My Hair: Styling My Twisted Faux Hawk

Ello, ello my lovelies!

I hope you guys are having a great day! As promised here are three ways to style the style :-).

All you need are a few hairpins.

 Style #1- Side Swept

 Pull all of the hair over to one side! So simple :-D. You may need to pin the twists from the cornrows in place. Gravity...lol. Check out the bonus pic to see what I mean.

 


Style #2 - Bumped!

Bumped!

Create a small pomp with the twists that make up your bang. Keep in place with your hand for now.

Just ignore the background :-p

Take the twists from the cornrows on either side of your head and pin the pomp into place by pinning the twists strategically.

Fluff your bump and that's it!

Style #3 - Get loose!

That's right, Just unravel your twists for a banging twistout! I did not want my hair out of it's protective style just yet however so I just sacrificed one twist :-D

I did remember to take a few photos on wash day tho. Excuse the fuzz, I did say it was wash day :-D. And a hot day too...no, I am not naked! Just greasy, lol.

That's it ppls!. I hope you enjoyed this post. Feel free and encouraged to try this style with it's many variations! 

When you do, send your photos to msnatuallyinclined@gmail.com so I can see and if you don't mind, I'll share your fly style on the Facebook page so be sure to like the page to get all the updates.

As always,

LOL, Gravity as it's finest.

My Hair: Half Hawk Tutorial

Yo yo yo! Wassup?

Lol. That's something I started a few months ago when me cousin called. It is thee funniest story but quite long so onto other more pertinent matters.

My hair! Which is why you're reading, lol. I don't have any editing software at the moment and for me to record without stopping would be such a waste of your time to watch that I decided to do a picture slideshow instead.

 I started with an old twist out. I unravelled any defined clumps prior to detangling and moisturizing.

I lightly spritzed my hair with a water and glycerin mix, moisturized my hair with Organics Olive Oil Leave-In Conditioner, detangled, then sealed with Jojoba Oil.

Step 1.
Part your hair from ear to ear, leaving the majority of hair to the back. Band the back for now as we'll be working on the front for a while. Part the front into three large sections from back to front with the middle section being the largest.

Step 2.
Plait or flat twist the side section into cornrows leading to the center. I choose to do four but you can do as many as you like. Repeat with the other side.

Step 3.
Begin twisting! I twisted the hair at the crown of my head forward towards my face for a banged look. I also twisted it smaller as this section of my head has little to no real curl definition on it's own. I have to keep it well stretched. And no, I will not go into the typing thing.

Step 4.
Twist the back portion however you would like. I choose to do medium sized twists with arced parting. You don't see any parting when the hair falls naturally with the arcs and my hair will look really full when I choose to unravel the twists for a twist out.

That's it! The only thing hard about this style is that I had difficulties plaiting up the sides. It would have been much easier to flat twist it but I wanted it to last a little longer than flat twists would allow. 

If you follow me on Facebook, you'll know that I've been having some severe migraines recently. That's why my clothes are different, because I had to wait until the next day to finish my hair. But it really doesn't take long at all.

I finished it the next morning and that evening was my Super D's Birthday Party!! Whoop Whoop! Epic balloon battles were had that night. Epic.

Have you tried this style before? Want to try it? What would you do or have you done different? 

Let me know in the comments section and you can send your photos to msnaturallyinclined@gmail.com! I'll post them here and on the Facebook page to show everyone how fly you are! Make sure to click 'Like' on the page. Thanks.

Have a wonderful day my lovelies!!
