'Round The Head' Flat Twists | Protective Style

Hey, curly mamas! Today, I will be demonstrating how I did a very simple protective style in Symari's hair. It was simple because I had just washed and conditioned her hair, and also detangled it while styling. I'm all about my simplicity these days. My hands are very full right now. All the time. lol
I hope that you guys know how to flat twist because you can do so many cute styles doing so. It's the best alternative to cornbraiding, if you'd rather not learn how to do that. I love flat twisting. So much quicker and there's also 2 ways of going about it.

I hope that you guys enjoy the video and think of your own creative ways to do long term styles for your kids.  Follow us on Instagram for DAILY posts on hair, health, & homeschooling! :)

How to Painlessly Remove LINT!

Hey curlies! I created a video for you guys showing how I remove lint from my kid's hair. It's pretty easy and self explanatory, but here it is.

My kids don't know how to keep their heads off the floor, even with me constantly telling them. But even so, they still get a ton of lint. I went through years of trying to wash lint out by simply shampooing, but it never really occurred to me to just pick it out before washing. Doing this on wet hair is NOT fun because the lint sticks to the wet hair and makes it harder to come out. On dry hair, it comes out with a breeze while using a comb.

No tears come out of this, and now when the kid's hair is full of lint from the indentation where their hair ties are, I just use a small comb and comb it out. No problems! Hope you guys enjoyed this.
How do you get lint out of your child's hair? Do you use a brush instead? Comment below! Thanks for reading and watching! Subscribe for more!

Kid's Hair Updates! August 2016

Hey curlies! I apologize again for the lack of blog posts. I'm still very pregnant right now; just hit 38 weeks! We've been super busy doing a million errands, taking library trips with the kiddos, and overall, getting ready for the baby. You know how that is if you have multiple kids.
Plus, I've been preparing for the new 'school year' as far as homeschooling, organizing their schoolwork, and planning out what they're going to be learning in their new grades. A lot of things are happening with us at the same time, and it's overwhelming getting everything done while finding time to edit videos!
As far as the kid's hair, I have been trying to maintain protective styles on them for the last two weeks, and for the most part, Jamian is okay now. I gave him a much needed undercut and washed and retwisted his locs. They've been pinned up and out of his face for now.

Symari's blown out hair has served me well! It actually lasts a long time, with way less flyaways and WAY less tangles. It's still soft now after almost 3 weeks, although it needs to be washed. If I had the energy to blow dry it again just to hold me through the remainder of the pregnancy, I sure would because I would barely have to touch her hair. However, Syriah's is more of a concern in that area. Hers has been neglected as usual because it takes the most time and work. I want to blow dry hers also, but it's been mega hot lately. Our air condition at home isn't quite up to par the way it should be, I'd have no problem of it were. Blah. lol

Jalani's little type 4 curls have been easy. Wash and go fro or wash and go mohawks for him or a simple ponytail.

He looks adorable in everything, although he hates getting his hair done on days that aren't wash day.
