing pics!! So sorry ladies!:lol:
 
Aww thanks Prissy- the french braid, I just used some yaki braiding hair and braided it right into my own hair.

SelfStyled- That french braid is gorgeous. I so have to learn to do these on my hair.

Adaoba2012 - I love your curls. They look so shiny and healthy.

Here's my lazy style for today. I apologize for the blurriness but I had to use my cell phone.

Heeeey! Just cornrowed my hair with extensions. I am so excited to be able to leave my hair alone for the next few weeks.

WOW!!!! thick and super pretty? I can't do a bun to save my life.

That is one sexy bun. Hmmm.... That's sophisticated hair porn :lick: not the top shelve stuff :yep:


Thanks so much guys. Before last June, I had NEVER worn a bun in my life, didn't know how to do them, and actually thought that they were "blah". But, since I've been struggling, practicing and learning from ladies here, I've done a complete 180. I'm so excited about my buns these days. Soon, I'm going to try the "all the way on top of the head bun".

Anyway, thanks again for the compliments -- it means so much.
 
A horrible twist out....in a ponytail. I'm not sure what happened....:ohwell:

TGIF!!!!!! have a wonderful weekend my lovely ladies!!!!

Last relaxer was Sep 08, but still transitioning and you can see both textures.

I tried to do a cowash on my transitioning hair (what a detangling nightmare :wallbash:) and I put it in a bun - tried to anyway. :look:
Still working on taming the fly aways.

LOVE YOUR CURLS
 
This was the day before yesterday, but I'll be wearing it like this again today. It puffs up a lot and shrinks since it's quite humid now and has been drizzling a lot. But I like it even then. I love my hair. :love:

A bun, a braid, or a twisted updo.

Oh Mwedzi, I :love: your hair, too!
 
Day 2 of my best braid-n-curl so far. I'll try to make this last another week.
There was an uneven mullet growing on my head, so I trimmed 3 1/2" off the back. Hopefully, it will grow out more evenly this year.
