Hey all
Happy New year! I am working on finishing African Hair threading on my hair and boy is it a doozy. I am only 1/4 finished but as soon as I am done, I'll share photos and a tutorial if anyone else is brave enough. Lol I'm going to try to keep them in for a month.....or 2.

UPDATE!
sooo... today I applied my sulfur mix again. I also baggied and took my daily vitamins. I haven't been following my weekly calender perfectly because I still have to buy that cayenne powder. I did a little search and destroying, too, because my ends have been feeling dry. even after I baggy them, they only stay moisturized temporarily. I've been doing porosity treatments and moisture deep conditioners, so I think it's product build-up or/and lack of protein. but I don't feel like washing my whole head, so I'm going to try to just wash my ends with castille soap, do a little protein treatment, deep condition over night, than do a final acv rinse. but just my ends.

I finally completed African hair threading, yay me.  I actually made a main post on it with video enclosed ( African Threaded Updo ) but I'll post the video link here as well. http://youtu.be/c67nHDvMs_k since the photos don't pick up the thread the way video does.
On to the photos anyway and as you can see by my expression in the first photo that I was quite content with my handiwork.
I plan on keeping them for....8 weeks so help me!
