Chrs, thank you for the compliment. And your hair is gorgeous. I have heard the concert will be awesome, I will give you my reviews tomorrow.

Hi and welcome. I enjoyed your story, and your hair looks great. I will be visiting more often. Enjoy the concert.

Can't wait to see your pics from the concert!

Your twists look so good. We'll let you pass on using your Qhemet. I hate getting packages and trying to wait to use it. It's like the box is calling my name saying open me, open me. LOL!

Anyway, I know the concert will be awesome. Can't wait to see pics of you twist out.

ur daughters hair is goooooooorgeous! i like the banded ones too, i need to try that one day! her hair is so long, sheesh!!

love ur twist, good choice, u cant just let a qhemet box just sit there and they will stay moisturized til u do a twist out which i know will be faboooo!!

Oh my! The concert was great. That Maxwell is a ..........ummm........a good performer. I will post pics later today. And there were so many naturals at the concert......ah dang-I should have taken pictures of them. Anyways, pics to come later.

Morning CoilyKinks....

So you enjoyed Maxwell I can't wait to see your pictures!!

It seems now that I've gone natural I see naturals every where I go. I feel so proud to be a part of the natural community!!! Don't you?

Have a good one!!!

Thanks for stopping by Crissy!

Hey CoilyKinks. Welcome to Curl Street! Looks like you've been up to a lot lately. I can't wait to see your pics!

Ok, ladies I have pics. But first let me say the Qhemet is very moisturizing and I love that. But........my twistout was so soft, and frizzy, and it did not last for work today. Maybe it was my twisting that caused my results not to be the best, or maybe its the Houston humidity. Either way, I have a curly fro. My roots and the length of my hair have shrunk, and I have a slight curl at the tips of my hair all over. Its not all bad, I can wear a headband or scarf and pull it off-but its just not the results I was expecting.

Any-whoo, here are the pictures:














Now, these are this mornings pictures:












I forgot to take the pictures before I left for the concert, so all of the pictures except the first one are from afterwards.

KNH, yes I am proud to be natural.

Thanks for stopping by CCC!

Thanks DVa and Nubie for your tips on how to use the qhemet. I did love it for my twists.

And Krazycoils, I hope you and all the other ladies enjoy the photos!

Cute pics and I don't see any frizz! My hair curls on the ends like that usually because I twirl the ends of my hair when I'm plaiting or twisting. I love Qhemet's because its so moisturizing but when I use it I do get more frizz than when I use any other product.

KC-your hair is super cute in your avatar. What products do you use for twistouts?

My hair reminds me of a smooshie ball. You know the ones with gel inside, and it kinda looks like a porcupine from the outside and you squeeze it in your hand.

Hey Coilykinks thanks! for my twists/twistouts I use Afroveda Shea Amla and the Pur Whipped Jelly also by afroveda

ur twist out came out really cute and yes i think the humidity also was a factor but i noticed w/qhemet too, when i use too much it makes it sooo soft (almost too soft) that i get frizz too! does that make sense

Nice twistout. I'm learning frizz is hard to combat and that its par for the course with natural hair...there really isn't a way to avoid it. But I didn't notice any with your twistout. It looked soft, which w/Qhemet I'm sure it was.

I finally read your entire thread. Great natural journey story. Your hair and your DD hair looks great!

I bet It was the humidity that turned your hair into a curly fro. It did the same thing to my braidout. I look forward to following your thread.

Ok thanks KC. I am planning to order some Afroveda soon.

Yes Nubie. That makes sense.

My hair is so soft, which I like-but maybe I did use too much. I am gonna put the Qhemet back on the shelf and finish this 30 days with the KCCC. And revisit later this month.

Hi CK...

Being here I know how the humidity can be!! However, with Qhemet if you use the Heavy Cream with a Gel (not Qhemet's) you will get better results!!!

You curly fro is too cute!!!

KNH

ok thanks KNH! I will def use that tip.

Nice results. I can flat twist my manican(Sp), but whenever I try on my daughters hair it isnt' the same. I know the textures are different-I will keep trying.

Well, my hair is still very moisturized due to the Qhemet. Which I just totally love. After my failed twistout because of the heavy handedness with the Qhemet, I began wearing a high puff.

All good things must come to an end, so tonight I will co-wash and detangle. I will be using the KC products again for a wash and go, (and I have not done that in a very long time) and I will rake it thru and use a spritz to refresh throughout the week.

In other news, I have gotten tired of mini-twisting my daughters hair. And as I stated in an earlier post I would begin plaiting her hair or putting it in ponytails. Well, the plaits do fine and they retain her length-but the ponytails experienced major shrinkage.

So I have pics of my puff and a picture of her ponytail shrinkage. Enjoy!
