Bantu Knot Out (Take 3) 01/04/2010
This is the third or fourth time-this year- that I've tried a bantu knot out. I just plain ol' don't like it. The curls came out the best they ever have, but there's no length. I'd like for styles that take an entire day of air drying to at least retain my length, not give me poodle curls. The twist n curl does it, a straight roller set does it, but this bantu knot out....uggggh. I'm not going to wash it out this time. Like I said the curls came out pretty nice so, I'm going to see how many days I get outta this and if my curls loosen up well. I'll do an update of course. What I used and did: Shampoo: Herbal Essence None of Your Frizzness Rinsing Conditioner: Garnier Fructis Moisture works conditioner Leave In Conditioner: Organix Coconut Milk Conditioner Tool: Denman D4 brush *Finished with my own whipped mango butter infused with essential oils. Shampooed my scalp after about 2 months of no poo. Conditioned and rinsed. Added two blobs of the Organix and detangled with Denman. I put my hair in about 16 two strand twists then twisted those into bantu knots. I covered it with a satin scarf and left it up for about 24 hours. See the results below just after taken down on New Year's Day ![]() CommentsBownGirl 01/06/2010 5:32pm
