Its Not All in Vain!!!

Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.
1 Cor. 15: 58





Whew....this is how I spent my Saturday!!! Yessss there were times I wanted to give up, I even thought about a relaxer and scissors but through it all I kept the faith knowing that my labor was not in vain. LOL...

Doing this hair is Process and a very tedious tedious journey!! For all those who are "Natural Headed"...lol like my daughter and I you know what I am talking about.

I would just like to share with you guys the 8hr process....lol..

Here are the products I am using at the moment...Pantene Relaxed and Natural for Women of Color Shampoo and Conditioner, Kinky Curly Knot Today Detangler and ofcourse, my detangling comb and brush, and clips to keep the hair under control and sepereated, it doesnt like to play nice with other sections..lol

(step one: get yo supplies)

Here we are detangling in sections..yes sections. I told you the hair doesn't like to play nice with other sections they have to remain seperated...but seriously this will make the detangling process go faster.

I am detangling with a Goody brush that I loooove and with shampoo and kk (kinky kurly). Once I detangle it I take that section and break it down in two parts and make two twist and then put back in clip. Then I finish the other sections.

Once all the sections are done then I shampoo/condition hair regularly while hair is still in twist, I repeat while hair is STILL IN TWIST....this will keep hair from getting tangled again!!!! Important Step dont skip...

(step 2: detangle and wash)


Hair is now put back in clips and ready to blow dry (*note: we dont use a lot of heat on our hair NO FLAT IRONS AT ALL, we air dry mainly but for mini twist I use blow dry to get it straighter and it last longer this way. I only do this (blow drying) every few months if that, maybe only twice a year).

Oh yea..another important step, make sure daughter has all her supplies...netflix, water bottle, snacks etc...or this will drive you crazy..I suggest watching the break up....boom boom..on the kick drum boom boom.loloolool....or Devil Wears Prada ...today we watched Hannah Montana...:(

(step 3: section off in clips again, and start blow drying)


I blow dry with no product in her hair.....its just a great blow dryer I got from Japan..sorry ladies.
(step 4: Blow dry)


Halfway There!!







(step 6: twist till your fingers fall off)

And youuuuuuuuuur done!! Yay..this willl last a month if she doesnt get it wet and keep it oiled, moisturized and tied up.
Thanks for reading , if you have any questions..holla at me. Love ya!!
