DIY: BANTU KNOT!!

3:35 AM

Happy Sunday My People...
I got so much feed back on the Straw Curls tutorial i did on this blog and i am proud of the results i saw from people both on BBM and on Twitter. I am so glad you all liked it. *Exicited* 
Today, we learning the Bantu Knot !!
I really can't wait to try this on my hair, but for now I have to wait for my front hair to grow more...
I love this look because it so easy to achieve and like the straw curls it requires no heat.

Things Needed
Shea butter (Ori)
Spray gel/Styling Gel
Booby pin
*Start on a washed and conditioned hair
*Apply your Ori or any styling product of yours 
*Part your hair using your hands
*Finally secure with a bobby pin
See the steps below...




 Twist until you get to the last end, finally secure using
 a bobby pin.
 When you are done, you let it dry until the following morning, then you loose it gently. 
The Result




 You can also brush out the curls

You can achieve this look on relaxed hair by ensuring your hair is damp and using a styling gel or setting lotion/foam to hold curls. 

What do you think?

    1. Yes dear you can, i explained it their too. you can do it by ensuring your hair is damp and using a styling gel or setting lotion/foam to hold curls. If possible use a hand dry to hold curls for relaxed hair although not a compulsory.

  23. Hmmm, I suck at hair ooo but I need to learn little things to do on my own and this looks do-able,lol.
    The results look yummy. I want the curls to be really really defined though! Probably should get some of that Ori as I don't have any styling gel...
    Thanks so much for this!!

  26. Gorgeous hairstyles!
    Bantu Knots + My hair = Disaster!! ha ha!
    To get that Bantu knot effect I two strand twist, roll em up with small rollers and apply the Jane Carter Wrap and Roll Solution and air dry. The effect once dry is similar to a bantu knot out.

    Our Natural Hair is very versatile.
