I did a mini twist out with just shea moisture.
Turned out well.
I also wanted ti try my hand at doing lootd and ootd!
See you later!
So, there are certainly days where I feel like - I am WAY too tired and have no energy to do any styles that I want. Also, at the length my hair is at - it is sometimes difficult to just do a quick hair prep. With medium-short 4b/4c/ hair - it isn't as easy as a simple couple of braids. Especially as a student, it's as if time is your enemy and your energy is going to SO MANY things already...
So sometimes I just want to do something easy and quick. I love Headwraps and Scarves for this reason. You can completely hide your head all the while looking great! However, sometimes I get bored of just a head wrap and still want my hair to be a start as well - even if I didn't give it the time of day... whoops.
So The video coming up will be a simple video of what I do when I don't have time to prep MY HAIR. Some naturals have the length to whip it into place with a few bobby pins and some hairbands. But not moi.
The upcoming tutorial will be quick and easy and just a show and tell type thing.
From start to finish.

I started with an old and shriveled up Bantu Knot-Out it was on its 4th day or something.. Then parted the front so that I could put the rest in an old stocking cap I made when I was younger in my permed days...Have not put that on my head in FOREVER! Anyway... So I spritzed some of my Conditioner and Water concoction onto my hair and fingercombed.
Then I used HAIRepair by ORS on my ends to keep them smooth and to prevent breakage. After I used the Curl Enhancing Smoothie by Shea Moisture and applied a semi-generous amount on each section of hair then proceeded to braid. I then went to bed with 5 braids in the front of my head while the back was a complete WTF.

In the morning I used ORS Olive Oil Sheen Spray on my braids and then took them out. I simply tied a scarf around the back end of my head. I feel like it looks cute and pin-up ish.
After all that I fiddled around a but until I came with a position I liked for my braid-out section. Took a bobby pin and had it sit to one side.
& Then I went downtown and NO ONE NOTICED A DAMN THING..
Mwahaha..
Peace. Love and Easy Living....

ABOUT THE NEW BLOG:
In my past blog on Blogger.com it was all about being “EMANCIPATED” – I was a teen in high-school and went to Blogger in order to vent or to really express my thoughts and feelings about my Natural Hair Transition and my High School life, which included crushes and experiences and friends and , well – “enemies”. I have always stuck to living MY LIFE and living it MY WAY. Within reason, of course. :p
NOW, on this WordPress Blog I am taking a similar direction. I have already lived life EMANCIPATED. I have already figured out my personal style and my personal interests. No one is holding me back from who I want to be. Thus now, my only objective is to live life (extra)Ordinary! I say Ordinary because it should be ORDINARY to live your life to the fullest. It should be Ordinary to live your life Extraordinarily! Which is why I have the “extra” in the brackets.
So this is a new journey on ME taking risks, living life and taking all the opportunities that come my way. All the while MAKING new opportunities. For me and for others. I want to live life EXTRAORDINARILY!
