How to get a soft, shiny, and bouncy twist out

[Godsflame1]

The hair butter, is it Carols Daughter.. Or just Carols hair butter, I don't think I've seen that. I want shine but don't want my hair to feel greasy like the coconut oil a makes it feel.

[GorgeousGemini23]

@Godsflame1 omg I just realized that I put Carols instead of KARENS. Its acutally Karens hair butter that I used. just google Karens Body Beautiful products and you'll see what i'm talking about. That product is amazing and smells wonderful! it wont make you hair greasy whatsoever.

Loooovvve your natural hair.i have decided on going natural next week after rocking my new frontlace wig. will proberly do twists like your own or just gel it back so that it is wavy. im mixed race too so it should look nice but it suits anyone so long as you have the confidence to show it off and not only wear it that way in the house lol. your baby is soooo cute. you dont need the wigs you suit the hair you have now. you are cute! from denny in london u.k. xx

I transitioned for 6 months and then once I had about 3 to 4 inches of new growth, I BC'd. My hair was below my shoulder so it was kind of scary but I was happy to do it. Regarding the wig, I purchase the 14 inch Deep wave. What do you do with your hair when you wear your wigs. Do you corn row braid it or twist it? I can't braid my own hair so I'm looking for other alternatives.

[GorgeousGemini23]

@keshamcdade Ooooh ok I see. Yeah when I wear my wigs I cornrown my hair straight back then put a wig cap on. Since you cannot braid your hair you can put it in twist then pin them back with flat clips or bobby pins. One time (because I was lazy) I just put 2 stocking caps on my head to keep my fro flat. Just make sure its not too tight on your head. Are you enjoying your wig? :) I need to get another one once we settle into out new house.

[keshamcdade]

OMG, you look like a young Jennifer Beal. Beautiful hair! I just went natural 6 months ago and I'm loving it!!!!!!!!!!!! Great tip for twist outs. Also, I really loved your miss wigs review. Its fits you perfectly. I just got one and I plan to wear it tonight!

[GorgeousGemini23]

@keshamcdade Thank you!!! Congrats on going natral! Did you transition or did you BC?! What style wig did you purchase?! I looovvveee those wigs!

[LovelyBlackBeauty1]

Your hair came out so pretty, and you are so pretty ; ) I wish most females were like me instead of hating on each other we should compliment one another. Keep up the good work girly : )

[GorgeousGemini23]

@LovelyBlackBeauty1 Aww thank you! Yeah Females need to quit "hating" oneach other and give props where it's due. Thank you for watcing and taking the time to comment :)

[LovelyBlackBeauty1]

@GorgeousGemini23 your welcome : )

[msvaughn]

Your hair looks GREAT in these pics!! You have a curly/course texture which is a rare blend! Kinda like mine, I think it's from having a biracial grandparent ;-) ...are you wearing a bathing suit in one of your pics? lol.

[GorgeousGemini23]

@msvaughn lol yeah I was sporting a bathing suit tryna be sexy ;) lol! You think that might be the reason behind my texture as well? I am of mixed race but kinda thought I got the full afro texture from my mothers side of the family

[TheRealShortyBrown]

[GorgeousGemini23]

[suthernbella]

[GorgeousGemini23]

@suthernbella I unintentionally used "Utah slang". Been here a year too long. Ugh...lol here it means nasty, unsightly, funky..

[Acting1]

[legslikewhoa]

[TheCurlyFitChic]

You look fantastic with your natural hair! It is definitely becoming. You can see more of your face and it enhances your eyes! I get all crazy whenever I see people with natural hair. Even in the grocery store.  I will go up and tell them how beautiful there hair is to me! Wonderful. Congratulations on making that decision!

[GorgeousGemini23]

@TheCurlyFitChic omg thank you!!! I'm the same way when I see black ppl in Utah (extrememly rare lol) and they have long beautiful natural hair. I want to loc my hair up soooo bad now! I was scared to get locs cause I thought it was a "forever thing" but I saw a chick here on youtube who picked out her locks and her hair was ridiculously long. Do you think it would be wise of me to loc up my hair now? or wait till it gets longer? :) thanx for watching btw!

[MsCarnisha]

You look gorgeous! And love!! ur hair!

[MsCarnisha]

@MsCarnisha I just did my big chop 3 weeks ago! man its growing but cant wait till it gets longer!.. no more wigs! lmao
