End of HHJ Obsession/ Devotion

I've considered so many other areas of my life that could use this devotion. This is my goal deadline. I will have to purge all of my unused products and devote my time an energy to the betterment of another area of my life. MBL is my ultimate goal, but I have no idea where my hair will be come December 31, 2013. That will be five years of being hair obsessed.

Style of the Week: Tucked Twist- Up 1 OF 16

This Wash:
Prepoo- V05 Mix
Shampoo- ORS Creamy Aloe Shampoo left on for 1-3 min(I always do this post-relaxer)
CHI Infra Shampoo- one lather
DC- CHI Infra Treatment -15 mins with heat/steam
Leave-Ins- Aussie Hair Insurance, Lady Fior Olive Oil Leave In, CHI Silk Infusion.
I airdried and smoothed my hair throughout the process with a boar bristle brush and my hands while it dried.

My hair feels so full and it seems to have strength and elasticity combined. Detangling has become so simple.

This week's style is a twist-up with the ends tucked and clipped under. It is very simple.
How-to: I basically just pull my hair back like I'm about to put it into ponytail. From here I gently twist it upwards and then fold the ends downward. Depending on how large, loose or taut that I want it I pin it directly through and underneath the twist-up. I will use a cute clip or a simple clip, it doesn't really show anyway. I will sometimes where it with a headband but when I part the front I wear it without a headband.

I m+s, then I would put my scarf on at bed time. In the morning, I would just smooth and redo if necessary and I was good to go.

This style keeps my ends protected and it isn't just the usual bun. I like to do low manipulation styles. I kept it really low manipulation this week, though. I was too busy to be creative. This was quick and easy for me.






Next Week: Bantu Knots
