VDAY VIDEO Bohemian Hairstyle

Image
OMG....Valentines Day is just a few days away! My family page  http://www.youtube.com/user/4GradesNatural   has been doing Valentines Day hairstyles for natural, transitioning, etc, hair all week! However, I just uploaded a Vday hair special behind the scenes from the up-do my mother gave me.    I love big, wild, edgy hair so she gave me something a little different. I like to call it my bohemian up-do ; ) However, as you all know I just cut 3- inches of hair off so I was not sure how COOL of a hairstyle I could actually get. lol Omg why would I think my mom would have issues with my new hair. Cause you know what she ROCKED IT! And guess what I can wear this for a few days later! Omg what would we do without protective styling! Braids, twists, two strand twists, and bantu knots were all used to achieve this look. But don't worry it sounds more complicated than it actually is. haha But anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful Valentines with your loved ones! -xoxo...

I would like to say that my natural texture is probably a 4b and perhaps a 4c in some areas in the back. My hair is wavy and sometimes spiral curls on my edges. But....the back seems to be a tad more coarse??? With less of a curl pattern. But I moisturize my hair at least 4-5 days a week. My hair tends to dry out really fast to the point where it feels brittle. One day I took my twist out to moisturize and my permed hair was super hard. However, my natural hair at the roots was somewhat soft. I've noticed that my hair responds differently.....perm/natural hair. The following pictures are just me sectioning my hair and moisturizing my hair. I cannot believe I use so much water i...
