Check out the Natural Hair iPhone App: Curls on the Go

We've moved to CurlyNuGrowth.com!

I recently discovered an app by NaturallyCurly.com called "Curls on the Go". The app gives product recommendations, reviews, helps you to locate a hair salon, and features the Frizz Forecast™.

TWA Hairstyle: Mohawk w/ Flexis

We've moved to CurlyNuGrowth.com!

My Client found this cute hairstyle online and wanted something similar to the picture below…

I flat twisted her sides and then set the middle of her hair on Flexi-Rods. The pictures are before the Flexi Rods are plucked out. This style will last about two weeks.
