Achieving the Perfect Bantu Knot
For me achieving the perfect Bantu Knot is really simple. I spend very little time on my hair
when it comes to style. I find as my hair gets longer I want simple, easy to do, cute styles.
Over the summer I achieve the perfect bantu knot style. I absolutely loved it and the colour
was clip-in extensions I use to achieve this look.
Remember to enjoy every moment of your hair, relax or natural
Products you will need:
Wide tooth comb
coconut oil
leave in conditioner ( I use Giovanni leave-in conditioner)
Black castor oil
water/aloe vera gel
edge control (optional for your edges to stay down)
Steps:
1) Make sure your hair is detangled properly and clean
2) Apply your leave in conditioner, oils (jojoba oil, coconut oil)
3) Comb the product through your hair or use your fingers to rake it through
4) Twist your hair as you would doing two strand twist and wrap the hair around itself until you
get a small ball. or bantu knot. Many choose to just gather the hair and twist it until you achieve
the bantu knot. It reallydepends on what look you are going for and definition. I wanted alot of
definition so I did two strand twist my hair first
5) To add the extension sew clips (you can get these from any hair store) on to your extension.
I only added about four small pieces to add some dimension and colour to my end result.
6) If you choose to use clip-ins remember to also do Bantu Knots on them as well
I will post a video on this style. I probably wont be doing this style anytime soon.
Here is a great video detailing each step...I love these two ladies...Enjoy
As always thanks for stopping by and come back soon!
P.S I HOPE ALL MY AMERICAN FOLLOWERS HAD AN AMAZING HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

STYLE FRIDAYS: OFFICIALLY SAYING GOODBYE TO SUMMER, HELLO FALL, GO AWAY WINTER...
Hey guys I know it's been a very long time since I have done a style post but this summer I had the most amazing time really playing around with style. Now that fall is here, I want to remain sexy, classy and most importantly warm.
I only wish I had taken lots of pics, I cant wait to get a new camera, anticipating the wait to much and the excitement is to much. It may not seem like I like to take pictures but you can rest assure I will have as many if not the most random shots I can whip up.
Before I go off track one of my favourites all times this season are riding boots. I couldnt be more in love with them and I love the versatility I see as fall has rolled around. I favourite has to be one of the most inexpensive from aldo post below
I love the detailing for this boots down from 250$ to 125$ they were even having a 30% off sale yesterday. Needless to say these are fab. There are so many other options @ aldo http://www.aldoshoes.com/
This bag is now only 27.99$ I can't decided on which colour to get. I want the black but I had the rose gold detailing on the black. So I am pushed to get the brown.
This bag is one I fell in love with not so much the colour but I'm sure I can do lots with it, but I wont purchase it is it now at aldo for 27.99$
Lastly Asos....Oh I love this store...
More Favourites......
26,84$
My last favourite for right now is Ecote Double slit Maxi skirt....unfortunately you have to Click Here to see the skirt I have been admiring for months now. I wont be able to wear it until next summer but I can't wait. It is actually priced right now for 49$ regularly 69$.
