@Curls: Wow what an awesome compliment from such a gorgeous glam idol Thank you!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Bholmes how are you doing honey. Your hair never stops amazing me. You make me want to try these updos and twist. One day I will find the strength to do something to my hair.

Ok also here are my pictures updates for the weekend!!!!

I co-washed my hair again on Friday and wore them to an event Friday night. I had a car wash on Saturday morning so I kept the twists in for that. I unravelled the twists that afternoon for a twistout and LOVED the results! Here are some pics:










After sleeping on my hair with a satin bonnet, I woke up, let the steam from the shower hit my hair, fluffed, and was out the door!! A lot of people like my hair this weekend so I think they're noticing that it's getting longer or something

Mother's Day hair (that's my Mom!)


So I'm not trying to wash and re-twist tonight because, well, I'm tired!! lol so I will do that tomorrow afternoon. Much love to you all! I love living on Curl Street

Hey KT!!! You always make me smile Thanks so much!! I hope you're staying safe dear! My prayers are most definitely with you (are you back over seas?? gotta make sure ... lol)

I wanted to write something for all the mother's on this forum so I hope you enjoy it!!

Your pain went unnoticed
You wanted to be strong for everyone else
And hid your tears from our adolescent eyes
You thought sadness was equivalent to weakness
But there's something you don't know
I always used to watch you cry
The world tried to tear you down
But you stood tall as a rock for your family
Trials came back to back
And although your eyes were filled with sorrow
Your heart only contained love and determination
You never gave up
Through all the heartache, disappointment and fear
You were never defeated
I gained strength from seeing you fight
Because I realized my own potential through you
Mommy, Mom, Mother, Ma'Dear, Ma, Madre, Mi Corazon
I'm glad you're in my life
I'm grateful for everything you went through
Because it made you the best mother I could ask for
You can shed some tears because I know they're only temporary
Your perseverance is what will continue on
And I can only pray to be like you
When I grow up
A strong, beautiful, bold, passionate, loving black women
With scars on her back
And motivation written on her forhead
The bearer of all nations
Kisser of wounded knees
An ear in times of trouble
A hand when I've been knocked down
A rebuke when I've done wrong
A smile when I feel unloved
And a friend always
My mother, my friend
I'll always love you

Your twistout is soooo pretty!!! Love the pics!! Hope your mother enjoyed her day!

Your twistout is really pretty! It almost looks like a wash n go its so defined!

@CG: Thank you!!! She did have a good day I hope you you had a great day as well!

@KC: Thank you hun! I think the definition came from 2 things - making the twists really small and leaving them in for 2 weeks.

Awww! Your poem was so sweet. Loved it! Your mom is beautiful! I see where you get that from.
And that TWIST OUT! Oh lord! I have no words. You are definitely on my list of hair idols! I have a feeling that I am going to accumulate a LOT of hair idols the longer I stay on this forum!

B your poem made me tear up. That is so beautiful. I loved it. {{HUGS}} That was NOT a twistout you were wearing...I swear it wasn't! It looks like a flyy rollerset to me in a couple of the pics. Great job. Your hair never ceases to amaze me.

Happy Monday B!

That was a beautiful poem. I love the pic of you and your Mom!!! You guys are so cute! I can see where you get it from. And now about that hair....!!!! Miss thing! That twist out is the TRUTH! I love how beautiful, springy, and bouncy it looks! Chlo is doing her thing!!!

@soleil: Thank you thank you!!! You are too sweet my dear! I am extremely flattered that I could be a hair idol and you will most definitely find some AMAZING heads of hair on Curl Street! The longer you're here, the more fabulousness you'll see

@AL:Thank you! After I actually read it I realized that I like it too! :p lol and you're too much!!! That's definitely a twist out but I understand what you mean. It does look a rollerset sometimes which I love

@Femme: Thank you sis!! I love how Chlo has been acting as of late. No problems whatsover I'm gonna go wash and retwist now since I'm done with class

Hey Bholmes! I love the poem (snaps!), the picture of you and your lovely mother AND that twist out! It was so beautiful I kept enlarging the photos!

I love the pic of you and your mom!
