I took down my twists for a twist-out on Friday, feeling quite guilty about leaving in the protective style for only 3 days. My hair felt awesomely soft, albeit a bit dry. I feel like I should have moisturised better when I did them on Tuesday - I'm still looking for the perfect moisturiser. I think I feel a mixing session coming on ... I just thought of the perfect ingredient!

Travels and Flax-Aloe Gel
I have been MIA for the past two weeks due to to a hastily scheduled business trip to the UK. While there, my schedule was hectic, and I didn't have the mental space to post. I had a good time, the weather (mostly) co-operated, and I got a great insight on how my hair functions in its stretched state.
Since I did not want to put my hair in twists, I spent the two weeks in various types of messy buns. I would moisturise and braid my hair at night, and in the morning just put it all up into a medium-sized satin scrunchie, making sure to tuck all my ends underneath. It really worked for me, especially since I ensured that I varied the placement of the buns so as not to stress my hair too much: low bun, high bun, side bun, rinse and repeat.
