The black woman's burden...

I'm learning to braid Jazzy's hair. It's getting too hot for her to wear it in twists like these that we leave down or put in ponytails:



Here she is with the conditioner bag on. They're free at Wal-mart, LOL.

Here she is with her hair all clean and ready to comb out:

Here she is with her hair detangled and blow dried:

I did it in two rows. The bottom one that night and the top the next morning. I still need to work on making the parts straighter, the braids tighter and braiding a bit faster, but isn't she lovely?

Oh, and yes it's all her hair. I don't believe in extensions or chemical treatments for my little princess. My favorite hair care books are It's All Good Hair and Kinki Kreations.
