Hola chicas!

This is my version of a braid-n-curl, I used Giovanni Direct Leave-in diluted with water and a little Aloe gel then applied Miss Jessies Quick Curls. Honestly, I just came back from the beauty supply after buying some weave. I thought I wanted to give “Luscious” a break, but she’s looking too good to put away. Something tells me I might even have 2nd day hair….I’ll save the weave for when it’s colder.

It will be 1 year since I big chopped.. & loving every step of the way 😉
For the fall winter, I decided to do a protective cornrow style. I adore this style since it’s low maintenance. I have cornrows on both sides with kinky twists in the center. The twists are tucked in a roll which has a coif at the top.
I LOVE THE CURLY NIKKI BLOG!

A beautiful summer day at the church cookout. As a result of a mix of laziness and curiosity, I was rocking a day 5 twist-out. BTW later that evening at cookout#2, I met my Prince Charming!!!lol

I was last featured on CN as a current transitioner but now I’m 3 months post BC and LOVING it! I was going on a date and decided to try a puff on 6 day old hair.

I am headed out to an all black affair for Tennessee State University’s Homecoming celebration. This hairstyle was created by mistake; I wanted to do a fro’hawk, but ended up with a sidehawk…the flower was a decoration on my meal during dinner and I decided to stick it in my head.
Alison
This is me trying a new but simple hair style: twist-out bangs with the rest of my twisted hair in a ponytail and adorned with scarf and shades. I really like it, even though a co-worker told me she hated it.

Thank you to the sista who left the anonymous comment about my hair.
The sides where cornrowed as displayed in the pic.The middle was all two strand kinky twists. My stylist, Thema combined the ends of about 2 cornrows in a single two-strand twist. So about 10 twists total on each side.. Then rolled all the single two-strand twists into a roll as you see. It took 3 hours total – you may not be able to do it yourself.. but explain it to a braider.
If you are in the NYC area – check out www.myspace/com/naturaledgez – Contact Thema there if interested. Tell her you saw me on here.

Thank you Anonymous's and Renee!!
all i did was use a denman brush and eco gel on sunday. wore it as is and separated the bigger curls with coconut oil throughout the week so then by the next weekend it was big! Pulled it in a puff and smoothed the the edges with more eco. O! and i two strand twisted the bangs!
LMBO!!! Y'all are too funny!
Thats suppose to be I'm gonna pop you with my little fist ..lol… towards the end I misprinted that part..
Baby G expression is like you got one more time to say something and I'm gonna pop you with you little fist..lol….
Jules your hair came out gorgeous, you must relate the technique for this style.
Keonia now those curls along with the blonde hair on your skin is so pretty. I really like the cut and style.
Mary that puff is looking extra shiny and thick, its grown out so much.
Sharon all of that pretty hair, and you were going to weave it.. "no"..lol… just slap on a wig..lol… The braid n curl came out really good, I personally haven't tried that one, just mainly twists/twist outs..
But everyone on here looks amazing and keep up the good work with all of your hairstyles.
I would love to hear how Mary got her look!

To 9:44am, This is Sharon trust me it took practice to get this twist n curl right. You'll get just keep coming back to CurlyNikki. I need to see if this is a fluck cause I havent tried it since I posted this pick. Maybe I will today with Curls Souffle or Whipped Cream sealed with Miss Jessies Quick Curls. MJ QC makes my hair dry a little quicker (excuse the pun).
LOL! Y'all are too much! Thanks for the Baby G compliments… the little diva is rolling over now and sitting up without support! Her getting so big 😉
Baby G: "What'chu talkin' 'bout Willis?" (RIP Gary Coleman)
The ladies are truly fierce. I so wish that my twist out, braid out, "outs" in general, mimicked these ladies. one can wish…………
That you so much for posting the pics of Gia – she is such a doll! 🙂
Everybody looks great.
"So let me get this straight," says Baby G. "You say you styled that super flyy twistout with Crisco and a dash of tobasco? Who knew??"
Baby Gia looks like she's saying, "WHAT YOU SAY?".
I missed seeing her last week and was having Baby G withdrawals. LOL. She's so adorable Nikki and growing like a weed. And as always, the girls are looking indeed "fierce on friday". Thanks for all you do.
