Of course yesterday when I tried wearing my twistout to work… it rained. Thank God it was in the evening, so I was headed home anyway, but my hair got very frizzy.

I was reminded yesterday that hair that lacks moisture frizzes. The analogy used was that a soaking wet sponge can’t absorb anymore water. That’s food for thought.

I received some “interesting” comments from random people about cutting my hair, but those get no love here.

Here are some styles I’ve tried so far. Still looking for my “go to” style. I am definitely glad I waited until my hair could go into a ponytail before I cut it.

Any style suggestions?

Last night I was trying to decide how I should have my hair for today. My first day back to work with short hair! Lol.

I contemplated playing it safe and having a ponytail or twisting it again, but with some new products. Generally when I twist my hair, I don’t use gel or any product that would give my hair a hard hold.

Last night I bought Kinky Curly Spiral Spritz. I really wanted the Curling Custard but the store was out of stock. I also bought Organic Root Stimulator Twist N Loc Gel. KaiRox143 (On YouTube) always raves about it.

I used the KC Spiral Spritz in the back two twists and it made my hair really wet and I noticed that it was shrinking my hair. That’s not what I wanted. I’ve been trying to achieve a stretched twistout. I used my Curls Creme Brulee in the rest of the twists. When I finished twisting my hair I wondered to myself why I didn’t use the ORS Twist N Loc Gel, so I smoothed some of it over my already twisted hair.

To my surprise, my hair came out exactly how I wanted it this morning. I didn’t have the heart to put it into a ponytail. Needless to say, I really like the ORS Twist N Loc Gel.

If I wasn’t going to work, I’d prob fluff it more, but I’m sure the humidity will handle that. I’m so nervous that the humidity will make my hair HUGE. *Fingers crossed* that it doesn’t.

XOXO,
