[mrsladypink]

You are an inspiration so thank you so much. Also my BC was Feb. 17, 2012 and I hope my growth goes as well as yours did.

[angela86652000]

Aren't you super cute??. Your info. is well needed. Thanks. BTW, were you a MC at the 'Naturall Girls Rock' event in Atlanta Georgia?. If so, you were great. Take care.

[Rasjr93]

hello. i have a question. my hair is natural curly. to the point if i get really good shampoo and con. it looks like comb coils/twist, so you said it will last a week, but snice my hair is natural curly will it just make my hair curlyer b/c im tryin to really relaly curl my hair. so please contact asap. thank you =)

[grownNsexylady]

I absolutely love your videos but my hair texture seems so coarse and none of your techniques seem to be working for me :-(

[liab]

what kind of gel and moisturizer did you use? pls email me, looks wonderful!! just had my big chop

[scharf74]

Vee, thank you so much for this video. I bc a week ago today after 7 months transitioning, and watching your videos for the past 2 months gave me the strength to do it...!

For some reason I have "fuzzy/frizzy" areas and this method helped define those curls...I am hoping(praying) that doing this will eventually "train" them to curl as my hair grows out more....

[HappyHooker83]

What hairstyle is this? I want that!

[Carla08120812]

Beautiful. I've been braided for 8 mos. Very little permed hair left, but parting and clearing for med sized box braids is agony. Hoping to BC in late March. I'd like a true geometric fro' but this looks great.I have about four inches all around now so the twists may not work.

[blustars3893]

I tryed it out and I love the results!!! thanks so much! =)

[Learning4Fun2011]

Thanks for sharing. I just did the big chop and now I know how to style my hair!:)

[yellakid210]

[Purpleppleater42]

[F1984O]

I'm newly natural...1 month in and before I start asking questions do you already have videos about moisturizers and deep conditioners? Loving your vids so far!

[gmaheia226]

Thanks for this video. New to short and natural without heat. I will do this one tonight. Thanks sooooooo much

[blahblahblahman]

PSSSHHH my hair is WAY too dense to do this hairstyle...would take me HOURS!

Very cute on you though.

[kierredestiny2]

This is beautiful.. my hair is natural with a bit more length.. I wonder if this will work... going to experiment! Thank you for posting!

[SuperSexxiE]

I think we have the same texture hair! LOVE

[SophieBDaModel]

Thank so much for sharing this.i recently buzzed my hair in mid january and ve been contemplating wither or not I should cut my hair but know I think that I will keep it. --I want to find something that would suite my inches and some cm hair that I can style with the fact that bleached my take ad well and it has started to grow out. Place keep the videos coming.#GodBless#

[mstlaw1]

Thank u!

[mstlaw1]

This is my exact technique. I'm 6 weeks post BC today. My question is how do you refresh it daily w/o rewetting ur entire head? Also, what is ur nighttime regimen? Thx

[MsVcharles]

@mstlaw1 Watch vid #55

[0099396]

@MsVcharles I love how you number your vids and use that cute flower so theyre easy to refer back to. i subbed =)

[Tennissgirl]

Hi, I'm 15 and I'm transitioning. Been doing it for 2 months. But it's really hard for meh because my hair is short and not growing and I just want to cut it off but my mom won't let me! What should I do?

[tinacray]

i enjoyed ur video! im not sure if my hair will coil as nicely as urs, but i am definitely about to try this! thank you for ur video!! subscribed by the way ;-)

[MsInterpret]

LOL NVM I saw the video you posted about Gel flaking.

[MsInterpret]

That is TOO CUTE!! I'ma try this when my hair gets a lil longer.

What brand do you use for the styling gel?

[SumerSmiles]

i just tried and twist out on my hair and now im going to try this =)

[SPIRITofLOVE76]

Thank you for this video doing the BC on July 15th

[prettyjaz1fyi]

my hair is just like yours! it coils the same and everything! I am so glad i found your videos.. i cut mine in march and my hair is about this length now and i am so tired of "washing and go(s)". I'm new and i dont know what to do.. So i will definitiely be watching all of your videos! I love my natural hair! i'm just lost... PS What is your hair type?? Bc i dont know what to classify hair like ours as... Plz respond:)

[MsVcharles]

[sammy69831]

i like i like, thnk u! cz i didnt knw wt 2do with my twa im clueless

[sgraves369]

Very informative.Thanks so much, I needed a style for my TWA and this is perfect!

[NaturalBeauty12011]

Came out great. Although it looks very time consuming. If I do that at night what steps do I take in the morning to get up and go?

[Peaceandhairgrease1]

Nice!

[dartress1]

Thank you very much for this style. I started doing my hair like this before your video was done, lol. BTW I love your videos!

[bevbrad100]

I love it! Tried it exactly as you instructed and the curls are beautiful .... Thank you:)

[kelikelbelle]

aww...i'm so sad i have NO idea how to define my curls or even do this... i just bc'd around the end of last month and my hair is about 2 1/2 to 3" and it has super shrinkage and its suuuper curly. I tried to do gel and a comb but my hair gets really gunky..Help?

