Ur story is beautiful! I hope one day there will be a man to care for me that way ...And Thanks for mentioning ur blog!...I love blogs and saved urs to my favs...

@everyone, Thank You!! I am so ready to try the henna. I have never done henna before so this is going to be a new experience for me.

This weekend was entirely too busy for my liking but fortunately I still found time to refresh my twists and that is all the matter right? LOL

I refreshed my twist using my homemade holding mix: http://tiashauntee.blogspot.com/2009/11/mixtress-works-holding-cream.html

Then on Sunday I styled my twists in an updo inspired by a vid I saw on YouTube:

My rendition:


Then last night I decided to try and pincurl my twists :


All this is a new step for me because I can be lazy with my hair. Usually when I do twists, that's it. I never try to do anything more with them. But because I am trying to keep my hair up off my clothes, I had to do something. I think this will make me keep my twists in longer and do more with them.

oooo i love the hair color!

Will you do a twist out after a few days or are you going to cowash and re-twist??? I'm going to try your mix when I attempt twists

I'm not sure. I found out that we have a wedding to go to and that kinda through a monkey wrench in my plans. I think a twistout would be the easiest thing to do since we have to travel.

your holding mix seems yummy and looks effective! will try..my edges need a little help, lol

I just left to go to lunch which consisted of me shopping (trip successful).
While I was in the store the cashier asked me a ton of questions about my hair and even wrote down the CN.com website to pass to her daughter. In addition to that, 3 different guys tried to get at me what I was shopping. I was even holding a man's tie in my hand!! My outfit today is very plain, no makeup....so it must be the hair.

Events like this motivate me to put more effort into my styles whenever I can.

Natural girls are fly!!!!!

LOL, VERY FLY!!! I love going to the grocery store early in the morning looking like I put so much work into me when all I did was shower and put on ear rings.

What did you say to the guys

Another one of those natural perks!

LOL for real! I always go shopping on lunch and I'm like, do all y'all work nights or something? Why are there so many work-aged people in the Target, it's 11:23 AM!
I know lots of people work different schedules but that is just my first thought when I see grown people just a-hangin out in the early afternoon!

I will be trying your homemade mix...Thanks for sharing!

Continuing with my updo routine, this morning I used one of those EZ Combs. I don't know how I feel about this one because as I was trying to adjust it, it kept snagging my hair.

I still love the updo!

I put one of these combs back yesterday in Big Lots. Guess I will go back today to pick it up. Too cute Tia!

I did the same thing for months. When I finally found one cheap enough I decided to give it a go. Now I just have to figure out a way to stop it from snagging my hair.

I am tired, stressed, and don't have enough time to do everything that I need to do. I will be so glad when I finish school.

And even with all that, I still found time to pin curl my twists

It's casual day at work and I started to make it a hat day because the weather folks are calling for rain. However, I have been really feeling my twists so I didn't want to hide them. I pulled them up in a high pony today.


Taking pics with the BB isn't that great, but it gets the job done.

That clip and the twists are super cute. Glad you didn't throw a hat on the twists. I like!

My edges are strange...they are not like the rest of my hair and for the most part they naturally lay down. When they do decide to get unruly I like to use some water & Shea butter to hold them down. If I need extra hold I use IC Fantasia gel, then I tie them down while I am driving to where ever I am going. And of course a hair brush. Doesn't take much effort at all.

For the past few days I have been using "Aloe Gro" all over and on my edges at night. I was waiting to mention after I got a good feel and opinion of the mix. But it's been really refreshing and I have grown to love it already.

Love your show!!!
