How To\'s

Was surfing the web today for hair information (nothing unusual there!) when I came across two sites that I thought were pretty informative as far as how to create hair styles. Wanted to post in case anyone else was interested. Enjoy!

French Twist Instructions
Be sure to check out the rest of the website b/c there are lots of interesting protective hairstyles shown!

Okay Hairlove, in supporting this thread as a possible complete reference of "How-To's" I'm gonna add something that I saw previously posted by someone else.

Re: How To\'s

Spagirl I just wanted to say a big thank you for the Mowtown Girl link, her website is very informative. I plan on using many of her tips and hers is by far the best how to for the twist out.

Though I've been to Motown Girl site months ago

, I didn't think to post it here until I saw Hairlove post it on another thread. So, "Your Welcome" as far as that goes and I think Hairlove would say "Your Welcome" too.

Relaxing

Spagirl · Jul 21, 2003

Re: How To\'s

Wow! I've never seen a relaxer illustrated with so many detailed step by step pictures. It was surprising to hear Milady (A major Cosmotology Company) teach stylist to pull relaxer through hair on clients that come to you from another stylist. Which is a good reason for me to find 1 stylist to solely do my relaxers. That is, until I can do my own.

I truely enjoyed view this...Thanks for sharing!

Various updos

Re: How To\'s

Updo's!

Especially check out "Cassandra's curls" as an alternative to the bun. I think you will have to copy and paste this link because the commas interrupt the hotlink.
