Cultured in Media

Want to try something cute, quick, and easy to do? Well, this may work better for you than it did for me. I tried this previously and it came out perfect, but this time, it was a major fail, but I did find a way to make it still look cute and wearable in public. Check out this before picture... The hair is not combed after washing the day before. I had just worn it in a top bun the day prior. Me and my hair have this love/hate type of relationship. One minute it is the best in the world and the next, the most annoying thing ever. So since it was one of those "annoying" moments, I decided to do SOMETHING with it.  I decided to do six mini buns (wraparound buns also known as bantu knots). I gathered the products. Products Used: Peppermint Oil. Jamaican Black Castor Oil Garnier Whole Blends Leave in Conditioner Lottabody Setting Lotion Eco-Styler Hold & Shine Moisture Mist by Shea Moisture I mixed the Peppermint Oil and JBCO together and applied to ...

Success. Well kind of. Upon take-down, they still were a little bit damp but overall they were dry. I never know how to un-ravel Bantu Knots so I just turned them in the opposite direction.  Liking the results, I decided to pin them up to the side. Boy, was I getting compliments out of the anus today. I loved every bit of it. This will be a style I use often in this "No Heat Fall Edition" Challenge. Enjoy the pics

Currently I am in Bantu Knots, air-drying them overnight. This is done on a day-old wash n go. I did not re-wet the hair at all. I followed the same pattern as the video below. Products I used were Motions wrapping lotion, hair gel, and a detangler.  I will be sure to take pics upon take-down tomorrow.
