Tutorial: Quick Updos for Braids, Twists & Locs

In the month of November, I decided to begin protective styling with my favorite thing- kinky twists! At least… I think they were kinky twists.

Curly Fro- Get the look!

Pump up the volume! Achieve a similar look by using medium to large sized perm or flexi rods. Set while wet. When dry, using a little oil on your fingertips, separate each ringlet. Shake & fluff gently at the roots with a pick or your fingers until you’ve achieved the desired look. Have fun with your hair! xoxo ~Toia
