Today I wore my hair in a ponytail with a huge puff. This was the first time I changed my style in weeks! I’m actually not bored of my textured bun, I just wish it was a little easier to style. Sometimes during the day, I notice that a piece has come out of place and a twist is practically sticking out. Not cool!

In any case, I had no clue what to do with my hair tonight, so I decided on doing two big cornrows. I’ve noticed a lot of people achieving great braidouts from doing this. I’m not really interested in wearing my hair out, but it seemed like a great way to braid my hair up for the night, so we’ll see what kind of results it yields. I think I did it a little too tight though because my head hurts. I also think my head is getting more tender, so I have to be careful.

XOXO,

One of my favorite go-to transitioning styles was a “two strand flat twist out” because it was easier to camouflage the two different textures.

I actually haven’t done this since I’ve been 100% natural because I knew it wouldn’t look the way I expected it to look. This past weekend I decided to revisit the style. Instead of twisting it straight back like I always did in the past, I twisted it the way I wanted my hair to fall.

I twisted my hair while it was wet, as I’ve always done. Of course, it wasn’t dry the following day. Surprise! Surprise! I just knew it would turn out disastrous, but to my surprise, I was very pleased with the results. My hair came out fluffy, but still had great definition.

XOXO,
