October Hairdates: Vatika Oil + LOC

What is the current length of your hair?

When wet, the back of my hair reaches my shoulders. My sides are still growing at snail speed. :/ Patience, patience. I hate the mullet look (see 2nd pic) it gives me, so if I wear my hair out, I usually pin my sides back. I threw in a pic of my hair from January (Transition chop) - I've come along way without even realizing it!

Multi-Bunning

Previously, I posted on maintaining your styles by wearing multi-puffs/pineapples at night. This was especially recommended for short - medium lengthed curlies. Since, I wore my hair out in a puff yesterday. Last night, I decided to try multi-bunning. I divided my hair in 3 sections and created a bun for each section, being sure to fold my ends under the hair. I secured the bun with a hair tie and wrapped my hair as usual. In the morning, I found my ends were moisturized and smooth. Which is not always the case when I do multi-puffs or pineapples, as I find my ends rub against my satin scarf too much. Tucking the ends under the hair prevented this and kept them moisturized.
