Since my roller set failed, I decided to try bantu knots on them. I put my hair in 16 bantu knots. I 2 strand twist each knot and used an ouchless rubber band for extra hold on each knot. I used Doris New York Olive Oil Cream on each knot in hopes of it providing some definition.

The next morning some of the knots had unraveled, leaving sections uncurled.

I used my curling wand to fix those sections since I did not have time to reset them on bantu knots.

Since I was going to work I pinned all may hair up and then let it loose when I went out after work.

| pinned up for work |
Since it was looking a little crazy when I let my hair down, I smoothed my hair over to one side and held it in place with bobby pins.

This style actually made it through the night.
 |
| seemed to hold up well in the humid bar...and my bestie is natural too! |
When I got home I put my hair in 5 bantu knots with no product.
 |
| hoping for 2nd day hair |
When I unraveled the 5 knots, I actually liked my hair better than the day before.
 |
| day 2: unraveled bantu knots |
 |
| day 2: fluffed out |
Too bad I had to go to work where I have to wear a hat with my hair pulled back.
 |
day 2: after work
|
That night I put my hair in 5 bantu knots again. I wasn't really concerned about how my hair would come out though since I knew I would have to wear a hat again at work. But I took pix for you all anyways :)

day 3: before work
(excuse the mean mug...i wasnt feeling well) |
 |
| day 3: after work |

@кcℓ (n_n) Girl, i got those in the dollar section at Target. But you should be able to find them other places as well, I cant remember the other places I bought them from in the past.
Thanks Chellez! I'll check out Target since I have this gift card I've been itching to use for a year lol. I'll purchase that and Cara B Natural. ^__^
I LOVE this post! girl I've gotta do some of those things with MY hair! WOW! holla!
@Jazz Thank you. I visited your blog and you have beautiful hair, so Im sure this style will turn out great on you!
I am curious to find out what blog platform you're working with? I'm experiencing
some small security problems with my latest blog and I would like to find something more safeguarded.
Do you have any solutions?
