HOTD - Bunning Away!

Wearing a bun can be so refreshing when you haven't worn one in so long, it's nice to have a face free of hair lol, (excuse the messy bedroom in the picture, major laziness going on right now).


To achieve this style, last night I moisturised and sealed my hair, put my hair in several braids and did the GHE. In the morning I took out the braids, finger combed my hair and just applied a scarf to lay down my edges, put it in a bun and your good to go!


I'm setting myself a challenge to be free of heat for a month, having my hair straight looks so pretty, but because I don't like my hair to be weighed down, I get reluctant to moisture and seal my hair on a regular basis, which is just asking for trouble.


How are you guys wearing your hair today?
Any fellow bunners? LOL

Heat Free Bangs

For the ladies with bangs, treating yourself to a heat pass may sound like a good thing at first, but trying to style your bangs without reaching for the flat iron/straighteners all week is hard!
 So I started to brainstorm different ideas to keep my bangs in place over night...

 (1) Wrapping my whole head over night? It was alright, but my bangs didn't fall into the position I would of liked.

(2) Putting my bangs in a roller over night? TERRIBLE! Uncomfortable to sleep with, and it fell out half way through the night.

(1) + (2) = perfect! So what I did was wrapped my hair before going to sleep, making sure it was secure. Then in the morning when I took my wrap down I got the section of my bangs and put them in the roller. I left it in there for about 10
minutes and the end result...

Perfect! 

Would love to hear what you ladies do to style your bangs heat free? If you have any other suggestions let me know.

Going Into Hair Boot Camp!

When you have to juggle multiple assignments, reading, and having a job, taking care of your hair... (im ashamed to say) kinda takes a back seat smh. I still do my weekly dc's, but moisturising and sealing everyday is more like when I remember, or can be bothered.

Well now I'm taking a stand! Starting from Weds 7th my hair is going into boot camp. This means I will be moisturising and sealing everyday without fail, protective styling, deep conditioning weekly and I may throw in a little midweek co-wash in there if im feeling lucky haha.

I feel like I've come far on my hair journey, and  I don't want to see a setback because of my own laziness :(
Wish me luck! :D
