african export is one of my fave youtubers. i love her realistic/around the way approach to hair. if she knows something she shares it and if she doesn’t she says she does not.
recently she straightened her hair and has been playing with styles to get the most out of her blow dried tresses. going back to what you know works even while you have straight hair – braid outs – equals lots of body and lots of style. [click to continue…]
one of the sneaky ways i get my hair to hang longer when i want a braid out is to blow dry it on cool. this gives me optimally stretched hair and the length i want for my braid outs.
juvenescent.wordpress.com had this wonderful braid out tutorial that is an exact copy of what i do. if you are looking to get a longer, heavier braid out, head these tips.
loving this hair people!

is our girl corinne giving off hair porn vibes? [ratings]
can we please talk about how fab this chick’s hair is??!!
can we please have this conversation, people?!
i know i cannot be the only natural who salivates at the site of her luscious locs!
this hairstyle is a must cop for naturals everywhere. it’s sooo big and pretty, and puts you in the mind of a tamer diana ross hairstyle. more modern and less, vogue and 60′s-ish; not that there is anything wrong with the 60′s.
if you have 3c hair or a looser 4a curl, you can easily do this hair with a twist-n-curl style, being sure to use bigger twist sections as this is not tightly curled hair but not too loose either. curly nikki has a great tutorial on how to do a twist and curl.
for those with more coarse 4a-4b hair, you will need to elongate the hair first, twist and then put rollers on the end since your battle with maintaining this style will be the shrinkage monster.
you can also go the weave or wig route.
best known for her big hair, before being natural was ever “in” or really an option without ridicule for women who didn’t have “good hair”, one of my favorite Different World hairstyles was when cree wore her hair in a pony; some up, some down.
this style is so cute and chic and can be worn by girls, tweens and adults alike!
