Flat Twists and Twist Out

Happy Thursday everyone! I hope that your are having a great week. I just want to remind you and myself (lol) to let God fight your battles and stay in His word, regardless of the way things appear. He will see you through :-) "Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! Many are they that rise up against me. Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah. But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head."- Psalms 3:1-3 In hair related news... last night I put a diagonal part in the front of my head, and created 4 flat twists... two going down each side. I put the rest of my hair into two-strand twist pin curls. This morning I unraveled them. When I pin curl or bantu knot my hair, I make sure that I apply a moisturizer to my ends before wrapping them around. Do you wear flat twists?

Careless Natural Hair Week

Happy Sunday everyone! I hope you all had a good week. If not, I pray that it gets better. This week, I was sick. But, thank God that I am feeling much better. I shouldn't be, but Isaiah 53:5 says that I am healed! In hair related news, this was a three-day old twist out. I went to sleep with my hair this way and fluffed it out in the morn. This week has been a careless hair week. I wore hats and old twist-outs for the most part. Since I cut my hair, it has kept the definition of my twist-outs longer than normal. Did you have a careless hair day this week?

Sunday Update: Wash Day

Happy Sunday everyone! Today, I washed my hair with my Castile soap mixture . I cut a little more of the damaged ends from my bang area and crown. My hair is still not as short as I thought it was (after my trim). "... And the angel of the Lord came again the second time, and touched him and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee."- 1Kings19:7

Hey everyone, Thank God we have made it through the week! This morning, I applied Jojoba Oil and Coconut Oil to my hair and unraveled the two-strand pin curls. I was pleased with the results. Tonight, I plan to Pineapple my hair to keep the twist-out. Tomorrow, I may do a faux hawk.

After Heat Damage: Two-Strand Twist, Pin Curl Style

I was trying to do a two-strand twist, pin curl style before, but I didn't like the way it looked. I decided to give it another try.   Tools You Need 1. hair pins 2. wide-tooth comb (optional) 3. moisturizer and oil 4. hair clips (to section)   Hair Preparation I moisturized my hair with Cantu's Coconut Curl Cream; I sealed my hair with Castor Oil. Directions 1. Part hair in small sections. 2. Two-strand twist the section 3. Take the end of the twist and wrap it around your finger Then lay it flat to your scalp. 4. Use two hair pins to keep the pin curl in place Next time, I might try to do these with Aloe Vera gel or Eco Styler to give it a neater look.
