Over the weekend I pulled up my sleeves and my got my hands dirty working in this thick fro of mines. I got all fancy and created a homemade avacado deep conditioner which I learned about through my trusty hair manual, Curly Girl: The Handbook. While my creative juices were following I decided to take a stab at trying a twist out. (Sidenote: I've done twistouts in the past and they have always come out looking like the devil.) To my surprise I managed to pull off a funky (in a good way) twistout that I actually liked. Click inside to see how you can create a homemade avocado hair recipe of your own.
