I'm so proud of myself...I did my own hair (PICS)

Soft, shiny, long beautiful curls and hair! It looks very pretty. Just like silk!

This is going to save me a ton of money! At first I thought about reverting back to a pj...lol, but I've decided to actually use this opportunity to save! I've committed myself to using up all of my old products before I go buy anything new :yep:.


I don't have one! I really haven't been consistent with anything. My original regimen included moisturizing and sealing every morning and night, and always dc'ing with heat after each wash. I try and make it a habit to always tie my hair up at night. Here lately, I've been really lazy, but every night since I did my hair on Saturday, I've been moisturizing with NTM and sealing with coconut oil (which are two staples of mine). As far as poo's and dc's, I'm going to use whatever I have on hand! I'll tell u anything else u want to know! For nearly 6 months, I have gone w/o and dc's :blush:, because my stylist never did it, partially because he didn't bring it up, and I never wanted to spend more than the $45+ tip I was already spending. I'm going to get back with it now though!


I'm sure it will turn out great! I would love to see pics when your done!!!


I've been natural since maybe 2001 I think! It was something that I just did without giving much thought...I wasn't that into hair back then, just decided to stop getting relaxers!

I used Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Anti-Humidity Smoothing Milk on each section before blow drying it, and a little CHI Silk Infusion on each section before flat ironing. After flat ironing, I just rolled with the flexi rod.

The NTM doesn't revert your hair?

My hair does get poofy during the day! I moisturize, seal, and oil at night. In the morning when I take out the rollers it looks better!

I just took some pics below to show you how it looks now. Sorry about the poor lighting!

No. I use a VERY small amount...like a dime sized amount on my entire head. Maybe that's why...I'm not sure!

Just watched your tutorial and did my flexirod set. I think you should keep it up on Youtube for others to watch & learn. If it comes out decent I'll post a pic.

I will keep it longer. I probably won't take it down because everyone has asked me not to lol

Please do :)
 
Love it, love it!

This is exactly how I want my hair to look when I straighten/flat iron/curl it, but it just ends up going straight on me. I am washing my hair today, so I will definitely pull out my flexi rods again. I think the key is to leave them in a good amount of time.

Thanks for posting!
 
OMG Your hair looks amazing! I like the soft curl that you got after the flexi rod takedown It looks so soft and beautiful..congrats!
