The Nairobi Water Co. seems to be rationing water in my area (3rd world problems), so it looks like i will not be hennaing my hair this weekend after all 😦 If you’ve ever done a henna treatment, then you know that rinsing off the henna is no joke. You need A LOT of water. However, i realized that rinsing off ‘Nupur henna‘ is way easier than rinsing off the henna i was using before.
Due to this slight inconvenience, i decided to just wash my hair yesterday. I did not do an oil prepoo first like i would normally do. I only used a sulfate-free shampoo and followed up with a rinse-out conditioner (i was in no mood to deep condition).
The Shampoo & Conditioner i used
This is how i wore my hair today…
It looked better earlier but since i hadn’t let it dry all the way, it got kinda big and a little frizzy. The curls also fell pretty quickly. Now i don’t know how am going to wear it tomorrow since i don’t want to comb it out. I might resort to bunning which is a shame seeing that my last braid out lasted me a whole week!
Click here to for a braid-out post i put up exactly 1 year ago. A lot has changed since then like…
1) I couldn’t cornrow back then. Now i can 🙂
2) My hair was shorter and so my curls/waves didn’t hang the way i wanted them too. They just stayed up there and i didn’t like that look.
3) I couldn’t really rock a braid-out style comfortably 😮
4) I didn’t like braid-outs at all (i preferred bantu knot-outs). Now i prefer braid-outs to bantu knot-outs 😀 I should try those soon btw.
Here is another braid out epic fail post from May of last year.
Why do you hide your face and you showed it at another post??
