Twist Out Fail...Revamped

So last Sunday afternoon I washed my hair and then placed it in 12 twists in hopes of a super cute twist out the next day. I figured that since I washed my hair earlier in the day and didn't use too much product that I would be good to go for the next day. Well that didn't work as planned, I was at my desk at work and my best friend came over to tell me hey...she walked up and asked if everything was ok. Knowing her I answered and said yes but saw that she had a very puzzled look on her face. She burst into laughter and said ummm grab a mirror and there it was a fro on one side of my head and the other side with perfectly twisted out hair lol. All I could do was laugh as well and beg her to help me twist it up so I could at least make it through the rest of the work day. I came home and then braided my back into those same 12 braids...and rocked them the whole week. One of my friends had a bridal shower this weekend and when I took the braids down I hoped that my braid out would be well defined and on point...and for my sake it was. Peep the pics below!

PS I'm not mad in these pics I promise...it's just somewhat awkward taking selfies in traffic...I swore the both days I snapped these a car was right next to me.

Top Knot Wedding Hair

One of my good friends got married last weekend and I knew that I would be running around before and after the ceremony so I figured that I needed to keep my hair frizz free and out of my face. I attempted a ponytail roller set but again still couldn't manage to get my whole entire head under the dryer ( but I did roll my hair in under an hour so I'm getting better lol) Anyhoo, I washed my hair and placed it in three jumbo twists and then pinned them around. I used eco styler olive oil (green) for the best hold and a tad of the ORS honey and Shea butter twist cream( it smells devine!)

Mini Twist Out

Alrighty so I took my twist down about a week ago (that song pops into my head every time I say that lol) anyhoo I attempted a braid out but ended up with a puffy hot mess of hair later that day. I tried the following night to twist my hair and the next day ended up with poofy hair. My last attempt was wearing my hair in twists. I untwisted my hair on Saturday for my next wash and ended up with the best twist out. Just my luck right!?! My good friend is getting married this weekend coming up and I'm praying to the Twist out hair Gods that my twist out is super defined and frizz free.

Twists Update Week Four

Still rocking my twists! I went to Vegas this past weekend and the heat was insane, I picked up some nice and frizzy hair around the outer edges of my twists, but I'm still going to rock them another week. This month with my mini twists has flown by, but I am ready for a change. So here's to another week of frizzy twists and super messy buns!

Twist Update

It's been almost two weeks with my twists, I went to the Bahamas on a cruise and expected for my hair to get a bit frizzy but it hasn't frizzed as much as expected. My hair is still really moisturizerd from using the Shea butter to twist it but I plan on adding coconut oil to my scalp tonight before bed.

PS happy first day of September! I love the "ber" months because it always means that my two favorite things are near fall and my birthday. I think that it's just something so beautiful about the fall of the year. I can wait to crochet and wear my beanies and scarfs!!!

Return of the Mini Twists

I have been working like crazy and have a few vacations that I will be on for the next month so I installed a set of twists...and in a record time of 9 hours. I haven't done much to them since last week but a ponytail is my go to style when it seems like I'm covered in twists.
