Sylvia Rocking the Curls...

My sister Syl writes;

(a la Kanye): Who taught you to put down the flatiron every once in a while?…Nikki taught me.

My routine was pretty simple, and taken straight from your book. lol I shampooed, then detangled using Aussie Moist conditioner. I rinsed that out and used the Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine Leave-in. Finally, I put my hair into 10 sections, if you can consider what I do “sectioning.” I kind of just grab and go. Why 10? Because that’s how many flexi-rods come in a pack and I only bought 1 pack. They’re too expensive. Anyhow, I made it work. Twisted my hair with Herbal Essence Totally Twisted gel. Curled the ends on flexirods, and went to sleep. Woke up the next day, took it down, and ran my fingers through it with the Totally Twisted. I pinned it back, and there you have it.

Nikki taught me well. Nikki taught me well. 😉

    That was actually really funny!

    Niki, Syl, you two are so funny. My daughters don't think they look alike either. My youngest gets mad when people tell her she looks just like her older sister, LOL. But, they DO look alike. Guess they just don't see it themselves.

    Been trying to figure out who you ladies look like–it's your dad (Nik's wedding pictures)

  • KayDanai says:

    Cute.

    P.S. Flexirods @ Sally's about $9.99
    Flexirods @ the neighborhood BBS about $2.99

    I brought one pack at Sally's myself, saw the ones at the BSS for cheaper, and stocked up.

    Beautiful syl! You and your hair. How lucky are you to have Nik as your sister? I'd have her doing my hair every week!

    Your hair is beautiful!

  • skillsgill says:

    Nik and Syl … sorry, butcha do! LOL!! You're not identical, but there is a STRONG sisterly resemblance=). But, I completely understand your response as my sister and I used to get confused for twins, for each other and still get told we look so much alike. And, just as you did, we deny it and look each other like, "What are they looking at??!?!" LOL.

    Beautiful hair Syl! It's definitely great to have the versatility to style straight or curly, especially if you are able to prevent heat damage and can go weeks without putting the flat or curling iron in your hair! I wish! LOL!! Nik, when was the last time you straightened your hair? Is it just something that you have no interest in ever doing again due to your "past life" with the flat iron;-)? I think many of us are tempted if not convinced to straighten just because we want to see the difference and length=).

  • Syl says:

    And sorry ladies, but I'm with Nik. We honestly don't look that much alike. lol 🙂

  • Syl says:

    Thanks for all of the compliments. And yes, I do think that I will be putting down the flat iron more often. I have no intentions of completely turning my back on it, but it's great to have other styling options. 🙂

  • Coily84 says:

    Sorry Nikk but you couldn't deny her as your sister (IF YOU WANTED TO) LOL you two look a lot alike.
    Syl, your hair is gorgeous and apparently it runs in the family cuz I saw your mom's hair and it was pretty as well. This looks great on you. Good job and yes, your sibling with the gorgeous hair taught you well. (SMILE)
