KINKI ME PRETTY

*WARNING---THIS IS A LONG POST*
How are you all doing? I am sorry for going MIA on you guys,  guess sometimes  life gets  in the way of blogging. From the title i am guessing you know what this post is all about, yes it is about my kinki braids. I would admit that this is the longest  hair do i have ever had on, its over 2months now  and i actually kept it this long because i am trying to transition for my natural hair but now, I am contemplating on not going natural again...fear dey catch me lol. I am scared i might start to cry after i do and probably get frustrated and wear wigs till my hair grows back. I am so indecisive. If you natural and you had this kind of fears too kindly comment below advising me on what you did to conquer your fears.
Okay so moving on to today's post, people keep asking me who packs my hair for me and how i do it and all that, I have explained to countless people so to save myself the stress i told a few people that i would do a post showing some ways i pack my kinki. I hope this helps, I can not make a video so i will try to explain as much as i can.
Product- supreme kinki
packs used- 3 packs
length- using my taperule, 14inches

My hair down

i poured my hair forward

i start to plait my hair forward, i try to make sure it is in the center

you will plait your hair  like so.

you then take the plaited braids to the side like you can see in the picture.

This is what it looks like when you are done.

This what i looked like fully dressed.

 Another packing style:

i loosened the plaited braids a little 

after loosening some parts, i just laid the braids on top each other and i tucked it all in.

I guess this picture explains it all.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another Packing Style: this is explanatory, you just do a high bun in the middle and twist some of the braids round, if you don't like this style feel free to  pack everything high bun.

These are the only pictures i could put up, thanks to my internet but from these styles you can come up with alot of your own unique styles. For instance you could plait your hair forward or backward to the middle and you tuck it in and you do a style with the rest of the braids in front. Let me try to upload a picture.

i plaited this backward and twisted the front part.

This one i plaited it forward

i left some in front and i just laid it on the  plaited braids.

i twisted the front, packed the middle and left the back like we made our hair in secondary school.

This is the one i plaited forward.

 I hope i was able to help a little. Kindly drop your comments below, if you know better styles also let me know if this helped.

Thanks for stopping by......

Cheers.

PRINTS MEETS STONE WASH

Feliz Domingo (translate it if you can).....
I never want my weekends to end but then it has to *sighs*. This post is about the outfit i  wore to meet my King, Lover, Friend....he is my everything and his name is Jesus hehehehehe. Hope you enjoyed your service as much i enjoyed mine? I just designed this ankara jacket and i was so excited to wear it, i paired it with a stone washed jeans i got from Sokoto (yea, i was surprised to find it there too, having searched for it endlessly in Lagos) when i went for my orientation camp and it was amazingly affordable.

 

My friend lolly looking take away lol, her birthday was on the 22nd of January. Happy birthday again my darling friend, you are a blessing to me in more ways than one. Love you dear.

THROW BACK THURSDAY....

Hello people, how are you all doing? I decided to do a throwback on my birthday (2012) because i was not able to blog at that time. As you all know, i am twice lol, i have a partner, i like to refer to her as my BETTER HALF, okay enough of my rumblings, i am a twin, so, it was our birthday on the 14th of December. Errm...did we have any plans? no,zero,nada, nothing at all. WAIT!!! initially we had a plan, we always do lol but nexy me here always end up ruinnnning it* battling eyelashes* not that i do it intentionally but i always have a solid reason.Though, when our friends showed up at our crib, we decided to go have lunch some place quiet,nothing serious at allll.
Moving on, so few of our precious friends and our lovely, lovely, sweet sister Busola made that day extra special. i can not start to explain what each and everyone of them did because i will like to keep some to myself away from the web lol, but we were really honored, mostly by people we expected nothing from and the fact that we had nothing planned*sigh* everyone blew our pretty minds away.

....okay, enough of my rants, let me show you some pictures.

This was what i had.

We actually got 7 cakes.

Us with our sister Busola

P.S Kenny and I surprised ourselves too and i  almost cried when keni's cake was not delivered lol.

We had a fabulous day, don't let me go to the numbers of calls n stuff that we had, that day was just so special, think this was our best birthday after our 5th birthday party.

Thats it...Take Care People.
