Bantu Knot Results

Hey guys! I do apologize for the delay of this post! I was unable to video how I took them out but if you would like to see one, please comment below and let me know! So let's get started!!

I slept with a satin bonnet overnight and most of them stayed together!


Next I removed all the bobby pin and took each bantu knot down. I just pulled gently or twisted them in the opposite direction.

Then I carefully separated each twist once. After you separate the first time, you can separate each section to your desired volume or liking. I stopped after separating once.

Afterwards I applied some oil to my hair and fluffed so you didn't see any parts and that's it!! 





They came out really good and hopefully will last for a few days. So again if you would like to see a video on how I take them out, comment below!

I know I didn't hear snow in the weather forecast!!! Ugh!!
Had a really great weekend with my friends!!
Yesterday was so nice, I got to take my son to the park for a bit and he loved it!

    This came out so cute! I have been meaning to try Bantu knots for a while now. Iv'e been wearing weaves throughout the winter and i'm ready to let my natural hair out as the temps start to warm up. How long does this style typically last?

      Thanks for reading and stopping by Nicole! For me, this will last about 4-5 days. I wish my hair was longer to pineapple so it could last longer! Let me know how yours turn out when you try it!!

      I finally got around to trying Bantu knots...it was a failure :(
      I have no idea what I did wrong, it was just a frizzy mess lol!
      Maybe practice makes perfect.

    Beautiful result! Your hair looks amazing! I've tried this once but my hair came out so stringy looking...I may have had too much product in it. I'm gonna take a peek at your video to see how you did it! And yes I would like to see a video on how you took your knots out.

Taking a break.......

On Tuesday I did mention that I had some exciting news to share. I have been working part time for a while and searching like crazy for full time work. I was starting to get a little frustrated but never gave up. Well a full time opportunity came up at my current job and I am now full time status!!! I was just so overjoyed and thankful. I will have a more stable income, I can go back to school and start to make some moves. Then I started to get a little overwhelmed. How was I going to juggle being a full-time working mom, grad student, blogger and balance everything else. It has been a while since I had a full time schedule and based my blogging schedule around my days off during the week. I start my full time hours next week and just need to take a small break away from Naturalle Drea. I really didn't want to because I love this so much but I need to see how to handle everything. I will most likely change my blogging schedule around. Thank you to those who have been encouraging to...

Make Beauty Review*

Happy Friday beauty lovers! I hope you have been enjoying Winter again lol! I hope Mother Nature gets it together soon lol. Today I am bringing you another review powered by BrandBacker! *I was sent these products for testing purposes and this is my opinion after using. Let's get into the reviews! *Powered By BrandBacker* I was pretty excited when I was picked for this campaign. I have tried a Make Beauty eyeshadow before and loved it. Honestly, I was expecting the samples to be a little bigger. I was a little disappointed in the lipstick sample, it was hard to use. It kept breaking when I was trying to apply it. Make Beauty is a very new company to me that I was introduced to through Birchbox.  They have just about everything from eyeshadows to contour kits. They also have a line for skincare as well. Alabaster Eyeshadow This shadow on the Make Beauty site is described as a soft eggshell with peach undertones. This shadow is a matte and can be used as a brow ...

No Buy is Officially Over!!

Yay!! I survived 2 months without a single makeup purchase!! I am so proud of myself and knew I had the will power to do it!! It really helped me staying out of Sephora, Ulta and Mac, the usual places that get me in trouble lol! When I went into Target or Walmart, I wouldn't even go near the makeup section. Funny thing is, I haven't run to the store yet to purchase anything on my wish list yet but I will soon. You can see what is on my wish list here.  After organizing my makeup, I realized I have a lot of products that I don't use and need to try out soon. I'm going to try to really shop my stash before running out and buying something new. Maybe next time, I will go for a 3 month no buy!! Have you successfully completed a no buy? What is currently on your wish list? Comment below and let me know!! ~** Drea Notes**~ We went to the beach today and I'm so glad we did! It was such a fun day with the family!! I'm trying to get back to working out lol!  ...
