Buns
It’s coming along ever so slowly, but it’s coming! Here are two new styles for the 101 Twisted Styles list.
First, from NotoriousLYNappy1 on YouTube, with tutorial included. Cute!!
And my most recent submission:
This is the style I wore to a 50 year anniversary wedding recently. I am working on a little tutorial to show how I did this.
And in case you were wondering: Yes, buns are taking over the world!. Power to the bun!

Of course, I’ve been in my precious twists the last few weeks. I’ve worn them in a bun like this.
Two days ago I took my twists out and have been wearing my hair down some for a change. I have been re-moisturizing with KBB’s Ambrosia which I have never tried before (full review incoming once I’ve tried it out fully). I like it so far though.
I will probably wear my twist out down one more day and then back to buns! I do feel like buns are helping my hair retain a bit more length and I’m also noticing less split ends. I will do an official length check in about a month or so.

I am wearing a bun this weekend. I call it my “Banded Bun” and am currently working on a video tutorial on it. I hope to have it up sometime this weekend. Life has been a little busy!

I tried to do a big, quick twist out last night. It wasn’t completely dry in the morning and I was in a hurry, so I did a high bun. I didn’t worry about my edges all that much, just smoothed back a little Almond Glaze with my palms. It turned out nicely.

Still straight right now though I’m rocking a bun currently. Someone at work asked me why I straightened my hair only to put it up in a bun. I wore it down one day, the other two days, I had it up.
I told her three reasons. One, I don’t like hair on my neck very much, especially when I’m working. Two, just because my hair is straight, does not mean I’m giving up on the protective styling! My ends are still fragile, maybe more so. Finally, I like buns. They are elegant and they are simple. Here’s my messy bun from yesterday.
In other news: For those of you who’ve been asking, I will do more youtube videos, so you can expect those in the future. One I’m working on right now is a puff tutorial. I’m also working on more hair history related pieces that I hope you will all enjoy. This week you can expect a few posts on straight natural hair.
Thanks, as always, for reading!
