I'm glad I didn't waste my time doing my whole head.
Some of us don't have curl definition. My back has it but my front is just straight and frizzy. I kind of knew this wasn't going to work, that's why I did a test curl. If anybody again suggest getting curl definition by some method we are going to
I just tried a test curl in the front of my hair(midnight in Chi town), oh well this won't work for me. My hair is too long in the front and too straight. I think the back will curl up but the front is just a hot frizzy mess.
I kinda have the same problem... that's why I stopped texturizing.I just tried a test curl in the front of my hair(midnight in Chi town), oh well this won't work for me. My hair is too long in the front and too straight. I think the back will curl up but the front is just a hot frizzy mess.
Welp..... that took the cake for me!! No one else needs to post shingling pics after that!!!I thought I was going to walk in here and be blown away at all the shingling pics... but where are they!?!?! I have tried it a couple times, with mixed results, but will share anyway...
This is from my BC in Mar, 2007, and was shingled with Ms. Jessies Curly Pudding:
BEFORE:
AFTER:
This is after she stretched it with heat:
This picture is from that summer, and is a type of shingling process (brushing the product through and letting it dry), and was done with eco-styler gel and cantu shea butter leave-in
Here is a shingle I did myself, a year after my BC using curly pudding (not that cute, especially from the front, but at least you get the picture):
Another photo of something similar to shingling, but it was done with pantene hydrating curls conditioner instead of curly pudding (brushed through with a denman brush and in the process of air drying):
Hope this helps! Let me know how it goes if you all try it!

This was shortly after my BC. This thread has inspired me to try again. I think I'm going to use Serenity's method and use the Hydrating Curls conditioner!
Do you have to have natural hair or can this be done on relaxed hair? (I feel like this is a dumb question)
