Thanks! I'm definitely going to keep growing it out, my goal is WL stretched. I would like it to be BSL curly but my curls are tight, so that may take a LOT of hair. However, I don't get a lot of wet to dry shrinkage, so we'll see....

OMG!!! Elle, both you and Izzy are gorgeous!!! The color looks beautiful and Izzy has grown quite a bit. Your curls are so defined. Do you shingle or how is this acheived? Do you wear your hair out most of the time? BTW...I like the way you name your other manes. lol I bet they have their own personalities. The video is great and the music...I like!!!

 

[wavezncurlz]

Very Pretty hair. I love how your curls frame your face.

Thank you! I don't really shingle - I either do 6-8 sections to ensure my product gets distributed, but lately I have been only doing each side, then I'll apply a little more at the crown/back. And I wear my hair out everyday pretty much, it's too short to make a ponytail (the front sides out a little). But believe me...as soon as I can make one I will be wearing ponytails for a month!

As for the music, I have the link in the details - I love those guys, you can download their mixtape for free!
