Protective Styling: Braided/Twisted Updo

After my terrible weave experience I decided to keep my style low maintenance and scalp accessible.  I went back to my braider and had her cornrow one side of my hair over with a little bit of hair added, the type used for kinky twist, so that that could last longer. The other side was left loose so that I could style it as I pleased. For a few days it was twisted and I really loved the look. 



To achieve the pinned up look all you need are long straight hair pins and a creative eye. I didn't really do anything special. I criss crossed the twists over one another in the back and rolled the top twist under each other in the front.  I used Oyin Hand Made's shine and define as my styling aide.  Voila! Simplicity and beauty at the same time. How did you wear your hair this weekend?

xoxo,
Alex
