The last time I twisted my hair, I'd done it
after I blew it out, and the ends would not hold!! They were too blunt, unraveling and fuzzing out. I was so disappointed! So this time I did smaller twists on freshly washed and air dried hair. I used Yes to Cucumbers conditioner as my leave in, sealed with castor oil. I wore my hair out like that for a day- and twisted it dry the next day with no additional product. It looked kinda icky... UNTIL I decided to roller set it on my small blue flexy rods. I used
Curls Goddess Curl Gel from Target to "wet" the ends of about 6 twists at a time, which I then coiled together to smooth before putting on the rollers. This fixed the whole style! Here it is the next day:
And a few pictures from the few days after:
I re-set it on the curlers quickly each night and got 6 days out of the twists before my twist out:
The red highlights. Fading nicely!
See how my ends begin to revert back to my small curls once outside of the curlers for even a day.
So thennnnnn I went to a birthday party on the weekend and needed an up-do to show off some huge, fabulous earrings I got. Me and my girls = All NATURAL. Pressed, locked, twisted - Sexy ladies!
Waaaah!My hair is so fine, my twists do not look this full! I envy you!

Hi @Odry I don't know much about color and I'd admit even that my recent venture into highlighting was a fail- BUT I did see a few posts about using cinnamon and honey to lighten hair (http://www.hairgurl.com/2010/07/cinnamon-does-lighten-hair.html) without the harsher bleaches and chemicals it takes to lift really dark hair.
ReplyDeleteIf you do want to use a professional strength dye I recommend Aveda brand color. I did not suffer any damage after my highlights. My ends are still great 4 months later.
