if you write it, will they come?

I'm writing words, you are reading them. Hmm, the direction of this blog...I'm not so sure I have one nor a desire for one. I'm gonna ramble; I'm gonna advise; I'm gonna reflect; I'm gonna bullshit. I study psych; I travel by subway and yellows. I succumb to the small talk of the weather. I people watch. I laugh...EVERYDAY. Likes: smart people!! funny people!! sarcasm, music I can dance to, music I can sing with, music that makes me think, music that lights candles ;) playing in the park afterhours [the only way u won't look like a pedophile jkjk (well not really lol)] natural hair and skin care, natgeo, family guy, the colbert report, reading, history, psychology, shoes, vegan food, people watching =) I party now and again, maybe sip on something ;-) Dislikes: celery sans bleu cheese (ranch will suffice), deadlines, smokers, when my metrocard expires =(, arrogance, ppl playing music in public w/o headphones ugh, capitalism. The lists ofcourse could be way longer. Tumbling along

hi there! well my twist outs usually last me about a week. One of the methods that I’ve tried and also like is two strand flat twisting the roots and then just twisting the remainder regularly. Maybe you can try that too. I usually retwist every other night in bigger twists to go to bed and wear a satin bonnet. The overnight maintenance is really key for me. Right now I use a mixture of shea moisture’s curl enhacing smoothie with ecostyler gel. The ecostyler has nice, touchable hold for my twists. Bantu knots are the shizz on wet hair for me. When I try it on dry, it’s…a lil bleh. puffy, just eh and it only lasts me for like 2 days. I use the same products for that style right now. I have become pretty partial to the ecostyler gel mixed with…everything.

This is an old photo of a fresh twist out of mine. The next few days, it’ll just grow and get more voluminous.
