okay, for the past week this forum has been realllllyyy boring to me!!! so im deciding to start a new topic that will hopefully make things interesting.

what hair style are u wearing for the summer??

im thinking about going with curly braids,small but not tiny. i just think it will give my hair protection while still allowing my 2 do sumthin with it.im also planning on using NTM hair creme through the summer and Dove moisturizing mist. SO HOW ABOUT U?? what will u do for the summer? everyone's feedback will give others ideas if they are lookin for it. so talk 2 me ladies!

Well I normally keep my natural hair in cornrow because its the easiest option for me in terms of low maintainance and because my hair is so thick and requires plenty of moisture,, but to be honest i need a radical change and feel i could be a tad bit more ambitious when it comes to styling.

I'd really like to do the all hair out thing for this summer, My challenge will be to put my hair in medium sized twists and take them out. Is this called 'twists outs'?

Correcto!

I tried doing the twist out thing, it didnt look too hot, so I wont be trying that again anytime soon.

I like variety so for the summer, I'm gonna wear rod sets, loose braidouts and bantu knots.

I think i will more than likely get braids too. Colorguard season starts up for me during the summer and i doubt id want to fool with my hair. And if i don't get braids i think ill keep doing twists.

Wash n go's and braid outs, thats probably it.  It's too hot to do anything that requires sitting under the hair dryer.  I might try Caruso's too.

I've been doing my homework on yarn twist and I think they are a winner.  Since there is no extra hair involved, it is inexpensive and not harsh on the hair, as long as I keep them moisturized!

I think I might go back in braids for a while. At least for a month.
