The French Roll has made a comeback!

The french roll is back!! Gotta love this modern twist. Style created by Tania Hill-Chandler and my naturally wonderful client Nik (who actually thought of this style herself)!

How To Do a Rod Set on Natural Hair

The beautiful rod set. Great for transitioning as well as getting defined curls for your natural hair. Thanks to my naturally wonderful client, Taahira, for being a model for me!

Long Loc braid do'

                                  

Long Loc Styling

My wonderful client came to me this idea. As you can see it is cornrowed in the front and then all of the cornrows are fish braided down the back. The end of the large fish braid is secured with a few knotted locs.

Masterpiece Complete!

   Once dry, undo the flexi-rods & twist using a little bit of softened shea butter or a pomade, such as AVEDA Humectant Pomade on your hands for added shine and moisture.

Tips: Use a satin bonnet at night to trap moisture and help prevent curls from getting ultimate frizz. In morning to 're-activate' curls use a light spritzer (2 parts distilled water, 1 part olive oil, few drops of favorite essential oil) and separate curls with Jane Carter Twist & Lock or Olive Oil.
