*BEST* fotki tutorials!

Ok ladies...name them! :D

As much as I love looking through fotki to drool at long hair, I *love* it when members post tutorials...as in, where they show how to do stuff step by step.

Maybe we can make a list of who does what (no self nominations please!:p ). I wanna know that the tutorial a member puts in a fotki is so simple to follow that another member was thrilled to nominate her.

I started this thread in off-topic to ensure that only LHCF members can view it. However, if a member requires people to contact her for her password to view her fotki, please do not post anyone's password in this thread. Simply give her kudos by mentioning her name and then we can each take it from there.

I'll start. (crlsweetie912....I'm waiting on you to show us sistas how to hook up those cute styles you do every week)

It's in My Settings. Then you click on Settings. Under the Appearance heading, theres a title "Color Scheme" Click change and you can make changes to the colors in your fotki display. HTH.
 
DEFINITELY SYLVER2!!! I was just looking at it last night and was in awe of the hard work she is putting into that just to help out the ladies. It is so thorough and informative. I don't think I'd ever have the patience for all of that and that's why my hat goes off to her and all the ladies who take time out of their very busy schedules to do that. Just so nice. :yep:

Ya'll already know her albums: 6 month stretch, Maxiglide & Blowdrying, etc.

I don't even have a "My Settings" option:( when I did the help, it said only premium members can do it...
Oh and Sylver, Kinikakes and SouthernGirlz all have THE BOMB fotki's...
I use Sylver's Scarf method
Kini's conditioner wash method and....
I WILL be using SG'z trim method from now on... damn stylists.

Now if I can only find someone with a method to growing hair 6 inches overnight

Thank you so much for starting this thread, I love the Fotki's with tutorials. Do you know of anyone that shows you how to do the Kinky twists preferably a video?
 
theres a self braiders tips thread that has a site with a tutorial for kinky twists. there's no video, but it's very detailed! preciousjewel started the thread.

You have it, sometimes depending on your window settings, it's hard to see. I am not a premium member.
It's down toward the bottom of the drop down that's exactly to the right of the "FOTKI" wording in the upper left hand corner of the page.
 
I owe a BIG apology to Ra Sylver!! I use her scarf method every week (and it is the only one I use every week).

SOOOOOOOOO SORRY!:look:

I always have my hair diva in mind (and am trying to find the time to check out that salon in LI for a wash and set)! :grin:

Ra's methods rule!

Wanted to add Macherieamour's Blog. She has video tutorials on pre-pooing, wrapping, on blowing out roots after rollerset and my favorite -- the saran wrap treatment. After I did that, my hair was so silky!!

Thanks Dillard. I didn't realize that Macherieamour had made SO many changes to her blog!

I'll add them.
 
Hi, I'd like to see the tutorial on Bantu knots, can someone help?

yes, i couldn't get into southerngirl's albums either. the password in her profile doesn't work, maybe you can pm her or sign her gbook asking for the password?
