Up, Up....and To the Left, To The Left :) lol

Hey Ya'll!! :)

First & foremost, i'd like to let you all know that I tried time and time again to figure out a cool name for this post & theeeeen....I gave up! lol
Anyway, I did this style on my hair a few months back and it has been one of my favorite styles ever since!!! ^_^
I love it mostly because my hair is off my neck!! During the summer months, wearing my hair down can leave me with a massive sweaty neck (gross, I know), but it's the truth.



To achieve "Up, Up, & To The Left", here's what I used:
**Shea Moisture's Curl Enhancing Smoothie and 6 bobby pins**

YEP, THAT'S IT!!

I have always liked the way my hair look when it's to the left, so that's why I chose that particular side. There's no right or wrong with this hairstyle, so make sure to put it on the side that suits YOU.
  • I took about, 2 quarter sized amounts, worth of the curl enchancing smoothie and fingercombed throughout my WHOLE HEAD. (Make sure to apply whatever product you choose to the entire head. No one wants to be left with random dry spots throughout their hair...lol)
  • Then, I brushed down the right side of my hair and secured the hair fairly close to the crown of my head using 2 bobby pins.
  • After assuring myself that the right side was tight and secured to my liking, I began to brush up the back of my hair. After smoothing out the bumps, I did a fairly small french roll to give it the "stick out" appearance. I secured the hair again using 2 bobby pins.
  • Next, after the right side and back were completed, I brushed a small amount of hair over my left ear to lessen the amount of hair that would remain out in the front. I then secured the small amount of hair in the middle of my head using 2 bobby pins, just as I did the right side and back!!
and....Voila!! There you have it, the "Up, Up, & To The Left....To The Left" :)

After saying the name of this post numerous times, I couldn't help but to think of Beyonce's song Irreplaceable...So I decided to leave you all with the song in your head too!! LOL


Until next time.....Stay natural & beautiful!!
