TerraD, MM, Life and Brazilian Blowouts!

I passed! LOL, I am officially a California resident!
@ChrsLvsBks: I will definitely post pics even if it looks horrible, LOL
@Winnielours: Wow, Bomb Diggity! We are all so wrong, with our slang!

Congratulations!!!

Thanks LOL! I was extra nervous!

So the trial bday hair run... Here are pics. First:

My henna came! Ooh-Ooh! Ooh-Ooh! Ok Here are the pics you were waiting on!




LOL, The last pic looks like my hair the night after prom! A hot mess!
I slept on my hair (Bad girl!), so when I put it up it looked a little flat, but it worked. I think I am going to henna, DT and bantu knot. When I take the bantu knots out they will be tighter than my twist out will be. And then I can still twist the back up, pin and end with a newer fresh Frohawk-ish style.

i like the look...did you just pin up the back?

oh and congrats!

hey i know its been a min since u did your flat twst and curl i so wish i could do flat twist, everytime i do them they look like crap. so i am trying just reg twist tongiht, but dont have the correct clips using hair pens. If it looks ok will post pics, if u dont see any u know why ha ha

Winnielours: I kinda twisted it up and pinned it with two bobby pins. I just learned how to maneuver bobby pins properly, so I don't need 50! LOL
w8tng2bnatural: LOL. It took me a second to get it, but my curls come our more even that way, as opposed to two strand twists. I used the curlychronicles video to learn!

Thats a cute style Terra. Definitely b-day hair material. Me likey.

Thanks Siren! I think it will look nice after henna-ing, deep conditioning and bantu knotting! LOL

TerraD - how often do you deep conditon? I am concerned about my increase of fairy knots.

I don't deep condition often, I know it's bad. I have to find time to squeeze it in! Right now only 1-2 times a month! I'm trying to increase that to once a week.

I just mixed my first batch of henna!!!! I will put my details in my henna thread! But I am anxious to apply it!

Also I'm stoked about my bday activities! Friday night I'm going to an "After Work Mixer" held by BlackNLA! Here's the link if you live in the area and want to check it out (you have to RSVP): http://www.blacknla.com/Mixer/Bus_Mix.asp

And on my day morning (saturday) My aunt and I are going to a free vegan cooking class Woot! They are going to teach me how to prepare a vegan Christmas menu that will knock the socks off of my non-vegan friends! Yay and then we're going to dinner at California Vegan and bowling Woot! I still can't believe I'm about to be 25!
Know God just needs to send my husband LOL

Have a great day ladies!

I ordered henna from butters-n-bars, I chickened out and exchanged it for different product, i am gonna wait a lil longer in my transition to henna, my conscience kept telling me to wait so I am glad I acknowledged

Oh yeah, when you get that gut feeling-- Trust it! It may be better to hold off a little longer!

lol your bday festivities sound off the chain! Where are you bowling??? The LOL Comedy Festival is going on and tomorrow night is supposed to be really good Chris "Kid" Reid, Red Grant, Chris Spener (my absolute fav!), and Thea (lol!) at the 9:30 show... so exdcited! And its free!

And Saturday is Koinonia and Koffee at West Angeles...it's all spoken word but clean and some gospel - I'm excited. They have an awesome Bible study on Tuesdays and this should not disappoint...

So I just realized that I offered you my weekend plans and you didn't ask LMAO. I thought you were going to Disneyland still and I was going to tell you that it was supposed to rain. And six flags is free with a donation of a toy :-)

oh and I spoke to God and he said your husband's still not ready for the greatness that is you yet... he's getting ready though and he'll be there right on time ;-)

d.denise!!!!! I love you girl, that last sentence hit the spot! LOL. We may have to come to the Comedy FEstival afterwards! And saturday what time is the Koinonia & Koffee? We have no clue where we are going to bowl. Where do you usually bowl? My aunt is in the other room calling every bowling alley in LA

Hi Cali resident, I really like the hair up, it looks really nice. Have a happy Bday.

ummm I think its at 7ish but I could have made that up. It's 12 or 15 bucks though. There may be food... Clearly I dont know much lol.

And I usually bow at Lucky Strike - LA LIVE - BUT only on Sundays lol. It's $1 bowling on Sundays. It's fun on the weekends but it may be a little pricey. so IDK. I may check out that mixer;... looks fun I love the Falcon!

Thanks! My aunt settled on bowling in Studio City, so we will hopefully have fun.
I will be at the mixer for sure. They want attendees to bring a toy to donate for charity! So I have to hit up target in the morning! Maybe I'll see you there! This is my first time at the Falcon!

[size=12]Have a great time celebrating your 25th birthday! Your plans sound wonderful.

I like that you are going to cook vegan for your non-vegan friends. It is a great way to introduce foods they may never knew existed.[size]

Thanks ChrsLvsBks! I try to get them to see that I eat good food too, without shoving my food down their throats LOL. And I must say, if I haven't already. I love your TNC. Maybe mine will start to behave like a normal TNC some day.

So guys... I still have not taken my bantu knots down:

But, I think they are going to look great!

I am having a wardrobe difficulty! I don't know what to wear tonight! I want to wear a skirt, tights and killer shoes (and a shirt of course). So I need you guys to help me choose which outfit to wear. Here are the three narrowed down choices:
Black/White asymmetrical skirt w/ankle boots:

Black skirt w/red shirt and leopard pumps:

Black skirt/shirt w/green houndstooth cardigan and ankle boots:

I'm about to head out and when I come back I have to decide, so help me out ladies!!!!

Number 2...Red is such a good color to go out in.

I pick Number 2 too because I like red!!!

All three...could u do oufit changes throughout the night? lol I like 1 and 2...can't decide which I like better!

Lovely bantu knots!
