Shrinkage!!!

So much shrinkage!!!

Less than 2 more months til straight hair!

Amazing wash day

I don't normally get very excited about wash days but this past one went extremely well. So I'm gonna share some pics!

I pre-poo'd with coconut oil for a couple of hours. Then I used my Head and Shoulders clarifying shampoo for two washes. Then I put my 3 Minute Miracle deep conditioner from Aussie and left it in for about 5 minutes. Finally I rinsed it out and then added Treseeme conditioner to comb through and leave in my hair. 

I first finger detangled and then finished up by combing with my denman. I only do this once a month because normally I just finger detangle. The denman made my curls so pretty and coily!!!

I was in awe how pretty my hair came out. I rope braided my bangs and then put the rest of my hair in a high ponytail to dry. 

The next day, I gathered the nice curls into a bun and it was a simple yet beautiful protective style! 

2 days later, and my curls are still looking great!

Sometimes my HHJ gets tough but it's wash days like these that show me how fun healthy hair can be and how pretty it can look! Length is coming-- I can feel it! 

Two strand twists!

I tried out two strand twists and they came out lovely!

Finished product!

I started out by washing my hair and then twisting two strands at a time together. The result was this:

Clipped up twists

The next day they were mostly dry. They shrunk up a lot:

After I took out the twists, the result was very pretty. The curls were soft and defined! Loved it :) 

Success!!

Goal review and pics

This month was super quick... Like I think I blinked and it was over!!  o.O

Getting longer!

So...

1) Post my banding video. Fail.

2) More protective styling. Check!

3) Cool braid style for leagues. Check!

I had trouble with my video files so I couldn't post it :( one of these days it will go up! My other goals were successes. My hair is so thick and full of life. It continues to pleasantly surprise me every day! 

My braid style for leagues!!

Thick full hair 😍

I have one simple goal for this month:

1) Don't touch hair. 

I can't help it. My hands are always in my hair. It's never been this strong or pretty. But my goal is to keep my hands off it this month! 

We'll see...
