Ok, so today was my bad hair day :-( I washed, deep conditioned, moisturized, and two strand twisted my hair on Friday. I was happy with my twist out; there was not a lot of shrinkage. But, a day later the rain came :-( I grabbed an umbrella but I decided that was one of the joys of natural hair right??!! You don't have to worry about messing up your hair???! However, I woke up this morning with my shrunken baby fro :-( I attempted to style my hair this morning, but really wasn't in the mood. I put on a stretchy headband, but ended up taking it off later on in the day. I should have actually rocked a hat or hair net (accessory) I don't think my hair looked bad, it just wasn't doing what I wanted it to do lol. Oh the joys of natural hair! Despite my bad hair day, I wouldn't trade it for the world :-) LOL  Thanks for listening ladies :-) I had to vent! lol                   ...

My Fro 3 months after Big Chop  Hey everyone, Last night, I decided to stretch my hair after my wash. I did something similar to the Pineapple method. I parted my hair in about 8 small sections. It was similar to the method Dejah used called "Pineappling."I moisturized my hair using Coconut Oil (too much of it lol), shea butter, and IC Hair Polisher.  I grabbed the hair and twisted it around like a pin curl (in each section) and put a bobby pin in it. I will post pictures of the method soon. I was very happy with the results. But, I used too much of the Coconut Oil. I learned some great tips from "The Natural Haven ." about using Coconut Oil as a moisturizer.
