Team Kinks! I’m all up on yo screen discussing foreheads and ponytails. I always felt due to the size of my head and the width of my forehead low ponytails would be unflattering on me. I have stirred away from it for years. The first time I tried it all I saw was a man with a long ponytail. I pretty much saw my brother. I have strong features and at the time I didn’t know the beauty of these features, I just saw it as a hindrance and something to be covered. So I would always wear hairstyles that covered the true size of my head. I would wear swooped styles that hid the “five fingers” forehead and overall brought less attention.

Have you ever had an itchy scalp result after using aloe vera on your natural hair? Well, this might be the cause. Did you know fresh aloe vera can have poison in the leaf called “Aloin” aka “aloe latex”? This aloe latex has more harmful effects internally than it does externally. However, it can affect your skin in such a way that results in itchiness or rashes. If not cleaned out well your experience with using fresh aloe vera on your natural hair might not be as enjoyable as the majority. So watch this video for proper cleaning methods of the aloe vera leaf. Do you have a whole bunch of white stuff in your hair after doing an aloe vera treatment? You strained it first and still get this pulp all in your hair? Well, I might have the best method to strain aloe vera, avocado, or even flaxseed. Click play and enjoy it.

Hey Kinks! If your healthy tresses are anything like mine you’re lucky if you get a full day of a twist out on your kinky coily curly hair. How frustrating right? You begin what you believe would be a “real quick” twisting session. You know how you think to yourself “Well let me twist my hair real quick”, yea right! So a few snacks, bottles of water and several tv shows later you’re finally finished twisting your natural hair. It’s the next day, you untwist and your results are looking like “I woke up like this”.   Beautiful. So you’re off to start your day. Unfortunately, by the end of the day your hair has completely declared war on you and is puffed out in the worst way. Where they do that at?!  Well I might have a solution…

I’ve tested this technique out on my hair for a few weeks before sharing with you all. I used different products and I still received the same great results. So my name is Nappyfu and I approve this message. My hair is type 4c, thick, coils for days and high density. It loves the twist out method above. It’s clear across the board that it’s successful for type 4 natural hair. It gives me awesome results each time I do it. Let’s be real, our natural hair does have a definition when it comes to these styles but the problem is it tends not to last. With what I like to call the “Tightly Twist Method” you can have your perfect twist out last for much longer.

Checkout the video and if you like the method please share it. We want everyone to have an “I woke up like this” twist out that lasts. Starting with freshly washed hair let’s get this twistout going…
