                                        Bonjour Natural: November 2015

                                        Why bad hair days aren't that bad. We've all had them, right? Those days where your hair doesn't do what you want it to do, or you excitedly prepare it for a style overnight and in the morning it's a disappointing mess. I'm talking bad hair days - and I've had loads since I've been on my journey. But as I get deeper into my journey, my mentality continues to change and my confidence continues to grow, even when I don't feel I'm looking my best. Looking back on my previous heat habits, I cringe in horror ...

                                        Bonjour Natural: Transitioning - the right way this time!

                                        Transitioning - the right way this time! Heat-abused keratin treated hair vs heathy keratin treated hair. The very point of this blog was to document my transition from relaxed to natural hair - and that's exactly what I did. But I transitioned by relying heavily on heat, wearing my hair straight daily, so that unless you were told, you would never have known I was transitioning! Nevertheless, I cut my last relaxed ends off in January 2015 after a year of transitioning. It sounds funny, but I wasn't ment...

                                        The Bunning Challenge: Half way there! Enjoying straight hair for a day. Hey all, it's been a little while since I last posted but really I've had nothing to report - until now. Yesterday marked day 30 of my 60 Day Bunning Challenge! It's been pretty smooth sailing so far apart from the odd few days where I get bored of bunning. But that's what my two heat passes are for. Three days ago I decided to use one my two heat passes and flat ironed my hair - pictured above. Follow my blog with Bloglovin'.

                                        Bonjour Natural: Breakage-free bunning
                                        http://bonjournatural.blogspot.com/2016/01/breakage-free-bunning.html
                                        I'm now in my second week of bunning and it feels great! I'm thankful to those who have openly joined me on my challenge. And also to those lurkers out there. Regularly switch the position of your bun. Whether it's a cute high bun or a chic low 'do, it's important not to place your bun in the same position every day. Consistently bunning in the same spot can put extra stress on the hair in that area, and you might find you develop breakage in that spot. Choose your hairbands wisely. Don't tie too tight!

                                        Curlformers for transitioning hair. I have a new love in my life. They're called Curlformers. They're just flimsy, springy coils of plastic but they know how to make the loveliest ringlets, giving consistent results every time! To be frank, I'm sick of bunning. I'm sick of talking about bunning and I'm pretty sure you're sick of reading about it. I want to have some fun with my hair now, and what better way than to try out some cute heatless styles? So how do they work? Clockwise: With Curlformers in, be...

                                        Stylin' it up for Christmas. Hope you've been having a lovely time these last couple of days. I just thought I'd check in to show you how I wore my hair for Christmas. It definitely wasn't a planned style but I thought it came out surprisingly cute. Begins and it's my aim to use no heat at all, so I thought I would take this opportunity to be bad. After all, Santa's already visited my house (and bought me a hair steamer. say what? The blog post is coming soon! So I can start being good again in 2016.

                                        My Third Keratin Treatment. It's been such a long time since I last posted. I've been so busy with my last year of university, going on holiday and then starting a new job. But now I'm back to blogging, so I thought I'd start with a post about the Brazilian Keratin Treatment (BKT) I received today. I blogged about my first BKT here. My hair has been doing well since and I can now feel it touching the bottom of my neck - a welcomed indicator that it's gaining length! 3rd Keratin Treatment - 11 July 2015.

                                        3 things that helped me transition. I transitioned the unorthodox way (by using heat regularly), so I think my transition may have been a lot easier than usual. Nevertheless, I share with you the top 5 things that helped me transition:. 1 Getting my hair cut regularly. The mug shots for hair:. I've had quite a few hair cuts over the year to maintain my short bob! 2 Deep conditioning 1-2 times a week. See my other relevant posts: Matted New Growth. And Line of Demarcation Breakage. Hair is made up of a pr...
