So... 4a/b's What did you do to your hair today? - Page 179

Ninjarette · 07-29-2011, 07:13 PM

First...I got my Claudie's haul the DAY AFTER it shipped. That's amazing. She's in Toledo, but still...that never happens. It was a good day.

Okay...what I did:
This morning? A mist of water, followed by Claudie's Braid Spray, followed by b.a.s.k Java Bean and Honey Hair Balm.

Tonite...
Lightly oiled scalp with JBCO (extra dark), and messaged temples with Mahogany Roots Root Stimulator.

Misted twists with water, followed by Claudie's Satin Daily Moisturizer, sealed with Claudie's Kpangnan Kokum Pomade, followed by Claudie's Hair Gel (to smooth down edges).

I have been co-washing more frequently. Those 3-4 day wash and gos are history. But I do it fast: condition wash with Onesta, rinse, add a little more to ends to detangle, leave it in. Add Knot Today to leave in. Mix a few drops of castor oil and a 1/4 tsp of Qhemet OHHB together and smooth over the leave in. Blot with Curls like us cloth and gel with Theraneem aloe vera gel mixed with KCCC.

this morning: spritzed the top of my hair & smoothed, added more gel, & reformed the bun I already had in from the day before lol
I love kmfumg, it doesnt build up & combs out easily even when I pile it on..
ecostyler would have my head hard as a rock.

tonight: section in four, add amla+brahmi+coconut milk.. cowash out with V05 Vanilla Mint. Leave In CJ Curl Rehab & smooth into bun with Shea/Avocado Butter =)

favoritecolorblu · 07-29-2011, 09:27 PM

Wore a ponytail. It was kinda puffish though, but that was from me using a wide tooth comb. :P so hopped in the shower and soaked my hair. I put it back in the ponytail, smoothed some gel on the top and now the curlies are more defined. I'm keeping it simple because I'm doing a six month protective style challenge. I'm 3 inches from BSL. Ugh...lol. I also spritzed my hair with my water/olive oil. Anyone know any of any gels that give the same hold as the eco styler argan oil, but not as crunchy/hard?

@montREALady im going to have to start doing those more often, but I got to work on making them a little more neat lol.

@naturalista I styled my hair with two flat twisted twisted about half way across on one side and on the other side I did some jumbo twist twisted and pinned up at the top, I was going to jumbo twist the back but I got lazy with that so I brushed my hair into a high side huge bun! To make the bun I used so marley braid hair. I got to take a pic of it I think is so cute.

Because I take them out, they're usually jacked up! Lmao! Especially the parts. But for my short hair length it's better than singles which are too spacey and stick out. Plus it takes less time which is perfect because I would retwist every night.

@montREALady yea I micro twist about 2-3 wks ago it took me 6 hrs! Lol but they were very cute even tho my parts were jacked. I just like the jumbo twist better bc when you talk them out for a twist out you hair has gorgeous loose curls

I twisted my hair last night for a twist out but decided to just pin them up, to give my hair a rest. I made the top a little puffy and just pend all the rest toward the top of my head. very simple

NaturalSassE · 07-30-2011, 06:47 PM

I have henna in now until for 2 more hours!

A curl pattern 2 die 4!!!

Just completed my first henna treatment. DC with Spiral Solutions deep conditioner and castor oil on ends. Hair is a little poofy, so will not leave henna in overnight next treatment. Maybe just 3-4 hours.

ttlolla · 07-31-2011, 08:37 AM

Did 5 flat twists to the left and about 16 single braids all over and pinned up ; hopefully I can keep it for the week, I really like it

Used Enliven pro as leave in and CES over it

LolaKinkz · 07-31-2011, 12:15 PM

Finally actually styled my hair lol. I did an updo using Loreal Everstrong anti humidity as a LI and Beija Flor Hemp buttercream as my twisting agent. My hair feel awesome. This buttercream is the ish cause the LI suxed booty.
