The twists that keep on giving




Hello there my lovelies,

So in an attempt to start wearing more protective styles, I twisted my hair recently. I conditioned my hair, and then applied CD Some of Marguerite's Magic and a little Shea Butter. I divided my hair into four sections and secured each with a clip. I worked on one sectin at a time, and went to twisting. Total, I made about 30 or so two strand twists. I don't usually do well with keeping twists in because they usually get frizzy too fast for my liking, but I was determined to keep my twists for a week. Well, that didn't quite happen.... So, here's my story. I twisted my hair on a Saturday night. I then wore it twisted Sunday-Tuesday. Tuesday night I reconditioned my hair. Side Note: So I went to church before my hair was dry which means it was dripping all over the place, and do you know some people behind me had the nerve to talk about me?!? Okay, so I was dripping all over the place, but I was in a hurry. There I was just trying to get my praise on with a little drippage going on and there they were talking away, he he he-end side note. Then Wednesday morning I took the twists out and wore my hair as a twist out, and I kept this through Friday. The twist out didn't come out quite so gorgeous-didn't look quite like Ms. Berry's-but I worked with what I had:-). Wednesday I wore it pulled up into a bun, Thursday I wore it down, and I don't remember what happened Friday :-/ Anyhoo, I think that the point of the post was to say don't be afraid to experiment with protective styles, maybe they'll last maybe they won't. Also, it's cool to have to re-route your hair plans and do something a little different if necessary (ie. turn the twists into a twist out when they start acting up). You know the saying, when life gives you lemons....


That's all for now folks
