Air Dry II

In one of my previous post, I discussed about air drying my hair. The technique was to apply all my moisturizers and oils in my hair (after washing) and tying my head.  The problem with that technique is that my hair takes very long to dry.

For example, I washed my hair this morning and if I used that technique, my hair would still be damp in the morning.  What I started doing and it is working for me, I towel dried my hair as much I could, sprayed some leave in conditioner and just let it fully air dry. 

When I was satisfied that my hair was totally dry (it took about an hour), I then applied my moisturize and oil and twist into Bantu Knots.  I am in the morning I will be able to style my hair in the morning with out any problems.

I can also use this technique during the week.

Pretty Daughter

I just found this picture of my daughter when she had just cut her relaxed hair.  She looks so pretty!!  After a few days she realized that she did not like her hair cut and put braids in her hair. She will be surprised to know that I have this picture.

Mohawk

Last night as I was moisturizing my hair and made a mistake of putting too much of my coconut oil moisturizer to the top of my hair.  Normally, I would twist my hair into four Bantu Knots, two to the top and two to the bottom.  As I was twisting the knots at the top of my head, I realized that my hair was too damp.

This morning as I untwist my hair, it was still damp and of course I did not like the results.  So I kind of folded the top my hair into a mohawk and kept it in place with a crab and I just let the back of my hair hang down.

What is a french roll?

In my last post on 18th November, I wrote a bit about French Roll so of course I thought that it would be in order to get a video about What is a French Roll and how it is done. So here it is.

Acrylic Nails | My Story

I just felt like doing a post about my co worker's acrylic nails.  She has them done about every two weeks and they are always prettily painted.

Many years ago, I too was in this fashion and really enjoyed it.  I liked the fact that I could wash my dishes and my nail polish would not flake off.  

I fooled myself by saying that my nails were growing.  They were growing but they were VERY soft.  One year I decided to give my nails a rest from the acrylic, only to discover that the beds of my finger nails were extremely soft.  They bent and broke very easily.  I was concerned that my nails would never get back to their original state but after some time, they were back to normal.
