Weekly Protective Styles

So last week I wore my hair in two large braids and was told by everyone that I looked like a kid, I pulled my hair up and pinned the braids around into a halo. I'm currently sitting here with my hair in twists but I promise I will post a pic of the takedown. Meanwhile here is a throwback pic to the week after Christmas of my hair, I didn't post the pic because my eye was super red and irritated because of a rouge contact.

Perm Rod Set

Happy New Year! So I washed my hair and prepared it for a perm rod set on Wednesday. My friend's were getting married on Friday and I wanted to make sure that my hair had plenty of time to dry. I used the teal perm rods(purchased from the beauty supply store),eco styler gel and lottabody wrap lotion. I kept them in for two days, I was actually able to sleep with them in and my hair turned out really good. I had a little bit of product that flaked in my hair but it turned out well. See the pics below.

Flat Twist

So I've always wanted to wear a nice flat twist out because it seems to be the best of both worlds, I can wear the twists and then as a twist out. So Sunday I spent a good hour detangling my hair and decided to do a few flat twists. I have a wedding to go to next weekend and I'm trying to stretch my hair and I also wanted it to look nice for Christmas. I used the ORS honey and shea butter cream to twist my hair.

P.S. Excuse my tired I look in this pic, I snapped it this morning. We are having the worst thunderstorms in Atlanta and boy did they keep me awake.

Birthday Hair

So I turned 30 and had an amazing time, but first let's discuss my hair. I had planned to straighten my hair since I was off of work three days prior to my actual birthday. I figured one day I would wash it and blow it out, the next day flat iron half and then finish the following day. Armed with all the proper tools I completed everything in one day....bad idea. It was unusually warm in Atlanta like in the 70s(for this time of year)and my hair had me burning up and sweating like crazy. So I attempted to put it in a ponytail and that took a good 45 minutes. I was frustrated, hot and my hair was starting to puff up on me. I grabbed my lottabody mouse and placed my hair in 12 braids for a braid out. Y'all I tried, I really did but the straight puff hair won and I felt defeated. But the braid out of course was super cute. And now I've been rocking these two braids in my hair since Sunday. So that is the story of my semi straight hair. See the pics below. I don't have any pics of me with these two braids but stay tuned.
