I love trying new things with my hair, so I went online and started searching for fall protective styles. I came across all of these YouTube videos on Crochet Braids. Now, I didn't know people still did these and was thinking early 90's when I saw crochet. However, to my surprise, there were some fabulous styles and great tutorials.  I honestly cannot remember the brand of hair I

Twist Out After a couple years of suggesting and pleading.....She finally agreed to let the relaxer go. NO LYE! lol The Why For various reasons, my Mom's hair was beginning to thin and break off and the harsh chemicals every 6 weeks was not helping. She finally decided to give her tresses a break and July 2012 was the last time she put a relaxer in The How Wigs are a lady's best friend!

  This is such a late post but I just wanted to share my protective style of choice I have rocked this past few weeks. YouTube was my friend on 'how to' for this one. I used the invisible root method where you are twisting from the scalp instead of the braid/twist method. It took a minute to get used to, but once you catch on its not so bad. I used 4 packs of Marley Braid Hair with

I had a lot of breakage in my hair due to perms and me not taking care of it. I’ve been natural for 1 year and 9 months. 3. How did you transition? I grew out my perm with sew-ins and cut off the last 3 inches of perm that was left. 4.

I decided to give straightening my hair another go. Its been so long I was definitely out of practice! First, I washed my hair using Miss Jessie's Super Slip Sudsy Shampoo and conditioned with their Creme de la Curl Cleansing Creme (which was buy one get one free!). I used Kinky Curly's Knot Today as a leave in. Second, I sectioned my hair and applied Beyond the Zone Smooth Criminal Thermo

Soooo...I finally decided to straighten my hair after 2 years! I was long overdue for a trim to even my hair and get rid of some pesky split ends. It was a lot easier to cut my hair straight than curly as I sometimes do. I used the InStyler and it worked great. It lasted a whole 4 days! lol. Southern humidity is a booger :( Anyway, I received great compliments and was pleased to see my hair
