My protective style for this week
I have decided to do a bun challenge with myself. So my hair is in a bun this week again. Over it I put a braided bun that I had made with a pack of kanekalon braiding hair. I will put up pictures of it before the week is out, so you can see it.

My Protective Style for the week and my henna treatment last weekend
So,my protective style for this week was surely an experiment. But It worked! I parted my hair in half from ear to ear. I put two cornrows going to the middle of my head in the back. Then I parted the front into 3 equal sections. The two side parts were done in four small cornrows each and in the middle I did two flat twist. After I did all of that. I pinned up all the ends in the middle. It is a very cute style and still looks good. I am confident it will last until Sunday coming...maybe even longer. But i have hand in hair syndrome and will have to break out of that slowly. Until then i will stick to weekly styling.
HENNA TREATMENT
Did another one Sunday, this time I only mixed it with water and pure coconut oil. Amazingly, it worked just as well. My hair was shiny and healthy with a rich color when I was done.
I have just two complaints about henna so far. The first is that it takes sooooooo long to wash it out and then after all of that...everytime I scratch my head there is henna particles under my nails up to this day!!! lol. But, I have to say I still love henna.
