Mini twist

I am going to start experimenting with mini twist for awhile to gain some growth. I have had these in for almost two weeks. I have thoroughly enjoyed them and they have made a great protective style.

Maintaining my mini-twist
• sleeping on a satin pillow case
• spritz daily with leave in condition my Jane Carter
• Seal daily with an oil
• Oil scalp weekly

Next week I will be getting them done gain and getting a trim. So far I am loving this and I am 2 years post relaxer. I still am looking forward to a lot of growth:) check out the pics below!

Been Sooo Long!!!

I haven't posted in awhile, there has been so much going on in my life and now I feel the calm after the storm. I was working in a new school district this year and it was the worst experience of my life. I am so very glad God put me in that situation and took me out of it at the same time. I am praying better things are in store for me and now I can breathe and focus on what's next.

Soooooo as for my curls, I have been spending a lot of time getting to know my hair. I tried a few wash and go's, which I love but I am going to have to get more length. I also been wearing a few low buns and a experimented with a flat iron. I will not be flat ironing again any time soon. I was able to visit the salon again and Alem at Shea Locs, hooked me up with some comb coils which I LOVED!!! It lasted for 5 days. I could have stretched it a lil longer but they started to shrink a lot. I washed my hair and took the time to prepare for a twist out. I am approaching 2 years since my last relaxer in a few days (June 10th). I am also 10 months all natural, I transitioned for 14 months before I chopped. Here a few pics below of my twist, twisted for a twist out and my comb coils by Alem. I will try to do much better to post weekly:) Happy Summer to me and Thank God for all of his blessings:)
