I love her hair. It kinda reminds me of Chili (TLC). It is similar to mine but mine is thicker and I think my edges are not as straight. Thanks for sharing. I am definitely going to try that banana clip bun. I always broke banana clips - need to revisit.
 
I wish my hair was long enough to do that bun... I don't think she is on here but I am going to ask her.
 
Is her hair natural or texlaxed? Either way she has lovely hair.

nah, she says on her site that her curls were significantly loosened through prolonged full-strength henna usage on her full length. now she just does full strength on her roots and does a gloss on the rest.

i was sorta underwhelmed by her hair from video to be honest. it looks a little stringy to me. but the photos on her site show off her hair a lot better. it looks full and lush and curly; tons better.
 
^^oh don't i just wish!! it takes just a few uses (4+) for changes to curl pattern to show. but it depends on the sort of curls you got. i'm majority 4b w/ 4a randomly throughout. i do have a dedicated 4a section in the back quarter of my head tho; this is where i noticed changes the most. what's happened is that my 4a parts got so loose i once almost wept (don't judge me :look:). absolutely no changes to 4b pattern tho. i have experienced, and she corroborates, that the changes to curl pattern happen mostly for looser curlies and not so much if at all for tigher curl patterns.

attached is an example of one of my 4a sections that's experienced curl loosening from henna. now this is not a comparison or anything (only one pic not particularly taken for this purpose), but it shows the sorts of curlies that should stay away from full strength henna if you don't want the dramatic loosening.

in the picture i see there is a bit of loosening (i can't show you a before henna cuz i wasn't documenting my hair like that) but it was still kinda jolly and happy. now it's sad and droopy just sorta hangs there. w/ nothing resembling a curl. they still clump but it's more like long droopy s-waves (not even) rather than any sort of attempt at a curl. i don't really find it pretty. i haven't used henna since end of last year when most of the curl was removed (tho i'm gonna try another brand in about a week when i take my hair down. it has other herbs incl amla so further loosening shouldn't be a prob).
