Bantu Knot Hairstyle For Heat Free Curls on Texlaxed Hair

6 Comments

 I decided to try my first bantu knot set for church today. I wanted curls but I didn’t want to put anymore heat in my hair since I just flat ironed on Thurs. I oiled and massage my scalp with Vatika Oil. Then I lightly oiled the length and ends with Vatika. Before twisting into knots I put a little Afroveda Hemp Seed Lock, Twist, and Roll Butter. I love that stuff!
 
I have an older jar and I’m not sure if the new one has a different scent. That is the only thing I don’t like about the Hemp Butter. However, the way my knots, twistouts, and braidouts look when I use it, I can deal with the smell. LOL! It reminds my of pancake syrup. Anywho, the picture below is my hair in the knot and the knots once I took them down.

I will admit I did not like the results of my first bantu know out. I have had people compliment the result, but this just wasn’t the look I was going for in the end. I will give it another try using smaller knots and see if that works better for me.

I have attempted bantu knots again. Check out my latest bantu knot post.

Have you tried bantu knots? How did they turn out? Are they one of your go-to styles?

    i've always wondered how the bantu knots looked. I been trying my hand at having thicker hair and the waves from bantu knots i hear are delicious. I hope all your hair goals are met

      They did not turn out at all how I wanted them. The ends came undone while I was sleeping so I ended up with straight ends. I have a pic on my camera of my bantu knots gone wrong. I will post it this evening.

    Well the knots look perfect, I can't imagine the end result not being great from this photo!

      The ends were too straight and it did more of a wave than a curl. The last time I did bantu knots I did them a lot smaller and I had more curls.
