Butter deep conditioner and smelly hair.

Call me crazy but i did a butter deep condition lol. So heres what i did.
On freshly cowashed and avc rinsed hair i rubbed on the butter lol and but hair into a high bun wrapt a plastic mini garbage bag and then a towel around it. Oh teehee this is the recipe

Butter
Honey
Shea butter
Organic root stimulator replenishing conditioner.

I melted butter and honey in the microwave ( this tastes good on bread, tortillas, and english muffins.)

To the honey butter mixture i added the conditioner and some shea butte rto thicken it up.

Wow so um yeah it made my hair feel great, not as hard to wash out as i thought it would be, buuuut lol my hair sniffed funny later on! I rinsed it out with hot water (NOT THE BEST FOR HAIR , warm water is BETTER. Do as i say not as i do lol) anyway ended updetangling my hair with hello hydration (strong sent) and then rinsed that out and used shea moisture deep treatment mask as my leave in but it still kinda had that umm rancid dairy smell to it. But since my hair felt great i decided to put it in 12 braids for a braid out. The next day i did the dutch braid style.

So lesson learned dairy can be scarey lol Im thinking this would be better as a pre-poo not a afterwash treatment.

Oh p.s. Here are some pics of the post butter braid out before i styled it.

Protective style

So because im now back on the mainland my hair and skin is sooo dry! Lol i have decided with winter coming and what not i seriously need to protective style my hair alot, but i am not allowed to do buns ( i have a serious bun,high bun,messy bun addiction which might end up doing more harm then good ;/) so i came up with this cute french braid hairstyle. This is what i did;
1. On stretched and moisturized hair i frist sectioned off my bangs, then braided the (to keep them out of way).

2. I made a small side part and parted hair down my hairline on both sides, after clipping up the rest of my hair i o applied more moisturizer (shea moisture deep treatment mask) and cornrowed the left side. I stopt braiding when i ran out of hair leaving the ends loose than did the other side.

3. I sectioned the back straight (i think) down the middle, i made 2 dutch braids on on each side and added the hair from the cornrows into the braids.

4. I unbraided my bangs and flat ironed them.
Thats it pretty simple im hoping to get a couple days out of this style. I have been covering it at night with a silk scarf and this morning, if the ends start to unravel or get fozy from like say rubbing against your sweater than just unbraid the very ends smooth more moisturizer on and rebraid. Here are pictures from second day.

Nail care and stuff.

So i was think about posting more stuff about nails. Like nail care, nail art, growing long nails. My mails are usually longish but i want to grow them longer meaning i have to give extra care to
my nails so they can reach desired length. Anywho the first picture is my nails as of august 1 2012 lol (newly painted yesterday) and the second is my goal length maybe even a little shorter.

My artwork.

These are some of the artwork i have done at my job, i do free hand jagua/henna tattoos. All the artwork on this page was made by using jagua fruit ink, the jagua fruit is a similar process to henna except instead of the reddish brown, it stains a dark navy blue. Also all of the tattoos still have the jagua gel to get the dark blue color you must leave the gel on for 3-8 hours than wash it of and the color darkens in 12 hours.

 This dragon on the little boys am took my about 10 minutes to do.
 This tribal tattoo took 2 1/2 hours and that was with the guy helping my with some of the design. There is more on the back you just can't see it.
 This one took less than 5 minutes.
And this is what i do when i am bored at work lol.

those kinda hair days....

So yeah, today was one of those day.... I woke up cowashed my hair and put in some conditioner and some shea moisture curl enhancing smoothie (review coming soon, lol) then did pigtails and twisted the ends super easy, frizz free, and semi stretched. Sounds good right? Yeah well i decided i wanted to try a "cute style" exept due to my henna treatment my hair felt dry (it wasnt cuz i just moisturized) so i put some vatika oil and some hair gel in it and styled it into a high bun, It looked cute but i so wasnt feelin' it.
After trying multiple hairstyles and nothing working out i decided to rinse my hair clean and deep condition it. So here i am typing this post while my hair is up in a bun wrap in a scarf and a towel/;. This post must be really boring to read lol i feel like im runing out of style options):.
