How's everyone been? I tried a style for my valentines date tonight and I'm loving it! This is called the "twist & curl". Products used were: water, Shea moisture restorative conditioner, and ampro olive oil gel. I had in a protective style for about 3 days, and got tired of it. Lol. Anyone who knows me, knows that I love switching up my styles, I get bored with the same things.
How I created this style:
Sectioned the hair, and sprayed ends of hair with water. ( Not to much because my hair shrinks up ALOT! I wanted to keep some length) I applied the Shea moisture restorative conditioner from root to tip, and then finger combed it through. (My ends are the driest part of my hair and I have to moisturize them daily.) I then proceeded to apply the ampro olive oil gel (not a lot of the hair will get crunchy) and two-strand twisted the hair. I used perm rods, purchased at my local beauty supply store and rolled up the ends of my hair until the rod reached half of the twist. Did this all over my head, put on my bonnet & enjoyed my night :-)
This morning, I took out the perm rods first, untwisted the twists and then separated the hair and fluffed. Voila! Fabulous, cute twists with curls. I think this will be my go to style for the summer :-) ill be wearing this for the next couple days until its time for a wash.
Let me know if you have questions!!!
