MAKING FAUX LOCS ON MY BLOW DRIED 4C NATURAL HAIR
For the first time in 2 years since my hair has been natural (not textured), my hair was blow dried. That was about 2 weeks ago as shown in this my vlog. Today, my friend came around to make faux locks on my 4C natural blow dried hair.

I've been rocking my blow dried hair for about 2 weeks now like this (snapshots taken by the new music fountain, Slavija-Belgrade)
Just before we started making the hair, I prepared ingredients for lunch and put them all in my crock pot/slow cooker so that as soon we finished we could have lunch.
Watch out for the outcome of the lunch that I prepared in my crock pot in my next blog post!
I see a happy person in the picture. i love your writings and your photography
Oh, thank you so much @yaradua for the commendation and compliments! I try to stay positive and happy most times. From your name, it appears that your are one of us, a Nigerian. It would be interesting for me to know what you love about my writing and photography. Perhaps, that could trigger the writing of another post for the benefit of everyone. My blog posts are far from being perfect, but I strive to work to make them better. Welcome once again to my blog post! Cheers.
Very nice written
Good post
Keep it up
@cryptocharts, thank you. I appreciate that you stopped by. Cheers.
Looks good and looks like you're feeling good!
I've got 4b/4c mix of hair and it never gets much past my shoulders. Faux locs is a style I've considered.
Does it put much tension on your scalp?
What kind of wool did you use? Sheeps wool, acrylic wool (yarn to my American ear).
Oh thanks a lot, @kareemah! Honestly, I'm feeling really good. Quite interesting to know that you've got 4b/4c mix of hair. That your hair never gets much past your shoulders could be due to many factors such as the age of your hair, your hair regimen, genetics, nutrition. hair care products . Please, if you get a chance make faux locs. It has helped my hair growth journey a lot! Yes, the locs put tension on my scalp, but not so much. Regarding the kind of wool I used, I think it's sheep wool, not acrylic. Would have shown you photos of the wool, but we used up all the wool (about 3 large wraps) and I've thrown away the wraps. Not to worry, later today, I would go to the shop where I usually buy the wool (just opposite my house) to buy some more. Then I would take pictures and upload them, so that you can see the type of wool.
Yeah, my hair regimen is sorely lacking.
I may give it a try, though I can't have much pulling on my scalp at all. Gives me headaches.
I'm looking forward to seeing the picture or the wool wraps you used.
@kareemah, please take good care of your hair regimen. It is so important for your hair. I understand the pulling on scalp. It takes 2-4 days for the 'pain' to subside corresponding to the time of new hair growth. Here, a photo of the wool wraps I used
beautiful post @maryfavour. You really look beautiful and happy in the picture and i'm happy for you
