1 Month (just about)

I got a bit eager, so I just finished my first retightening. I did it over 3 days i started at the front then decided to go from the back and move forward. My hair was so frizzy I couldn't wait to get my latch hook in there. At least I have the hang of it now! Here are pics of my hair now (2 days after finishing the retightening, and a few rinses lol)...

Latchin'

I got a bit annoyed with a couple of my plaits coming undone so I thought I would have a go at latching the damn things. Only problem is I haven't brought a latch-hook yet, so I thought I would try a paperclip.

I unbent it and then made it into a loop shape. And you know what it worked just fine! I'm not sure that I will even buy a latch hook now considering i have like 200 paperclips!













Here is a pic of the lacthing i did, just the bottom row and it turned out nicely!











I then decided to take it on step further and see if I could latch my relaxed ends. I put I tiny knot at the end of my hair and latched until i got to the plait














Latched relaxed end of plait.

Well there's def no going back now!
