Flat Twist Out on Natural 4C Hair

This quick and easy go to style was each to achieve.  All I used was Mixed Chicks leave-in conditioner and some Olive Oil.  My hands and a wide tooth comb was all I need to get the shape I liked.   To see the flatwist pattern I used click on my Youtube video.

TWIST OUT ON SHORT NATURAL HAIR

Products used: Tresemme Naturals Conditioner, Coconut Oil, Mixed Chicks Leave In Conditioner

This is an easy style to do for short natural hair.  It best if your hair is completely dry before taking your twists out.  This will also give you the best volume! If you have type 4 (a, b, c) this should work for you. But remember the best products to use are the ones YOUR hair responds to.  Have fun with your hair.  See the video below for how to achieve this style.

Teyonah Parris Inspired Makeup & Natural Hair





Can I just say how much I love Teyona Pariss?  Every time I see a photo of her on the red carpet her style is impeccable.  My new natural hair and style idol. She's gorgeous talented and smart!  It's always good to see black women in the media who are not of the Housewives reality.  Call me a hater but there is nothing that is more grating to the nerves than loud women who are menatally stuck in middles school putting on a show for the camera's.  I get that reality tv is scripted and supposed to be over the top but it's still annyoing. Anyway at least we have the Teyonah Parrises and the Kerry Washingtons to balance out the "ratchet" behaviour.
