Question for fellow black brides Re: hair plans

I still like it. You take care of it and thats whats important! I wish I could take care of mine. I just ignore it most of the time and now my head is like -"oh no what in the world are you doing?" It never gets attention but I better start working with it now so I can look half decent on my wedding day,
My tracks are showing because my hair is stringy right after I flat iron it.
Im def gonna get it cut a bit. I feel like a hooker. But Im gonna work them for my BD photos. lol
Now I think I might just put hot rollers in it for the wedding and stick a flower in it. lol
Here is me before


Look at me with somebody else' hair in my head



Girl that stuff is HEAVY

Woman, you didn't need tracks in the first place...you are silly. It looks really good though. How much did you pay? Okay, I am going to post a pic of a similar hairstly that I tried on myself and the makeup I think I am going to do... Here it goes, gimme a few mins.

You are gorgeous BTW. So many beautiful womens on here...lol

I paid too damn much! I wont tell FI. I told my friend and she said that it was too expensive. Lets just say it was over 200 and under 350...Yeah go right ahead - Its alot of hair and I dont think I can wear it all. Theres no place to clip them on my head - I thought I had a big head...apparently not as much as I expected....
I havent figured out the make up. I think I am going to go with what I usually wear when I go somewhere and add some eyelashes and blush.

Aww, thanks... I am so praying that I will look "pure" (he he he- I havent been pure for over a decade LMAO) on my wedding day. I have never been the beauty girlie type but I guess on your wedding day you want to be the best. Not to glam but not too plain. Ya know? I think the hair took it way over the top. So I better tone the makeup down. Where is your hair photo btw?

Okeay here are a few pics of the kind of hairstyle I want. This is my hair straightened:

Now imagine the above hairstyle with these type of curls in the back...:

The makeup that I am more than likely going to do:

Postings and looking at threads. Play a few games when you are bored in the Arcade. You just go into the Plaza Menu and start banking your points. I initially didnt bank mine until I had a couple thousand points. I have no clue how I made senior member. I dont post quite as much as everyone else. Sometimes I am just not in the mood.
OMG I just noticed your post... Let me go and see!

HOW IN THE HECK DID YOU APPLY THAT SHADOW? I LOVE IT! WHAT COLORS DID YOU USE. I REALLY DONT KNOW HOW TO DO THAT... I keep buying the same boring browns.
How did you do your bangs! I LOVE YOUR BANGS! I have been wanting to achieve a bang like that.
I like it straighten! I think you should add a little curl to the back of it... not to much. Maybe like 2- 3 twist with the curling iron all over the back

I must say that brows are sooo important. I love the shape of yours. dont tell me you do them yourself?
Do you have eyelashes in? I think you have such beautiful eyes! You should play them up with long lashes... youll be the blushing bride!!!! So so pretty!!!

this is where i am looking for hair styles..

Aw thanks hunny. I totally agree with keeping the hair straight and just putting a few curls in. I usually start curling my hair with all the curls and then when I wrap it at night, it gets flatter... I will curl my hair the night before and then style it like that the day of and add the curls in. With the bangs (and with all of my hair) I use the ceramic Chi... My hair had broke off some years ago and they just developed into some long bangs and it's funny you say that, because after I took that picture I cut them a little more to even them out. I just curl pieces to the side and feather them.

 

I don't know what thread it was, but I was telling twelve_piece about how I use the procudts I use and which ones I use. I can give you those specific colors in the above pics if you want I was going to do a step by step picture tutorial for whoever needs it if you want You should experiment with colors, your skin would look good with colors.

 

My eyebrows I get waxed at the nail shop, but the trick I use is in the makeup. I wil def use eye lashes, but at that time I didn't feel like putting any on.

 

But thank you for making me blush.

That's pretty...those styles...
