Decided to try a different twisting method...thanks to one of my lovely Ls.

Method:

1. I washed my hair 

2. Used a little Miss Jessie's Curl Merignue on each section of hair

3. I did two strand twists to the scalp with bantu knots to curl the ends...

Note: I started on the outsides of my head, then parted from the crown. Did a middle portion containing about 5 twists, and the front contained about 4. With 3 on both sides.

Pro's:

- I like the fact that my curls hang instead of stick out

- First time really rocking my hair without a bobby pin or bow in it and I like it

Con's:

- The bantu knots didn't hold well SO I think I might try rods next time.

- Think I should have done more twists in the center parts of my hair, being that that's where the thickest part of my hair dwells.

This is right after I took the twists down, as the day went on they dropped more and had a little more length.
