Well, it has been a while...since Jan. 2011. But the bug has hit me again to write about my hair journey. So much has happened since the last time I've written on here, but now that I'm back to a regular schedule (somewhat), I wanted to update my site. So since last January, I've gotten married. In fact, November 19 will make it 3 months...YAY!. Wedding preparations can take on a life of it's own. That will be a blog for another day though,lol. So we are here and I wanted to post up some pics of my hair recently. I'm going to try really hard to update this blog at least once a month. If I can do it more than that, that will be even more exciting.
I'm working on trying something new for the fall/winter season...Protective styling. Whooohooo!,lol...Apparently, after researching some hair blogs, it's all the rave to retain hair length. I had somewhat done this in the past. But I would eventually wear my hair out more often, which during the colder months, tends to dry out my hair. Wearing natural hair out during the colder months will dry out natural hair so protective styling is key to retain moisture and length. So the picture above is an example of one of my protective styles. I am rusty as I am having trouble moving my pics on here,lol...so that means I'll be doing this more often as I have forgotten how to strategically place pictures on here.
I supplement with a cute Goody Ouchless barrette and a headband in the 2nd pic and I actually am going old school, using a banana clip in the first one. I like to try different types of headbands and hair accessories when I wear my hair like this. Plus it saves time for me in the morning. You can see the back in these pics. I'm still tweaking how I want the front to look so you will see that later :) I like to take pictures in general, especially hair pics. I am working on my fall/winter hair regimen and I will post those later. Until then, enjoy and as always, there's more to come...soon.
