Thanks Lynnie!! All I used was Herbal Essences Totally Twisted and EVOO to seal. I'm learning that keeping things simple tend to work best

Thanks ladies!!

Twist out from 2 weeks ago:






Last weeks twists did on stretched, dry hair, they looked so much better after I wet them the next morning






Besides working on my twisting skills nothing much has been going on with my hair. I really like two strand twists especially since it's starting to get colder, and with me being so busy, it saves a lot of time in the morning. I'm hoping to retwist my hair today for the upcoming week and I'm going to try it on damp hair instead of dry, stretched hair. Hopefully I'll be able to upload some pics this week. But that's all for now

Great update, the hair is looking great! Keep up the good work!

Hi mstokes....

I like my twists on wet hair. I twist on wet, and seal for 2 to 3 days and the definition is awesome. (a little soft, but okay) My twists on wet hair is to die for.

I like your damp twists as well. Your hair is really growing!!! So what is the longest length of time that you've left your hair twisted?

Loving the pics!

Originally I was planning on straightening my hair thats why I stretched it out so much, but I got scared lol. I was going to retwist tonight but I did a bentonite clay mask and just loved loved loved my results that I couldnt bear to twist it back up just yet lol.

This is actually the longest I've kept my hair fully twisted. I did it last Sunday and took it out on Saturday.

My hair has grown so much, I was playing around with it when I was banding it last week and the front is almost to the tip of my nose!!

It amazes me how much my hair has grown in almost 7 months!!

Yes it is...you are doing a great job with taking care of you hair!! I should take more length check pictures...oh well. LOL

Today is Spirit Day in the GLAAD community, and I have many friends that are gay or lesbian and the cruelty against homosexual people is absolutely ridiculous! I never thought it would affect me so much, but it does. No one deserves to be mistreated period. Especially not because of their sexual preferences. What if every gay person attacked straight people solely because we were attracted to the opposite sex? People would be losing their minds! It's just not right. I don't have time to go on and on about it, but it gets to me soooooooooooo bad. So today is Spirit Day and I wear Purple to support and remember those who took their own life's because of the evil, stereotypical, insensitive, haters in the world. It will get better. NO H8.

We need a like button on here. if we did I would push it.

Ditto!

Your hair's doing well and growing growing growing. Good luck in the military.

Congrats on joining the Air Force, and I'm happy to read your No H8 message. I'll certainly be forwarding this along.

Your hair is looking miiiight cute, as well! I need to have you come down to conduct some in-person styling lessons, because these are so awesome!
