T Shirt Curls Tutorial: My No Heat Go To!

I enjoy the freedom of being completely natural and being able to try and achieve any hairstyle. I was given a tip by a friend on an awesome way to get perfect curls using no heat. A benefit is you can sleep any way you would like with them in. I was skeptical at first given that my hair is very thick but it works. This method can be accomplished by using tshirt scraps. Here is a step by step on how its done.

First, you will need a old tshirt and you can cut a portion off similar to this:

Next you will need to cut scraps from this portion of the tshirt in 3/4 of an inch to 1 inch section like this:

Your strips should be similar to one on the bottom. After you cut the strip you should pull the ends of the strips till they roll together like the strip on the top. I needed 15 strips.

Next you should comb through your hair where it will be manageable.

Then part the hair in half for more control and you are ready to begin rolling.

Section off your first piece and begin at the end by wrapping your end around the strip then just begin rolling your hair up to the root. Then tie the scrap one time through.

                             

Complete the entire head and go to bed. (total duration about 30-45min) SN-I was texting and watching a movie. lol

Finished result. (front and back)

Hope that you liked the tutorial. Leave comments and email your awesome results to kreativekhels@gmail.com for a feature on my blog and instagram (@kreativekhels).

My Torrid Love Affair

I had my first experience going to shop in Torrid this past weekend and I must say that I am completely in love! I had a great experience. Awesome customer service, visually pleasing atmosphere and most important, the affordable quality merchandise. We stumbled upon it looking for comfy flats for Mama and found even more treasures. I had no plans of purchasing but I just couldn't help myself. I always purchase for the season ahead as well as shopping for things I can also wear at the moment. Just call me a multifunctional shopper. I found some adorable army green linen shorts and a set of headbands. I have so many plans for the shorts because linen never goes out of style. I hit the lotto because both items were on clearance and clearance was BOGO free this weekend! STEAL! I also got to use my 10% discount just for signing up to be a Torrid Insider. I am so excited because I will be receiving coupons to shop with and everyone knows that I love coupons. Follow the link below to the website. Happy shopping!

I Am My Hair

You are sitting there with your eyes closed & you can feel the once was cool leather warm up beneath you. Its been a stressful past 2 weeks or even 2 months. You survived a breakup, someone else getting the promotion you worked so hard for, and gaining 13 pounds. You open your eyes and you see a masterpiece. Your trusted stylist/barber has made you feel brand new. That is what a hairstyle/haircut can do for you.

I have always felt like a haircut just removes all the stress that you have been holding onto. It might sound a little silly, but think about it. No, really think about it. You are removing the excess dead hair/weight and lightening your everyday load. I like to think of it like a snake sheds his skin. Interesting, huh?

Coco Chanel said, 

"A woman who cuts her hair is about to change her life."

This can apply for men too. Whether its a career change or getting over heartbreak, a haircut always seems to put a person back to their "center". I did hair professionally for a short time and found that I liked doing my own hair more than others; but I did enjoy making people feel better. A change in hairstyle boosts self confidence, personal image, and physical attraction. Test it out readers. If you have a significant other, try a new style/cut and see if he or she does not notice. It may not be immediate, but they will recognize something is different. For my single readers, take notice of comments at work or when you are out and about. I promise you a 110% success rating (unless your stylist or barber is not so talented & I will not take responsibility for that). That was really for laughs but seriously I won't be the blame. 

It all boils down to hair being an essential part of your personality. It tells what you are going through and what you have been through. Take high stress for example. This can cause shedding, balding, breakage, etc. None of those are good for you. When you are happy and living life like its "Golden" as Jill Scott put it, your body releases good stuff that makes your hair and skin do magic. Go look up endorphins. They play a big part in that process. 

This is not science class though so I will end with this. I love to change my hair. It is what keeps me sane. Every stressful time in my life usually is solved by hair color or a cut. It may not take away all the stress but I always feel a great deal better than before. My next color is mermaid green. I can't wait! But while you are waiting on that picture, here are some of my past haircuts and styles. I couldn't find my mullet, but you better believe I was serving LIFE with it! Hope you enjoyed and let me know how you feel about your hair.
