Hello my fellow curlies!
I am officially TWO YEARS NATURAL!!! woot! My nappiversary was on July 8th! (yeah, this post is kinda late...)
This journey has had many ups and downs, but I never once regretted freeing my locks from the evil known as the creamy crack...haha! During this year, I took more risks with my hairstyles and went wayy outside of my comfort zone...
While I was in school, I didn't really have time to experiment with my hair the way that I wanted to. Between classes, work and studying, I was lucky if I was able to wash my hair before I passed out. After growing tired of seeing my asymmetrical bedhead hairstyles, I finally decided to take some time and put in kinky twists with the help of good ole' YouTube. (hehe!) I wore that hairstyle for about 1.5 months and then took it down after graduation...Then, the fun began :D
I had more time on my hands, so I watched all kinds of YouTube videos and experimented with some hairstyles...some I liked, others...not so much... Here are a few of the styles that I liked:
