Hello Everyone, and happy weekend! This post is brought to you by my anniversary dinner. My husband Mark and I are celebrating two years of marriage and four years together. (yay!) Anywho, Early Friday morning we headed to Auburn, CA. When I say early, I mean I got off work at 1:30 a.m. and we were in the car at 4:30 a.m.. I used the time in the passenger seat to set my hair so it would be ready for when we officially started our day. I decided to braid my hair in sections, hoping it would have some sort of definition. I used As I Am Double Butter Cream Rich Daily Moisturizer to braid and Reggae's Shea Souffle as I was taking down the braids. Here is what happened:
Not so hot, right? I have come to the conclusion that I like the As I Am Double Butter Cream as a once in a while moisturizer for my hair. (See Owning Your Hair page, 6.15.13 post.) I am starting to think maybe braid-outs as it's own style is not going to work for my hair unless I get some length. I will continue to braid my hair in sections for those days I want to pick out my afro and wear my hair big. This was the end result for the day:
Normally I have a flower in my hair, but I forgot them on this trip, so I had to do without. For dinner, I decided to do an updo. It wasn't in the original plans, but we fell asleep and I did not put my hair up, so it was a bit flat. with the luck of bobbie pins and borrowing a flower from the room's decoration, I came up with this:
I was happy with my hair, and even if I wasn't, I would have rocked it like I meant to do it. Confidence is key!
Well, that's it for the night. Thanks for reading.
Happy Healthy Hair,
