Bunning Locked My Hair!

Image
The dangers of the natural hair world are real! Find out how bunning my hair for just a little over two months caused my hair to lock! I was actually finding locks in my hair that were about .5 to 1 inch in width! I had about 4 of these around my hair and even more smaller ones dispersed throughout. Yes I DID have to add an additional trim to clean up the damage. Which was done yesterday 5.15.16 My ends were not split terribly...it looked like someone took a brush made of nails and brushed the ends of my hair. THAT is the best way that I can describe it! I noticed that the back of my hair experienced the most damage. Which is quite usual when I am having issues...the back is more susceptible to breakage.  I just hit my 3 years natural mark in April! You would think I would be a pro at this by now right! Wrong! I hope my experience can be an aid and stop sign to anyone with a similar struggle! -KamiTinae xo  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kamitinae/

FIX THE TWISTS. How to SAVE a Hair Mistake.

Image
FIX THE TWISTS For some SUPER ODD reason my twist-outs always need to be doctored-up. If you need a quick twist-out fix try this: 1. Lightly spray ends of hair with water. 2. Grab your FAVE gel...(To fix this you need your BEST GEL) ... 3. Add the gel to your curls. 4. And last give the hair a twirl at the end to keep the original definition in tact. Most of the time this WILL keep the style looking like a twist-out instead of a wash-n-go. By only applying the water and gel to the ends of your hair...you are reducing the shrinkage of the hair in the roots. Therefore, protecting majority of the length! Hope this helps smile emoticon See More I just opened a facebook page. Come Join Me! https://www.facebook.com/Kamitinae https://instagram.com/kamitinae/   Muahsies! xoxo
