Curl definition

It's April (month 11) woo hoo! I tried this technique using Eco Styler gel, along with a curl activator...coating each small section of hair with it, then putting a comb or detangling brush right through it.
Here are the results.

High Puff

Put my hair in tiny twists, took them out and brushed it up into a puff. Here are the results. I'm loving the length!!

Time to wash

I took out my first twa hairstyle and achieved this look. Though it's dirty and oily I loved the look. But time to wash..ciao!

My First Natural Hair Style!

It's March (month 10) and I've had my hair in braids on and off for about 5 months. I missed my hair and decided to take out my most recent braids. I mustered up some more growth and went to YouTube to find a hairstyle for my new length, and this is what I found! What do you think?

Bantu Knot

I decided to experiment with the "Bantu knot" look. I happen to prefer this look over the twist out. It's much fuller. Here are the results...

Took my braids out for a breather!

Happy New Year, or as my 4yr old would say, "Happy January!"(month 8), and though my hair should be longer (based on the hair grows 1/2in a month rule) I am pleased that I am no longer bald! Woohoo! I decided to color my hair black, since I'll be getting my hair braided again, and want to use darker hair. So I dyed my hair, twisted it, and these are the results....

Braided up

So I got my hair "did" again. This time, professionally. When I did it myself, it took me 3 days, which caused my fingers to cramp up along w/hangnails. Not fun. I'm digging the new look. The length is good, and I'm not minding the big size braids. Overall, I'm pleased. My goal is to stay in protective styles until I muster up some noticeable length.
