So, I FINALLY did my mini twists!! It took about three hours to do, and I love them...
Products I used:
Water
Proclaim Emerald Bergamot Hair & Scalp Conditioner
TEACOIL (my special mixture)
- Tea Tree Conditioner
- VO5 Tea Therapy Conditioner
- Natural 7 Oil
- Corn Oil
- Tea Tree Leave In Conditioner
- Water
Red, Black & Green Beads
Comb
Perm Rods
Perm Rods
So, I basically sprayed my entire head with water first... I then parted my hair and got to twisting... I sprayed my hair with my TEACOIL, greased my scalp with my Emerald Bergamot and got to twisting... After it was all twisted, I put my beads on my braids I put on either side and VOILA... DONE!!! :) - The process took about three hours from beginning to end.

So... The finished product: (I pinned it back on either side w/bobby pins for Church on Sunday... I wanted a little funkiness in the top!!) -- On Monday, I just let it go free!!! I love the VERSATILITY of Natural Hair, folks!
So, there you go... I really am enjoying my mini twists...I roll up my ends every night by just grabbing a bunch of the twists and rolling (lazy perhaps???), and I put my satin bonnet on... No harm, no fuss... I spray it each morning with a bit of water and my TEACOIL.
I will be making them SMALLER soon and of course posting pictures of that... I was looking at my oldest's mini twists that she did and I was like, "WOW... I'm loving the extra fullness she has... Imma have to do mine smaller!!" -- So, look out for that!!! I plan on doing a video to show how I do them (don't hold me to that though)!
I hope you all enjoyed this blog... If you have questions or comments, please don't hesitate to let me know!!!
Keep Watching,
