Two strands Twist out with banana clip

January 20th, 2012

So, this morning I decide to apply some oil mixture to my 3 day old style. For some reason, my hair was extra oily and it didn't seem like my hair absorbed the oils. The only new thing I added to my oil mix was grape seed oil. I must have put too much because..all day long it was dripping!  LOL.


So, I decided to twist out my two strand twist and put my hair in a loose curly puff using a 5 inch banana hair clip.




Now I know that many people think banana clips are a big no-no.  But I tell you, there are so many styles that you can do.  The styles are not your grandma styles at all.  Check out some of these on the YouTube video by one of my favorite vloggers, Kimmaytube....

Note to self: Your transistioning hair does not like Cantu Shea butter leave in when it is wet...leaves whitish product on hair that takes forever to dissolve.  Apply this product only to my dry hair

Is it a Sin to Blow Dry, Straighten or Alter Your Natural Hair?

Image
 The Bible does not say that changing your hair texture is a sin. There is no verse that specifically mentions straightening, curling, or otherwise altering hair texture as being sinful. Hair care and styling choices, including changing your natural texture, are not addressed as moral or spiritual issues in Scripture. What is mentioned in the Bible are the following:  1 Peter 3:3-4 talks about not letting outward adornment (like hairstyles or jewelry) be your primary focus, but rather emphasizing a gentle and quiet spirit. 1 Corinthians 11:15 mentions that long hair is a glory for a woman because it is given as a covering, but it does not forbid styling or altering the hair. 1 Timothy 2:9 emphasizes modesty and inner beauty over elaborate hairstyles. These verses are about attitude and priorities, not specific hairstyles or hair treatments. Changing your hair texture is not a sin according to the Bible. What’s more important in Scripture is your heart, humility, and motives, n...

What to do if you have Short Anagen Hair Growth Phase

Image
 One of my followers mentioned that she was diagnosed with Short Anagen Hair Growth Phase. She had not been able to grow her hair more than 5 inches. Upon researching online, here is what I found out about this diagnosis. Let me know if you have this similar issue  If you have a Short Anagen Hair Growth Phase, your hair doesn’t stay in the growth phase long enough to grow very long before shedding. Here’s what you can do: 1. Consult a Dermatologist or Trichologist • First step is to confirm the condition and rule out underlying issues like hormonal imbalances, thyroid problems, or nutritional deficiencies. 2. Topical Treatments • Minoxidil (Rogaine): FDA-approved for hair growth, can help extend the anagen phase. • Caffeine-based products: Some evidence suggests they may stimulate follicles. 3. Oral Supplements • Biotin, Vitamin D, Iron, Zinc, and Omega-3s may help support hair health if you’re deficient. • Nutrafol or Viviscal are popular hair growth suppl...
