Yeah..I doubt I'll be paying $65 on a regular basis when I can twist myself. I just have a need to someone to do my hair for a change...LOL
Yeah..Combs aren't my friend. I'm too heavy handed.
Looking good Jax. It's definitely growing.
I need to DC more. I need to put it on my to do list.
Update on me:
Cowashed and placed hair in large twist yesterday. Apply my shea mix and then some ORS twisting gel before twisting. Was pleasantly surprised that I liked how the ORS made my hair feel. Will definitely use it again.
Getting my hair professionally done on Wed. Will post pics

CHECKIN: Took down the micro twists after 4 weeks. Finger detangled, washed, deep conditioned, detangled with the D3 (was lazy), air dried, then put in big twists. Will wear them for 3-4 weeks.
Here are the twists styled. Two french braids. More pics in the fotki:

This is really cute. I am taking a break from the half wigs this week and am back wearing fat twists pulled into a pony tail.

How is everyone doing? My twist are still going strong after a week of being done. Hopefully they will last for the 3-4wks like the stylist stated.
Balck top is when they were 1st done. Grey top a week later.
Have a great Valentine's Day!!!
They still look REALLY beautiful!! Happy Valentine's to you as well.

Oooop, your hair looks great.
I am putting a new set of twist in. I am starting to feel frustrated with my hair. Shrinkage is getting on my nerves. I think I am going to have to start wearing my twist in some type of up do to keep my ends off of my shoulders.

I am back to wearing twists under a halfwig. I really want to get to waist length and I think the less manipulation the better. The most growth I've ever gotten was when I did a Hide your hair challenge for 4 months using wigs.
I also tried Taliah Waajid's protective bodifying mist last week, my hair seems to like it. It worked great on my twists and on my loose hair.

Wow ladies everyones hair looks BEAUTIFUL!!! I have been MIA for a bit but not much new with my hair. I just took a 3wk old twist out for the wknd. DC'd, shampoo'd, detangled and twisted up today. I did it in 3hrs...3hrs I cant believe it! Granted they are a little bigger than normal since Im taking them out next Friday but 3hrs. I couldnt wrap my mind around it...haha!!! There are pics in my fotki if you want to check them out I will put a couple in the thread. I just purchased some Ojon Ive been wanting to try so I will let you ladies know how it goes. Ive been good on not buying anything and I probably didnt need to buy but I wanted something different. If it doesnt work I have people at work I can sell the products to!!! Hope everyone is well.

CHECK-IN: Alrighty ladies, I washed my 2-week old big twists this weekend. Pre-pooed, washed, conditioned. Before that, I had my twists in a bun for a couple days. Got the banana clip bun idea from Kimmay and her Tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ciif4oQvdXA
More pics in the fotki. After my twists airdried from the wash, I redid the front with cornrows into twists. Photos coming later.

You're so creative!!!
What's your issue with styling the front?
Checking in....
This past Wed made 2wks since I've been wearing these twist. I don't know what's in the silk2 product, but it's seriously the BOMB!! I literally haven't had hardly anything to my hair but tie it down at night. This week I've been spritzing my scalp to keep it from itching. I have to admit that I'm starting to miss my hair. I think I'll try to make it to next Wed (my 3wk mark) then take them down.
Wk 2 pics:

What do you mean? Maybe we can help you come up w/some ideas if you tell us what look you are going for and what problem(s) your hair is giving you.
Taliah Waajid is a natural stylist with a line of products. I've tried a couple of her other things before but this is by far my fav. The link below lists her products and their uses. Her products are pretty reasonably priced too.

I need to figure out a way to part my hair in the front so that it looks good pulled up or pulled back.

How are you parting now? Boxes? Grab and twist?
