A twist to the left

While shopping this weekend I saw another naturalista with a cute side swept twist look. I decided to emulate her this week.
I started by washing my hair with shampoo, wash out conditioner, then I added my oil mixture rinsed again, and finished it off with a cold aloe Vera juice rinse. 
While my hair was still damp I sectioned off the front quarter, the two sides, and a bit in the back. I then left the section in the middle for single  two strand twists. The outside sections were flat twisted with the exception of the left side to add to the volume. Bobby pins were used to keep the twists to the side.
See my results

 Tools used styling creme, rat tail comb, tangle fix, gel, scarf, and bobby pins. 

My two week blow out


I have recently been upset with the amount of shrinkage I experience. I am well aware of how long my stretched out hair is but often forget how much shrinkage changes that. I will search for a style video and attempt it and be upset and idea-less after it fails. Obviously as my hair grows so does that of the regular hair vloggers I watch so I can never catch up.
I have been really wanting to do a cute top knot and my attempts with stretched out hair failed. This was insult to injury after finding someone who's hair actually is my length. So I made the decision to blow out my hair and rocked this for two weeks. I really enjoyed this results.
