Creating Multiple Rolls


Today, I'm wearing the same style but with 2 additional rolls (and a hat!)  You can really change the look by adding more or sticking to very few.

I used the same products (leave in and coconut oil) and did the usual front section roll and then took a chunk of hair from my right side and separated it into two sections. Following the same steps from the previous post, I created one roll and then another one below it and somewhat towards the back of my head.


So now, you can see 3 rolls and my simple low bun. If you add a hat, you'll complete the look! Rolls done on natural hair won't look like the ones you see when you do a Google search. There are too many coils and each of our strands of hair kinda has a mind of it's own, don't you agree? But not to worry, this is just the nature of naturally kinky, curly hair. Work with it, not against it and you'll be far better off!

Enjoy and see ya soon!

    I love the extra dimension of awesome way highly textured hair adds to styles that were already awesome to begin with it. Out hair is a wonderful thing.
