The Look That Went Viral

Okay…maybe semi viral. Either way this week has been pretty amazing for TJLuvsBeingNatural. I’m so excited about how many different people I’ve inspired this week with my styles. I’ve gotten somewhere around 500 new Instagram followers, 100 new Facebook followers and about 100 new followers for my YouTube channel that I recently started back up. All of this awesomeness started on Monday with this look and picture.

I called this hair of the day 3 Chunky Tucked Twists. Everyone just seemed to really like it. It was featured on several different natural hair pages was shared several times on Facebook and was featured in Good Hair Magazines blog article “7 Stunning Lady Fades”. The last time I checked there were 15K views on Facebook and over 500K on Instagram I’m sure. I so love inspiring people ❤

Needless to say I'll probably end up doing a tutorial for this look this weekend.

This Week’s Best – Mini Twists

Hello beauties!

I hope you all had a great Saturday. Today I wanted to show you all how I styled my mini twists this week. Although my twists were very defiant and wanted to do what they wanted pretty much every day, I still had a lot of fun playing with different looks.

So let’s take a look at each style!

If have to say that the best of the week for me was Tuesday’s look. I loved the shape of this style. I had a bit of an edgy look going on that day and it just all came together nicely in my opinion. What’s your favorite?

So, this week’s best according to Instagram likes is Monday hair. I however think that the shape from Friday’s hair was amazing! Although I adored my faux bob from Tuesday the Friday Twist Out Roll & Tuck is my vote for this week’s best. Which look is your favorite?

Twist Out Roll & Tuck

Hi beauties!

Just wanted to give some deets about today’s hair. Absolutely loving this look.

I flat twisted my hair in 5 chunky sections using Cantu’s Curl Defining Creme.

Then, I pulled the twists into a ponytail in the front and went to sleep with with my satin bonnet.

In the morning I unravelled the twists, pulled all of the hair to the left side, rolled and tucked the hair and secured with bobby pins. Thats it!
