Have you ever had a detangling orgasm? Well, if you haven’t let me tell you about my experience. I’ve been wearing Havana twists for a while, having them redone about every 2 months. The beauty of a protective style means I don’t need to buy any new products so getting my...
DIY Crochet Braids ...
I haven’t worn crochet braids in years although I loved the style and it was easy to do on my own. This is a style I did a few years ago. I’m thinking about getting crochet braids again. I used 2 packs of hair, color 2 and color 4/30, bulk Freetress Bohemian Braid. I later added...
First Wash – ...
I washed out my Beautiful Textures Naturally Straight Texture Manageability System treatment #TryTMS. I used only the products in the system, no extra heat protectant, conditioner or shampoo. I filmed my hair reverting back to curly here: http://youtu.be/a3UgbtysLVk I’ve tried and...
Bigodini Conici Ita...
I ordered plastic mesh Bigodini Conici hair rollers direct from Italy since I was able to get a friend to send them to me for a reasonable price. I filmed my rollerset here: http://youtu.be/mRpZ48zqOGQ I’ve seen them online for $19.49 for a 6 pack of white rollers and $19.49 for a 12...
Dabur Vatika Natura...
I picked up a new product at the local Indian store, Dabur Vatika Naturals Hot Oil Treatment, a deep conditioner, which I used prior to a rollerset. I filmed it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4PoeVuO9pk I used the treatment on freshly washed hair that was not detangled. The product...
Straight Back Flat ...
I tried another flat twist but this time I used a different pattern, straight back flat twists. I recorded it here: http://youtu.be/tGJfiZPfFws I actually like this style much better and it was easier to put the flat twists in going straight back. I think it turned out well and this time...
Flat Twist Out R...
I finally tried a flat twist out for the first time ever! I recorded it here: http://youtu.be/iHviua7cMaU Although it turned out well, it took me 40 minutes to put in 6 twists. I did the flat twist out on hair that had been in a bun. The curl pattern turned out very different from my...
Twist out with Curl...
I tried a twist out using Curl Prep Sweet Buttah and although it came out pretty defined and moisturized, it was too frizzy from my take down. I wore a wig for a few days after setting my hair in twists and took down the twists after 3 days. I should have separated the twists more...
Good Hair Days Magi...
I ended up trying out Good Hair Days Magic Grip hairpins on my 30 second bun. The pins hold a ton of hair and they are very light. I could not even feel the hairpin in my head once it was installed. I had a twist out that did not come out that well so I pinned it up. I filmed it...

My hair was not dry in time to go to brunch so I decided to wear my new wig. I filmed it here: http://youtu.be/LUFgU6ZgP6c The brand is It’s a Wig, and the style is It’s a Cap Weave Afro Curl HH (human hair). I bought a color 2. I find that human hair color 2 is much...

60 Second Wet Bun N...
I decided to try my Goody Spin Pin bun on freshly washed natural hair to see if it would look as great as the Goody Spin Pin bun done on an old twist out. I did not use a comb or brush or gel. I used only a Goody elastic band, a small comb as a “stopper” and a Goody Spin Pin....
Weaveless High ...
You can achieve a high and full bun on short to medium length natural hair without weave. One of my hair sisters uses this style and I decided to give it a try after wearing a twist out for a week. If you can twist your hair, you can do this style. Only a few inches of hair are needed....

We are going on a beach vacation soon for our wedding anniversary so I decided to buy a few new swimsuits. We are still getting snow off and on here in NYC and are excited to get away to some place warm. In case you have not used them, ASOS has free shipping as well as free returns. I did a...
Less Messy Henna an...
I decided to give henna and indigo another try but was hoping for less of a mess. My new application process (videotaped here): http://youtu.be/8nK3pPLZyp4 is far less mess than my first attempt. I found that using a color brush helped tremendously with the mess and also with getting...
