Retwist

So last weekend I managed to wash and retwist and as promised I have pictures not that brilliant but you get the gist.  
So this me prior to washing 
My first wash is with the head and shoulders itchy scalp shampoo feels lovely on the scalp. Then I do 2 washes with the coconut shampoo before the conditioner and then put on a plastic cap. Whilst waiting to deep condition I decided to give myself a facial. I cleansed then scrubbed and I decided to steam my face also. Just boiled the kettle added a few drops of tea tree oil and relaxed with the steam. After 5 minutes or so I didn't want to waste the heat so I rested my forward on the edge of the bowl and the heat just entered my hair and scalp all the way down my neck it was great. I stayed like this for some time till I lost the heat.
After all this steaming I rinsed out the conditioner and got down to retwisting
I like to do my hair early in the day but I didn't that day it was late in the afternoon and I was regretting that decision. I was so fed up of doing my hair by the end of it, just felt like forever but I did it and sat under the dryer.
I think I'm doing an ok job my edges have lots of fluffy parts not sure if they will ever grow long enough to be included. Plus a few at the front are thin from root to tip once dry look and feel better when wet I get a bit concerned. The next day I checked my hair and discovered I didn't retwist just 1 loc not too bad the first time i did i had about 4 not twisted so 1 is ok. Next time I will section my hair and do it properly. I'm using the coconut oil regularly and occasionally the smoothie from Adornment 365. Oddly enough I am going to Adornement tomorrow not for my hair but to be a wax model. It's been generously discounted and it saves me doing it myself should be great there will be no pictures. Ta ra for now
