Relaxed hair means straight hair ALL the time.....Um, NOT!!

sunnieb · Sep 14, 2011

Ok, relaxed ladies - let's show off our non-straight hair styles in here. I don't care if it's an updo, downdo, bun, whatever! And don't you dare post a pic without telling us how you got the style! :nono2:

****And I want to go on record as stating that I am in no way using this thread as a selfish attempt to steal styling ideas to show off my hair this holiday season. ****

Okkkaayyyy......go!

Nix08 and divachyk - help a sista out!

Nix08 · Sep 14, 2011

Lets see most of my styles have probably been seen before and are not all that fancy but here it goes..

Front poof with a mini claw clip, second mini claw clip holding up hair by the ears and a back bun

Pincurls rolled and layed flat against the head before pinning on head

2 strand twists, bantu'd out

Banana clip ponytail

And my favourite is in my siggy...CARUSO's:yep

Softerlove · Sep 14, 2011

I'm PS ing to BSL! So here's my fave no-elastic bun (tension scares me)

But if I wear my hair out its flexi rod or loosely blow dried fresh out of red rollers (im heat free now)

Beautiful ladies! I'm natural but will be jacking some of these styles when I rock my tresses straight! **subbing**

SmileyNY · Sep 14, 2011

Great thread :yep:

I'm texlaxed.

This is a "finger styling" from the beginning of the year. Basically leave-in was put on my wet hair & I sat under a hooded dryer. My hair was fluffed out with a diffuser once it was dry.

This is a wash & go from June.

Another wash & go from this summer...

Put in 4 bantu knots, lightly combed, and did a banana clip ponytail:

Braidout done with 4 braids, lightly combed, and put in a southern tease bun (added a bun net to hold everything in place):

Be sure to pull a few strands out in the front/side. It makes for a very feminine touch.

Nix08 · Sep 14, 2011

^^^ Good thing you mentioned I don't normally like my hair all pulled back like that (however it seems nice and easy) the strands in the front will make me feel like a lovely lady :giggle:

divachyk · Sep 14, 2011

Daaaanng! Y'all are making me mad with all these beautiful buns. I wish I was as creative. I'm not relaxed but I wonder if I could do these when I flat iron my hair.

One of the things I like about my relaxed hair is that it is so versatile. I can wear it straight with ease, but I can also wear it in textured styles when I please.

Bandu knot-out, my favorite stretching "protective" style. Low manipulation and it keeps my hair off my clothes!

I usually make sure my hair is damp, then I will add leave in condish and seal with oil. I part my hair in squares about 1.5" in length and width, and start to twisting, then wrap the hair around the base. The key for me is that it is damp and I make sure the ends are wrapped perfectly so I get a springy curl. It lasts for a while!
