You got a great list! What are the Senegalese twists? It has been appx. 3 months since my last perm it is getting a little easier. I was doing a retouch every month, so this is definitely an adjustment. I want to dye my hair, do you think i should wait until all the perm is gone? Let me know what you think. Thanks, ps keep up the good work.
Hi Angelica: Thanks for the compliment. The kinky twists and Senegalese twists are pretty similar. In my opinion, the Senegalese twists have a "smoother" look.
How long do you want your transition to be? Have you colored your hair in the past? If you're not sure if you hair can take the double chemical process (dyed hair and relaxed hair) it's better to be safe than sorry. You do not want to experience breakage or damage while you are transitioning to natural hair.
