Hairstyle: Twist Out Updo

Image
This is an updo that I did on a twist out that was getting old. I basically tucked in the back with bobby pins and U-shaped hair pins in the front 

Summer Protective Style

This has been my signature style all summer long. The twists have really helped my hair grow! In this style, I used Organix Coconut Milk Conditioner to co-wash and Komaza Care's Califia Care Leave-in. I also used my rose water/glycerin spritzer to dampen hair when needed, and applied Afroveda's Shea Amla Whipped Butter Cream on my ends when twisting. The flower was purchased from Sally Beauty Supply for $1.90!

Mini Twists

I decided to try my mini twists again the other day, and I can tell you that this won't happen that often! I think it took me approximately 5 hours to finish them and I have already taken them down... tis tis . They were cute while they lasted though. I forgot to bring my Komaza Care pudding, so I ended up using nothing but leave in conditioner. The hair accessory was bought at Target on clearance. It adds a little extra and the headband fits comfortably.
