My First Co-Wash && Two Strand Twist Out

#1 I divided my hair in 4 parts (not equally) pre-washed my hair, and detangled it
#2 I rinse out the products; afterwards I put a conditioner in my hair and let it sit for 5 mins, then I rinsed it out!!! 
#3 I greased my scalp and did a two strand twist
#4 I put rods on my ends so my hair can stretch and not have so much shrinkage the next day. I don't use a blow dryer, I let my hair air dry #TeamNoHeat
#5 MY FINAL LOOK OF MY TWO STRAND TWIST!!!!

3 Easy Hairstyle's (Medium-Long Hair)

What's up everyone!!! Lady Q here to display 3 in 1 hairstyles and my lovely outfits I did each day.


THE ORIGINAL HAIRSTYLE!!!


My sister braided braided the side of my hair into a Fro-Hawk. By my hair being really thick and medium length, you can't tell unless it is pinned up correctly. This was almost a week old hairstyle before I started experimenting on it.
 

FIRST HAIRSTYLE && OUTFIT!!!

 
I pinned my hair in the front towards the back to and put Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie to the back of my hair. I wore my pink/purple/orange shirt with my jean jacket, pair of leggings, my combat boots, gold shimmer eyeshadow, blackberry lipstick, mascara, gold flower earrings, and a gold necklace.






SECOND HAIRSTYLE && OUTFIT!!!

 

I put my hair into a nice poof ball pony tail, I put my Shea Moisture Curl Enhancer on my poof and Argon Oil Edge Control on my edges. I wore my 4th of July shirt with the American Flag on it with my jean jacket, pair of black jeggings (fitted/legging like jeans),, my favorite combat boots, dark blue eye shadow, clear lip gloss, mascara, silver earrings in my first whole, a ruby pearl-like stud, a red/white/blue industrial bar, and my american flag geek glasses.
 





 
 

THIRD HAIRSTYLE && OUTFIT!!!

 
I put 4 poof ponytails through out the middle, by my hair being so poofy, you can't see that they are ponytails. This effect gives my hair the FULL Fro-Hawk look. To enhance my curls, once again, I used Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie. I wore my skinny strapped crazy design ruffled dress with my jean jacket, some tan fishnets, my combat boots once again, gold shimmerry eyeshadow, blackberry lipstick, some cute gold flower earrings, and my orange industrial bar.

Thank You, Baby Sis=)

WHATS UP!!!!! First, I will like to thank you for actually showing interest in my blogs. This is new for me and I enjoy sharing helpful details to all for natural hair. I encourage every african american, african, or any others with that coarse texture hair TO GO NATURAL!!!!!

 

Today I will be displaying some of my little sister skills on braiding my hair. She is in high school and she is taking cosmetology classes, so she uses my head as a "dummy" hahahahahaha=) If my hair was still relaxed, I wouldn't let her play in my hair because I wasn't comfortable with people playing in my hair because the chemicals weaken my hair and I didn't want my hair to fall out. (Don't get it twisted, I had long beautiful hair; it was just relaxed). Now that i'm #TeamNatural, I felt comfortable with her braiding my hair into styles. My sis braided my hair into 3 different styles!!!



Style #1 FRO-HAWK=)

Style #2 Braid Up-DO pin=)

Before she did my hair this time, I washed my hair and I blowed dried my hair. This was the first time my hair had ANY heat put to it since February (THAT'S 8 MONTHS!!!!!) I don't think my hair adjusted to it well; because when she braided my hair, it had a "frizzy" look. I will be going back to my air dries=)

Washed and after I blowed dried my hair.

 

 


 


 

Day 1 (If you look closely at the braids, you can see the frizziness; but I was still fly=)

 

 

 Day 2 -I wore a hat the next day to school because I ony had one class (I decided to use rollers in the top of my head so that I get a Janelle Monae bun in the top of my head)


 
 

 
 
 

WELL YOU GUYSSSSSSSSSSSSS, IT WAS AN..........

 
 
 
 

 

Sooooooooooooooooooo nowwww I had my sis to do an emergency hair do, because I did not like how it turned out.

 

Style #3 Braided up on one side and twist out on the other side=) She damped my hair with a spray bottle to avoid the "frizzy" look this time!!!

 

After she finished

 


  

The next day=)

 


 
 

I CURRENTLY HAVE THIS HAIR-DO IN MY HEAD=)
