@AbsyBlvd you did a great job. I can't braid to save my life.

 

[GGsKin]

Thanks @guudhair for years I practiced on myself, my dolls, my granny and my baby cousins and siblings- basically any head of hair I could get my hands on.

Is your hair natural? I was thinking of getting Havanna twists done and I'm not sure if I should blow my hair out prior to getting them done or just show up with a wash n go, or dry hair that's been twisted/banded after detangling. TIA.

eta nvm I haven't done anything to my hair in so long I forgot Youtube has all the answers I'll do a curlformer set the night before going for my appt.

My new winter night time air drying protective style. If this goes well it will be part of my regimen. But in the summertime I think it automatically switches to wet bun because not only does it keep you cool all day but it also allows you to shower in the morning, conditioner wash, and moisturize and seal.

These are 17-day old twists. I re-moisturized last night.

Self installed yarn twists.... Cheap and easy but took forever to do

Looks great @faithVA ! I wish my flat twists looked that neat.

Thank you. They are looking better with practice. Once I figured out that I needed to twist the section before I twisted the two sections together, they started to look better. It helps keep shorter hairs tucked in.

What brand of hair did you use and what color?

I was too tired to do my hair so this half wig was my backup.. I need to expand my half wig collection

 

[Honey Bee]

This is my last set of crochet braids.



I'll get around to posting the new one soon, I'm not done styling it yet. I'm using the same brand and texture of hair and it's looooong.

[bluenvy]

Four braids I put in after washing, condition, moisturize and seal.
Leaving them in for a week, so I won't need to deal with it.
