BBD - Loving your twist pin up do!

by AfrikanLatina 28th April 2010, 12:33 pm

I should've joined this challenge dangit! This along with the BAA growth challenge would've been good. I may twist myself up for a couple of weeks anyway once the BAA challenge gets underway.

I did mini twists last week that I hoped would last for two weeks and they didn't. So I resorted to spending all morning on my one day off, untwisting and detangling. It took forever!
I was ready to start back twisting and then I just couldn't. So I put in braids, they last longer (I can get at least two weeks out of them) and don't get as matted when I wash them. I didn't even make it half way! I'm bummed but I'll be cheering on everyone from the sidelines.

I totally agree kinksncurls you should still participate and try to keep the braids in until the end of May Smile

YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!

by bholmes87 28th April 2010, 2:53 pm

Ok so I didn't keep my bigger twists in all week. I made my version of mini twists instead!! Here's what I did:

1. I took one twist and untwisted it.
2. I added Soft Sheen Carson Instant Moisturizer.
3. I added shea butter (whipped with jojoba oil from Harmony on youtube.
4. I finger detangled that untwisted piece.
5. I twisted that section into 4 twists.

That's it! Here are some pictures Smile

@Nyla, I am loving RuPaul and your creative ways of encouraging everyone.

My hair is in a twisty bun. I just took my hair and twisted it around then once tight I twisted it around itself and put in a couple of small bobby pins. I think I look very grown up and professional.[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
