Flat Twist Style...Training!

Image
Hey everyone: Seems like it has been a tough MINUTE since I mentioned my new job. However, I will be leaving for training this Sunday May 19, 2013. Omg I am all packed and ready for this awesome new adventure in my life. I will be gone for a whole month....and then some because I have to get situated with my new living arrangements. However, I have posted one last video before my return! I needed a protective style for training. I do NOT have time for any Bad Hair days. So.....I opted to try something new! Flat Twist Video People =) BUT....for now I'm being flown to HAWT Arizona to bask in the sun. Well, not really I do actually have some things to learn. lol However, before I leave I plan on posting two videos that I haven't posted yet about my transitioning days. Wow it is so funny saying that because they actually just ended. lol But I will attempt to keep updates on here and my youtube as much as possible! Until then....wish me luck...and let's grow people.

I'm Natural! Big Chop Results

Image
Alright...Alright...Alright....I know it took me two days to do it...but I DID! Here is the video of my Big Chop Results. Included in the Video: Texture Shots Dry Hair Photos Wet Hair Photos Dry Combed Out Photos My First Natural Hair Style Photos Hair Twisted Immediately After The Chop (Disaster) However, just to clear things up....the twist out was a terrible...terrible...LOOK...a least for me. There was no GAT DOG on way I would ever leave the house let alone.....the internet check that mess out. lol Hence why I did not show the results. However, I used WATER...MOISTURIZER...& Eco Styler Gel for my final look. My hair to my surprise would actually curl up on its own when it was moist. The gel helped to greatly reduce the amount of frizz in my hair. I apply those products....which I can share on a later post...and separate the hair and it curled up on its own from there. I actually love this style because it reminds me of my FAVORITE style.."BANTU KN...

Big Chop#2

I had to Clip more hair aside from the first video I posted! So I twisted my hair and began to snip again....YES...I am scissor happy.lol Yes...I LOVE my Hair and YES....my next video will be my hair results! http://youtu.be/-nVoWcqxBII  <--------------------- Here is the link until I can place the actual video from youtube here! Thanks for watching, -Kamitinae ; p These ends had to be clipped of course! I basically have been clipping the remaining pieces of perm left over as I seem them. Bit more time consuming than I thought. I could of posted so many videos of me doing that. BUT to save the mundane scissor happy hands...I just gave you guys 2.lol Anyone out there transitioning or still trying to decide on what to do? I was pleasantly surprised and super excited by the amount of hair that grew over the year span. I am LOVING IT. -KamiTinae

I BIG CHOPPED..Transitioning Days are Over

Image
Transitioning Days are OVER YES...I....KAMITINAE....Big Chopped yesterday...April 30, 2013...and am officially joining the NATURAL TEAM.  http://youtu.be/ugEexSYZlF0       <------ HERE'S THE LINK I WILL POST THE VIDEO LATER WHY ? Well...I was only supposed to get a trim BUT....my hair in the front was way longer than the back.  So much so that when I wore buns....the only hair included was from the front half of my hair..  :0.....I know RIGHT. My mother just chopped a week ago...I was muy JEALOUS. I was excited to see my real texture of hair. I was tired of dealing with my two textures of hair. I LOVED my mother's new natural hairstyle. Lastly....WHAT THE HECK...WHY NOT! Nothing else cool was going on in my life. HOW ? My mother sectioned my hair and applied conditioner. She clipped all of the straight ends not matching my natural texture. After I washed my hair I noticed that a trim was not ENOUGH. Believe me everyone it was ...

4Gradesnatural Photo Shoot!

Image
OMG ya'll my family aka 4Gradesnatural just did a photo shoot the other day! We had so much fun getting dressed together and doing our hair! My little sister Ky straightened her hair for the first time in a year. However, she had it professionally done...cut..etc. Will definitely post a video on that process! However, the rest of us had our hair pulled back off of our faces! But the best thing about this is it's NATURAL. We also did not have these photo's touched up! This is who we are! We are greatly defined by our natural selves and are in LOVE with it. Here are a few photos from our shoot! Check our facebook page out to see videos and updates from 4gradesnatural! (We all have different textures of hair) Follow our page..check us out..and WATCH US GROW! http://www.facebook.com/4gradesnaturall

I wanted to see how long my hair has grown in a year....my natural hair. To my surprise it grew a little over 6 inches for the year yay! Thats a half inch every month which is a normal growth rate. My hair looks super short until you stretch it out. Watch me Grow!
