Felicia's Hair Style

I like this hair style alot.  I have a wedding to attend to in August of this year and it would be great to have my hair styled like this for the occasion.  The only problem is that I will be travelling on the Friday before the wedding which is on the Sunday and I know for sure, the style would not look fresh by the Sunday.  So having my hair styled before I travel is not an option.  Hmmmmm.....  What should I do?

Orlando - Model Of The Day

This is one of my co-workers, and friend Orlando.  It has been a while that I wanted to take his picture and I finally got it yesterday.   When he saw the pictures he was very surprised at how his hair good looks.  He said that he does not really get the opportunity to see his hair from a back view.  So my response to him is this is what attracts the ladies.  LOL!!!

He expressed that the maintenance of the locks could be quite time consuming. To have a good looking head of natural hair, it has to be washed and ever so often the hair has to be re-locked. He said that this can be a bit painful (I did not know this). And there is also the financial aspect of it. Certain products will have to be bought to keep the hair looking healthy.  Some men have their locks styled - maybe in braids for example.

Very talented 2

 These are some more pictures of a talented  young lady's work.  The model has her hair in locks and my friend styled it for her.  I was talking to a male friend the day (he also has his hair in locks) and he express that the maintenance of the locks could be quite time consuming.  To have a good locking head of natural hair, it has to be washed, ever so often the hair has to be re-locked.  He said that this can be a bit painful (I did not know this).  And there is also the financial aspect of it.  Certain products will have to be bought to keep the hair looking and some people pay to have it re-lock and styled like the model in these pictures.

 This look can also be achieved with artifical braids.

Cut and Style Relaxed Hair

These are some pictures of a friend of mine.  I have known her for some time and she recently cut and styled her hair.  I was quite surprised.  But it looks great!!!  It gives her face a different look altogether.  One good thing about this hair style is that you can still pull it back into one if you are having a bad hair day.

Touch Up Time Again

I had my hair touch up, on Wednesday 7th April, with ORS relaxer (I bought the box about 4 months ago and I use the second bottle of relaxer that day).  When I went to work today (Saturday 19th April) I was complimented on how good my hair looks.  I am a bit disappointed that there is not much hair growth.  But I should not complain much because I had new growth but apparently there has been some hair breakage.  But looking at this picture I must agree my hair looks good!!!

My Niece New Relaxed Hair Cut

 

These are some pictures of my niece who recently has her hair cut and styled.  It looks absolutely lovely.  

I remember the days when I had my hair in this type of style.  The front of my hair was not that long though.  The problem with this style is that it is high maintenance.  There are some days when you may have a bad hair day and you CANNOT pull your hair back in a pony tail.  And to keep the style looking good, you will have to keep the hair at the back very low.  I never did like how my hair looked (at the back) when it started to grow back.

One advantage I could remember is when I set my hair, it would last for the entire week.

Very Talented At Styling Dreadlocks

It has been a while since I have posted pictures of other peoples' hair.  You see when I first started this blog, I took pictures of my friends hair and posted them here.  Last night I met a young lady who does hair as a hobby and this is one of her samples.  I will be posting some more pictures of her work.  She is very talented.

Guess What?

Can you believe it?  I have many post about Bantu Knots and now the other night I twisted my hair in some knots and I found it quite difficult to sleep.  I tossed and turned for most of the night.  The corn row comb outs are really the 'bomb'.
