My New Love For Soft Rollers

Well i finally bought some rollers (soft). They were 1.79 for a pack of 9 xl so i bought 3 packs and i think they are one of the best things i've done. I love the curl they give plus the fact that they last at 3 days. They also highlight the individual strands of locs as opposed to letting it hang freestyle (well in my case anyway). So the first time round i asked my mum to do it for me as i have never worn rollers in my life. Once that effect had worn off i gave it a try but instead of leaving them in over night i only had a couple of hours grace period and i didn't put the rollers as close to the scalp and it gave a really really nice looser hangin curl.. ( i just wish i had taken a couple of pics)
Here are the pics of my mums helping hand.....love ya mum




If i do not post anything for the rest of the year then i do wish all of you a
FANTASTIC START TO 2009

Braid OUt!!!!!

Hey Everyone, can i first congratulate all those who have just loc'd up. Shout outs to N1 and Angel Locs... you have come along way ladies and the journey is just beginning....... Lovin your locs!!!



Back to the matter at hand. I've had a few requests to start styling espeacially from friends who know me and know i can almost turn my hand to anything creative but i have become stuck. The last time i went for retightening the majority had slipped right out except for the little balls at the end of each loc holding them together. (see one of the many balls below)
I'm not scared more like petrified. Like i said i can't really afford to keep on retightening and repairing a whole head. Anyho i did the braid out just to see what it would look like but Ladies and gents i didn't do anything more than that (trying to keep the hands outta the head!!!)


I plaited around 25 plaits to try and get a really kinky curl after i had washed and seperated, ensuring that the hair was damp.
Here are the results:

New Style





Well i thought that it was about time that i tried a few hairstyles...so here they are

They took a few seconds (yep.. i know it looks like it!, but it was quick and easy and that's all i need


  1. Flat twist the front and cornrow the back
  2. Take out the flat twists only at the centre (leave the sides twisted) so you end up with a mohawk.
