HAVANA TWISTS

HAVANA TWISTS
I remember when these came out, everyone was wearing them.  I even saw a post with a picture of the style, and the question was asked what were they?  Also stating that they were not Senegalese Twists or was Afro Kinky Hair used. 

 Style By: Maria Thompson
Fort Lauderdale Natural Hair Stylist

I left a comment asking her to bring the hair used and I would see if I  could replicate the style.  She came over I did a demo on my mannequin, and to her astonishment she said "its exactly the same!"  I said yes, that's because its a Senegalese Twist using Afro Kinky Hair, the same hair I have over there on the stand!!

You see, Havanna Twists is just the name of the style, Senegalese Twists is the name of the technique.  Afro Kinky Hair, Marley Hair, Kinky Hair, etc can be used for the style.

Highlights From The World Natural Hair Show NYC 2016

Talk about an exciting two day event.  Fun packed with Classes, Vendors, Consumers and Stylists.  The hustle and bustle of everyone meeting and greeting, sampling products, trying on clothes and the entertainment. Yes it was an awesome weekend.  If you have never been to a Natural Hair Show, I strongly recommend you attend one. Make sure to not only walk the floor but to sit in on some of the classes.
