2 Year Natural Hair Anniversary

S T Y L E  # 1





These days, when I have my hair out I want to try styles that I haven't done before. So for the first style I put my hair up into a voluminous sort of messy updo that I created very quickly since I was pressed for time. I loved this style though and will totally be recreating it in the future.

This look was inspired by Selena Gomez, but was first recreated by my favorite natural hair Youtuber Naptural85. She made this look for us naturalista and I am so glad she did! As you can see, to complete the style you add a very long piece of synthetic hair into the french braid to enhance the look. I am in love with this style and will also be doing it again the next time my hair is stretched.

This past week (on the 9th of January) I celebrated my 2 year natural hair anniversary! These two years have gone by so quickly and I wouldn't change any part of my hair journey thus far. As I think back to when I had my last Keratin Treatment, I remember loving my long mid-back length straight hair. Now 2 years later, I can say I love my bra-strap length natural hair even more than I loved my straight hair! I can do so much with my natural hair, especially now that it is getting closer to my goal length (waist length). So for this anniversary I decided to roller set my hair for the first time ever. It was a long process, but I'm very happy with the results. Although, I can achieve the same thing with a simple blow out, then twist out in much shorter amount of time.
