Roll and Tuck Mohawk


This style was done on hair that has been washed and stretched out with two strands twists for two days.

Styling Process:
  • Divide hair into three sections; bang area, left side and right side
  • Starting from the left side, divide hair into five or more sections, going from side of the head to middle parting
  • For each of these sections, begin to roll and tuck in the hair, working your way to the middle part. When there, secure hair with rubber band.
  • Do the step above for the right side
  • Now gather some hairs (the mohawk area) and braid it up. I gathered three at a time.
  • Roll each braid with perm rods.
  • For the banges area, create a pompadour and either secure with a bobby pin or rubber band.
  • Wait for a couple of hours, so that the perm rods side will set.
  • Release perm rods and undo the braids gently. 
  • Secure the ends with bobby pins underneath the bottom of the mohawk.

Have fun!

    this is cute, I may try it :) Im not usually very adventurous with my styles lol. Quick question...when you do two strand twists do you do them on wet or dry hair? If you do them on wet hair how do you minimize shrinkage? And if done on dry hair how do you make them lay/hang down instead of sticking out in all directions? TIA!

      Thanks, girl! When I do my twists, I do them when damp never when wet. To reduce shrinkage, you can put bobby pins at the base of the hair and then twist. To make them lay down, after doing them, I tie a scarf on my hair and that usually does the job of laying them down by morning.

What to do if it seems like your natural hair is not growing

Image
@breezyspuffs (IG) If it feels like your hair isn’t growing, the issue may not actually be growth itself—hair grows about half an inch per month on average. The problem may be breakage, slow growth, or factors that hinder visible length retention. Here’s what you can do to promote healthier, stronger growth: 1. Check Your Routine for Breakage Causes: • Reduce heat styling: Excessive use of flat irons, curling irons, and blow-dryers can damage hair. Try air-drying or using lower heat settings and always use a heat protectant. • Limit chemical treatments: Frequent coloring, perming, or relaxing can weaken hair, leading to breakage. • Be gentle when detangling: Use a wide-tooth comb and start from the ends, working your way up to avoid pulling and snapping. 2. Moisturize Regularly: • Dry hair is more prone to breakage, so keep it hydrated. Use moisturizing conditioners, deep conditioners, or hair masks weekly, and consider leave-in conditioners or oils like coconut

How to get rid of split ends in Natural Hair

  @breezyspuffs (IG) Getting rid of split ends in natural hair involves a combination of good hair care practices and regular maintenance. Here are some effective ways to manage and reduce split ends: 1. Trim Regularly • Schedule Regular Trims : Every 8-12 weeks, visit a professional stylist or trim your hair at home with sharp hair-cutting shears to remove split ends. • Search and Destroy Method : If you prefer not to cut your hair often, this method involves trimming individual split ends as you spot them. 2. Moisturize Your Hair • Use a Deep Conditioner : Regular deep conditioning helps retain moisture, making hair less prone to splitting. • Leave-in Conditioner : Apply a leave-in conditioner after washing to maintain hydration throughout the day. 3.
