1BN Kids: Banded Braids and Ponytails Happy Saturday, my blessed naturals! Today, Big Sister and Little Sister Natural were rocking their banded braids and ponytails. My sister and I took them to see the movie HOME , and they loved it! We did too! Big Sister Natural wore her flat ironed her in a ponytail at the top secured with pink and green ponytail holders. Her hair hung loose at the bottom. She had 2 interlocked cornrows in her bang area like in the article before last . Little Sister Natural wore her hair in 3 braided ponytails. She had 2 in the front and 1 in the back. Each ponytail had 3 individual braids that were all secured together with bands or ponytail holders at the ends.  Both of the girls' natural hair was blow dried before styling. Their mom used the Softee Thickening Growth Oil shown below. 1BlessedNatural: side view of Big Sister Natural's cornrow and ponytail style 1BlessedNatural: front view of Big Sister Natural's cornrow a...

1BlessedNatural: Little Girls' Natural Hair Halloween Styles Hey, my blessed naturals! I hope you all had a great Halloween! Yesterday, Big and Little Sister Natural wore their hair in some cute styles for the day. 9-Year- old, big sis was a bumblebee. She rocked a medium-size fishtail braid going across the front of her head and a banded ponytail ( banding method ) in the back. She wore an antenna headband in the part between her braid and ponytail. Little Sister Natural was a princess. Some of you may remember a previous post I did on her hair when she had the same style, but was 1 or 2 years old. She is now 4 years old, and her hair has grown sooo much since then! She wore her hair in 2 big twist-out ponytails with 1 ball ponytail holder on each one. God has blessed their mom to do all of that hair! That's for sure! LOL Here are some pics: 1BlessedNatural: side view-  Big Sister Natural's fishtail braid across head with banded ponytail 1Bl...

 T he night before last, I decided to add more flat twists to my Puff with Flat Twisted Swoop Bang style.  Because my edges were frizzy by the end of the day, I thought it would be a good idea to flat twist the sides  of my hair. I banded the back section in two ponytails. Yesterday, I took the bands off, and then put my hair in a puff.    What's your favorite hairstyle?

Happy Friday everyone, If you live on the east coast, then you may be experiencing a blizzard lol. If you do not need to be on the roads, then stay home! It's better to be safe then sorry. I hope everyone had a great week. If you've had some obstacles, God will make them work out for your good :-)  Romans 8:28 " And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."   In hair related news... last night I took out the 4 flat twists that I've been wearing. I started playing in my hair. I've done the style above with mini-twists , so I decided to recreate it without them. Tools Needed 1. Rat tail comb (optional for parting) 2. bobby pins or hair pins ( I like to use the brown bobby pins because they have smooth coating) 3. decorative clips   The Style This Faux Ponytails Updo style should be done on twist out hair. I think it looks bett...
