Holiday

I have been MIA for the last 2 weeks, as I was on holiday in Malawi for my brother’s wedding! It was amazing! Food, dancing and family would do it again!
For my hair I used direct heat twice #yikes!
For my sister in law’s bridal shower (week before wedding) I flat ironed my hair, my relatives were all gasping about my length and asking what I have been doing

Throughout the rest of the week, I had it down

For the wedding I went to the salon, armed with my hair oil, pre-pooed hair and wide tooth comb and steamed and rolled steam my hair, and then wrapped it for the wedding, it was a bit of a mess for the church in the morning, but worked something out

At church service for wedding with the other half

For the evening do, I flat ironed it. (Believe it or not I have no selfie of me at the evening reception :( ), new goal take more pictures!

For my engagement dinner (get to know the family dinner) below had a braid out

Me, the other half James and my younger sister Angie.

After that I rocked a side bun, the pictures don’t do it justice, but I think it was cute ( with fiancé nephew)

Then on Thursday last week, I washed my hair and blow dried it and I had box braids installed, as I used a protein treatment just 4 days prior to getting my braids installed I did not do another protein treatment.
So this is me for the next 10 weeks, got my hair done for £13.

Box braids, in mum's kitchen making cookies apparently my cookies are the best

That was pretty much me over the holidays. 

Mum's wedding hair was a mini afro
