So I usually spend a good deal of money this time of year getting my hair braided I don't think I'll be repeating the process this year. So I'm just going to try to twist more consistently and keep them in longer. Usually I wear them Sun-Friday. Sometimes some of the twists come out but I just retwists and keep it movin lol. I'm twisting again this weekend its usually a weekend process because I take so long taking breaks running errands and what not and I'm still having the issue with my hands. Still working on one section. This time I tried to concentration on parting. I usually suck at this my hair is getting so thick. I think I did a better job this time. You can actually see them lol. I used my shea mix which is a mix of olive oil, shea, and johoba oil. I also brought Shea Moisture's Curl souffle. I use this on my ends. From the reviews I've learned you have to use this sparingly. It includes agave nectar, coconut oil,and flax seed oil. I've read and seen a lot of naturalistas use flax seed oil as a gel so this makes sense. I needed some new oil and didn't feel like spending money on oils right now but brought a bottle of Doo Grow from RightAid. Its a nice mix of oils and doesn't seem to have a lot bad stuff that prevalent in a lot of over the counter hair oils such as alcohol. Once the twists are done I usually pin the ends for work as my hair still isn't long enough to put into a ponytail or anything quite yet. I hate pins though so I usually take em down as soon as I get home lol. I'm still working on doing flat twists and cornrows. Once I get better with parting I'll think I'll get better with these. My hands are still flaring acting up but I just try to push thru it since I have no choice, but I practice till I get tired.
