My hair evolves, as the week progresses (based on the weather).

One of the great things about having nappy hair is you can laugh at the rain. That’s a good thing for me, considering it rained a lot last week. I wear my hair in a braid-out (I set my wet hair by braiding it with a gel, and loosening the braids after my hair dries). My hair holds a braid set very well — so well that even when the humidity is high, you’ll still see texture. It turns into a very chunky, textured ‘fro.

So, as it evolves, I adapt and change my style. When it grows puffy, I put it up in a puff. I take it down at night, apply a little QB Amla and Olive Heavy Cream, and tie it up with a silk scarf. The next day, I fluff it up and put it back up, in a puff. It’s so easy and stylish. I get so many compliments, and I’m amazed because folks have no idea how simple it is to do.
