I‘m back with more hair shots, this time from a month or so ago before I skipped on over to my friend’s bridal shower.

I washed my hair, then twisted it into big sections securing each twists into a bantu knot to keep it stretched. When completed, I took each bantu knot down one at a time and wrapped the twist around my head, securing it with a bobby pin or two. When I was done, I ended up with “wrapped twists” per say. I then tied the front down with a satin band, then tied the entire thing with a scarf, sat under the dryer then slept on it.

Before we continue, let’s have a moment of silence for my eye makeup.

Ya’ll I got that make up FREE during the diva swap at #StLSocialMediaChicks weekend. It’s Avon & if I remember to I’ll tell ya’ll about it later.
Moving right along …
After I took the twists down they were totally stretched out, to the point where later that night I was asked if my hair had been blow dried.

This was a pretty simple style. The twists seemed to go to 1 side on their own so I just clipped them over there with my small Goody Ouchless barrette and left one out in the front hanging.

Good stretch twist option. I did a stretch twist once which was pulling twists in opposite directions. So back twists pulled to the front and right twists pinned to the left. I looked CRAZY the next morning. Just crazy!!!!!!!! Epic fail! This looks to be better.
Eyes were beat btw.
Thank you ma’am
Lol! I was thinking the same thing about the eye makeup. Ok, so not exactly the same thing, but I WAS admiring it.
Thanks
Hey dear..u r awesome..u really did well and your styles are unique
Thank you
sigh…that makeup…I am looking for your link now on how to do it…I “think” you did a tutorial about the eyes a while ago…other than that..fab as always!
Nope, I haven’ done this eye look yet. I literally followed the instructions on the Avon packaging.
That there necklace make my heart sing! lol Those are great stretching options.
LOL, thanks!
First of all just started watching your vids and reading ur blog and it’s fab and you are hilarious. Not a moment of silence! I was just having a twist issue this month that every time I go to bed w/ my bonnet on when I wake up those things are two inches shorter and looking a hot mess. This is a great way to stretch the hair and I wonder how it looks if you were to untwist it too. Thanks for this I will definitely being doing next time I twist.
