8 months Natural today!!!!!

So today marks exactly 8 months since I decided to big chop my hair. I still have no regrets I'm loving my hair and the versatility I have with my hair. I'm still rocking my two strand twists I am going to make it an effort to stay out of my hair for at least another day. HIHD (Hand in hair disease) is a horrible thing lol!!

Deep Conditioning with 2 strand twists

 So I started on my hair at 1pm and didn't finish until 7:30 pm. Why so long you may ask well, first I had to make my avocado mix. 2 avocados, Suave Humectant VO5 Tea Therapy and Free Me Fresia, Herbal Essences Hello Hydration, LustraSilk Shea Butter Conditioner. I dumped all this into my food processor until I have the creamy consistency I was looking for. I basically used the same process as before. This time I left it on my hair about a hour and a half before I washed it out. I really didn't know what style I wanted to try but because of my now hectic schedule I figured I better do a style that is going to last for a little while so mini twists it was. My hair has grown a lot in my opinion and so far I have no evidence of any heat damage from yesterday's botched straightening experiment.

Update Seriously over due

Okay lifehas been extremely busy and I have been neglecting this blog and my hair :( I just took my hair out of kinky twists and have been rocking my puff, which has definitely grown. I even successfully was able to get my hair into two afro puffs. I actually think my hair is approaching the length it was when I did my BC back in February. I can't believe it's been almost 8 months.

I actually did a twist out mohawk when I went out to celebrate my birthday. I'm so loving my hair in its natural state. Seriously never going back to creamy crack ever again. I can do so many more styles with my hair now and it is much healthier. The third picture was my very first attempt at two strand flat twists, I think I did a pretty good job. Two strand twists are my second most favorite style and I plan on doing some in the morning after I do a much needed deep conditioning. I actually straightened my hair today just to check my growth and I couldn't stand it. For one I don't have the patience to completely straighten it nor do I want heat damage, so I sort of have this semi straight natural afro going on. I'm so washng my hair in the morning straight hair is not for me I like my curls scratch that I love my curls. My hair is finally starting to grown down and hang as oppossed to the growing out and poofy look. As each month passes I am getting more and more curl definition.

2 strand twists followed by a twistout puff

4 months after I did my big cut and I am still loving my hair, in 2 months I am going to do a blow out and see exactly how big my fro has gotten. These pictures are a few days old and I am actually rocking a twist out puff. Not exactly sure what style I am going to try next but I do know one thing I love my hair in it's natural state.
The products I used to achieve this look I cowashed with QP Elasta Moisturizing Shampoo then I used Hello Hydrations Conditioner. I separated my hair in to several sections moisturized my hair with Shea butter then proceeded to twist my hair in each section. My hair took about 3.5 hours but only because I kept stopping and doing other things. I left my hair like this Sunday thru Thursday and rocked a twistout puff from Thursday night until currently. Still having issues with the middle front part of my hair. No idea what's going on my hair is completely natural but that part is straight with minimal curl pattern which kind of makes certain styles impossible to achieve. 

Coils, Coils and More Coils

Wow I have not been updating like I should be. Haven't really done many styles on my hair, just been rocking a puff or a wash and go eventually pulled back into a puff. But today I decided enough was enough. I sectioned off my hair spritzed it with some water and applied Miss Jessie's Curly Pudding section by section. I did some flat twists on each side and left the front middle undone. I finger coiled the rest of my hair and then finger coiled the front middle towards the front. I think my hair came out really nice and, I even got a few compliments on it. My hair kind of looks like I have dred locks or like I'm starting the lock process, who knows maybe I will leave my hair like this and keep tightening them and go ahead and lock my hair. Did I mention I am 3 months post BC, and I have no regrets I love the versatility of my hair in its natural state.