[lottabody33]

i love this style so much..

[ff7tiesbabee]

Cute style. I feel my arms getting tired for you :)

[Icylillies]

Oh wow! M hair is shoulder length, I wonder if I can try this ^_^

[MsVcharles]

@Icylillies Im posting a newer hair technique for longer hair on Tues that would be better for you sis. =D

[TheSlinderella]

I'll be doing this tonight!!!!

[louloumatou]

very cute!! i knew nothig about doing stuff like that when i had a twa! :)

[TheSweetestVegan]

I miss my TWA

[MsVcharles]

@TheSweetestVegan There are times that I do as well..lol

[seniorrr08]

How is this a protective style if a protective style is a style that hides your ends from sun exposure, wind, collar on clothing, etc? Just curious... Love your video! (:

[MsVcharles]

@seniorrr08 Protective styles also includes those that you do not manipulate on a daily basis. Once I style my hair it last me 7 days....no need to re-wash or recomb it.

[MsVcharles]

@seniorrr08 Protective styles also protect our hair from ourselves...."hands in the head syndrome"...ha ha ha

[20pearlsNcurls]

This is SUCH a cute and easy style for TWA's! Question Vee--- When is a twa NOLONGER a twa? Is there a length that determines it? I'm sure shrinkage has to factor into it too. I LOVE my twa and I want it to stay this way for as long as it can. Thanks for sharing this vid again!

[MsVcharles]

@20pearlsNcurls You know what sis...for me personally I dont take account of the shrinkage....because my hair now is past my shoulders and there is no way that I could style my hair that easily using the same method. I actually had to change up my method when I was about 5 months natural. This is why I added the "2-4" months post BC in the title...thats when I used this particular method. I will be posting the newer method next week Tues so stay tuned. =D

[20pearlsNcurls]

@MsVcharles My question was a lil off topic b/c I have trouble focusing :o) I was just wondering when I should stop referring to my twa as a twa and call it a short afro. LOL!!! You have had some great growth over the past year. I'm looking forward to Tue's vid!

[MsVcharles]

@20pearlsNcurls No sis...of course it wasnt off topic...and if it was...oh well...LOL. Ask away, if I can help you out I always will. =D

[shaunesethenatural]

Oh man!!! I remember the days of the being three months natural! Tell you the truth I don't miss those days at all! I've always just wanted a big ol' fro! I'm well on the way now! Your hair has come a long way girl

[MsVcharles]

@shaunesethenatural Yea...right. Thanks sis!

[shaunesethenatural]

Oh man!!! I remember the days of the being three months natural! Tell you the truth I don't miss those days at all! I've always just wanted a big ol' fro! I'm well on the way now!

[MsVcharles]

@shaunesethenatural I know what you mean sis! But I gotta tell the truth...some days I miss how easy and quick it was to style my hair...lol.

[DeniceNoelle]

Did u let it air dry or did u sit under a dryer?

[MsVcharles]

@DeniceNoelle I always air dry my hair....so I only do it on Friday or Sunday afternoon when I dont have anything to do or anywhere to go. =D

[NotoriousLYNappy1]

cute! lol..I have got to start watching the vids all the way thru before I ask a question :)

[MsVcharles]

@NotoriousLYNappy1 LOL...no worries.

[MsVcharles]

@NotoriousLYNappy1 A week.

[Anewme714]

Thanks for this video.... today is BIG CHOP DAY for me!!! This helps :)

[MsVcharles]

@Anewme714 YAY! Congrats on your BC sis!!!

[avaloncar18]

*throwback* OMG I remember watching your old videos before my big chop and waiting to do my hair just like this...it didn't come out this way but either way I still loved your videos!!

[LovingMyOwnSkin]

Great video, keep them coming... : )

[queeny107]

I can't believe your hair was that short!!

[MsVcharles]

@queeny107 Yup, and this was my 3rd month...lol

[naturalhairful]

I was so glad to see this video. I needed to know a quicker way to fingercoil. Your hair looks really cute. Very nice video demonstration.

[MsVcharles]

@naturalhairful Yea, I decided to post it for the TEEEENIE TWA sistas...lol. I still have my denman coils vid coming soon (Tues.).

[SueLocd]

So cute & such a nice shine as well. LOVE those curls. Go you!!

I love my Kinky curly wash & go style at the moment. It's easy to do & is the style I wear that my husband also really likes & always comments on, so I'll be sticking with it for a while. I also started using a product called t444z on my scalp (Heard of it?) & my hair is getting really nice & thick, so I'm going to try your twists when I have some more growth (at 3" right now).

Much <3 V! Keep making the vids...we love them!!

[TheSoulfulSista]

cute. do you do this with your hair now that it's longer?

[MsVcharles]

@TheSoulfulSista I still layer my products on the same way however I use a slightly different technique that I will be posting up on Tues for you guys. =D
