Twist and shout

We are still in the ongoing hair debacle.

It's taken so long for Jax to grow out his hair that I desperately want to try to make it work with some sort of style!

This was our most recent style idea.

Hair twists.

After watching many YouTube videos on the procedure, I had it down packed!!!!

Or so I thought...........

ARGH!!!!  

SCREAM!!!!!!!

SHOUT!!!!

SWEAR WORDS!!!!!

We started with a good scalp massage, hair washing and deep conditioning.

Then, as per YouTube, I parted the hair and started applying curl gel to each little strand.

A half hour into it, and I could see that this was not really looking quite like the YouTube examples.  But we are this far into it....can't stop now!!!

At the hour and 15 mark, I was halfway through the process with the results starting to look like he should be on Toddlers and Tiaras with his princess locks.

His hair has a good nap around the edges that twist up the way fro hair should.  But the middle part of his head has a different texture and wave.

A little over two hours, and this was the end result.

Nothing like I had planned, and a bit disappointing.

I still dried it and crossed my fingers that by morning it would miraculously look totally awesome!!!

NOPE!!!

It looked like shit.

A head of  nappie and un-nappie shit.

Any ideas of what style we should try next??????
