So I was supposed to be hennaing today (it's all mixed up and everything

) but last night I was playing around with some flat twists again and now I like my hair to much to just take it out after I struggled to get it to do what I wanted last night.

The sad thing i because my car is all sorts of broke down I'm not even going anywhere or doing anything today. Way to waste a perfectly good hairstyle lol

Ugh so my henna has been in for almost 4hrs && it's time for it to GO!!!! Omgosh I can not stand the smell, its killing my stomach and I'm trying to eat Sad

I tried to put honey in it and hopefully disguise some of the smell but duh it clearly wasn't enough. I'm a broke college kid and when I say we have pretty much nothing in our apartment I'm not kidding so I didn't have very many mixing options.

On a SN-I **REALLY** want to go play in the rain lol

Your flat twists are so cute! Though you had nowhere to go - it never hurts to do something just because.

The flat twists look awesome!

I'm sorry you aren't liking the henna. I'm extremely sensitive to smells, but the henna doesn't bother me. It isn't pleasant, but I didn't find it piercing or harsh. Not exactly sure how to help, I suppose it's just an individual thing.

Thanks JnB! Idk what it was about the henna today that was messing with my senses so bad. Last time I did it, it wasn't a great smell but it was bearable.

Cute pic! Its funny that when you have no where to go you can get a really cute style but when you are going somewhere your hair never comes out the way that you want it to.

by KinkyNappyHappy 9th June 2010, 8:37 am

You did a good job on your flat twists, and I love the cute hair style. It's funny how that happens when you have not where to go.

I didn't have that problem with my henna....what did you add to your mix? Just curious...

Thank you!! The middle still doesn't hold flat twists very well at all thats why I ended up leaving it out.

In my Henna I used water, ACV, honey and cinnamon... the consistency was a little off and I only used about 50grams. But Idk why the smell was so weird

Cute style. Sorry the henna smell bothers you. Check out the Henna thread to see what tips might be there to combat the smell. Can't wait to see pics of your results.

by curly-me-naturally 9th June 2010, 1:44 pm

Mstokes

It might be the ACV(apple cider Vinegar) ? cause I know that does have a strong smell it self then paired with the henna might make it a lethal combo . I don't know , Is there anything you done different from the last time to this one ?

The only thing I did different was add the honey and the cinnamon, so idk...

Hey CoilyKinks!! Thanks for stopping by. Sadly you can't really see much of a change in my hair after the Henna Sad

Or maybe it's just me lol.
