What had happened was… I was planning to leave my twists in for another week, but on Sunday I got up to go to church and messing with my hair caused me to be late for church.

I realized that the twists are cool, but they still need to be styled somewhat. That is something that I can not commit to doing during the week, so I went back to my trusty bun. The most I do with my hair during the week in the morning is smooth down my edges. I do my bun and gel down the front from the night before. Leaving at the crack of dawn is no joke and to be honest, those few extra minutes of sleep are more important than my hair. =)

Remember my puff in August?

Here’s my puff now!

I completely forgot to post about my wash day after the last set of twists. It went great! I actually started untwisting my hair on the ride home one day.

When I got home, I doused my hair in coconut oil as my pre poo as continued untwisting. I must say, it was soooo much easier to take out than put in. I had no difficulty untwisting my hair, even without the coconut oil. That was just an added bonus.

My concern was that I would miss a twist (you know I’m good for that) and find it a month later when it’s starting to loc. LOL.

For the most part, I caught all of the twists. There were about 4 that I discovered as I was washing my hair. Those were harder to take out because my hair was already wet and had shampoo in it. I used Kinky Curly Come Clean for that extra clean feeling.

I had them in for about a week, so I think it was worth the trouble. If my scalp didn’t get dirty so quick, I would probably be able to keep styles much longer.

Here’s a pic of the thinness of my current twists. Are they not mini twists? Lol
