As I said yesterday, I'm going to try grey box braids for winter inspired by @katerosebud. I love multitonal hair so I'm going to use a few shades plus it will hopefully help my dark brown hair to blend in as I don't have any natural grey of my own (yet!… https://t.co/0GHyDLG3le

After years of dying her hair, my dear friend @katerosebud is embracing her natural grey colour and it looks sooo good that I'm going to do my next box braids grey in homage! Like the natural hair movement the grey hair movement is freedom, power and wel… https://t.co/yXjDRfmBFV

Kinda mind boggling when you look up close 🙈! Also realised that my braids all come forwards slightly because I do them myself. And considering I don't draw my partings with a comb, they're fairly straight. Hope I'm not messing with anyone's trypopho… https://t.co/5E0GG6w9iY

I'm doing #microbraids this time. But not this micro (and not these poor edges 😱)!! I can't lie though, I would enjoy putting these in (I'm ill, I know) but I would not enjoy taking them out 😱. How thin would you go?! #braidslife https://t.co/Mj8X1UVAyV

Happy #worldafroday "I be a chameleon and wear it bone straight, but it's so much stronger when it's in its natural state, And I'm fine...fine...under cloud nine." ☺️ ☁️ (Love that song... Donnie 'Cloud 9') https://t.co/Q6W8zKvuAD

My #passiontwists blog post is live. Link in bio. I'm about to take them out but they've lasted 5 weeks. Not bad for 4 hours work 😉 #blackhairblogger #passiontwistsuk #protectivestylesfornaturalhair https://t.co/EyiIChUVwC

My #passiontwists video tutorial is now on my YouTube channel 🎥 (link in bio). My own hair is dark brown (no dye) so none of these highlights you can see are my own. It’s a great way to add colour without damage or commitment. All the details of what… https://t.co/YBbOWFSbtK

A #frobackfriday because I always forget #tbt! Love this quote from an article titled ‘What It Means When I Braid My Daughter's Hair’ written by @aliyasking for @elleusa in 2016: “Braiding is often a sacred bonding time and a part of family-building in t… https://t.co/9w3hfBENDY

Never been a fan of twists on me as they have always resembled those old fashioned curtain tie backs 😂 but I’ve jumped on the #passiontwists bandwagon inspired mainly by @missalexjae’s YouTube video and @xolovekailyn (the originator!) of course. I li… https://t.co/Cu8TrJ3Hue

Late to the party but I finally watched @stormzy’s #Glastonbury performance. First black artist to headline the pyramid stage in 20 years? (since @skin_skunkanansie ) What?!! Totally blown away though. It was perfect. It was important.

You learn something new everyday. And sometimes it’s so random. If you check out @saabirahlawrence’s stories today you’ll see she’s discovered the same @umbertogiannini product that I’ve been obsessed with since the start of this year - More Than Moistur… https://t.co/4ygGS0lyeE

Love this. This is totally my experience of braiding too. My mum braiding my hair for hours was time well spent together, chatting and laughing and learning. I don’t have a daughter but my son who is 4 has understood from an early age that his hair is sp… https://t.co/zmE4qbyTl7

Simple single braid and big earrings is one of my favourite styles to wear when my hair is out of plaits. I used @palmersuk super control gel for edges to get this slick look. I like it because it doesn’t go crispy or flaky. I use it on my edges and als… https://t.co/dawuoOA9gw
