^^^ Ditto. I will be washing my hair and attempting something (braid out/twist out/bantu knot out)

Couple more pics:

Here is Day 2 of my braidout:

By Day 3, I was tired of it and decided to s-l-o-w-l-y detangle to get ready for a shampoo/dc. Here's how it looked:

But of course, by the time I finished with all the detangling (took about 45 min), I didn't feel like fooling with my hair anymore so I just threw on my bonnet and went to bed.

here is a bantou knot out i did last night on dry hair. i did four knots two in front and two in back. Everytime i do a bantou knot out i always have that one knot that doesnt act right and loosens up over night and comes out mostly str8. This time is was the one in the front, so one side looks real good and the other side looks like i dont know so now today i have to make sure that my right side is always shown since it looks the best .

It looks very pretty? What do you use to secure the knots. I've tried hair pins but they don't work that well for me. What does keep them in place over night is the little ouchless bands. Just wrap them around each knot, like you would a rubber band. Also, istead of a bonnet (not sure what you sleep in), I put a scarve on. That also aids in making sure the hair isn't moving around too much. but again, your hair is lovely.

Looks good; did you use any product before twisting?

thansk. I used rubber bands to secure the knots and i sleep with a satin cap on which is real loose and i need to get a new one.but i will try using the ouchless bands and putting on a scarf.
