The frizz factor is not a problem either. I actually don't mind the slight frizziness because it makes the curls a look a little more bouncier and less perfect.

The Knots... OUT
The curls were very tight (it looked like I chopped off a few inches)! I actually liked them better on the 2nd day, after they dropped a little. The real test was going to the gym- I put on a headband and threw the curls up into a ponytail. When I took the ponytail down the curls were still in place, just a little looser.

Your hair looks absolutely wonderful here. How many knots did you do? And did you twist them and then knot them like CN, or did you just make them into a knot?
@ Summer, I did about 17 "buns". I didn't twist them first, I just took one section and twisted into a tiny little bun, and clipped into place with a metal clip. I didn't do them tight. The way I did it was more like a pin curl, rather than a "knot". I knew I should've taken pics! ...Next time :-/
Wooooooooow. These are some CURLS, girl! So cute. Did you use any products?
Woo hoo!! Pics!! LoL, you're hair turned out so cute! I love the red lipstick :o)

goregous!
I LOVE it. I can't wait for my hair to get out of this TWA stage. I'm so happy I got rid of the perm. There are so many options with natural hair.
Um yeah your hair looks amazing!!!! I'm making a jealous face right now.
wow. love the results...it really look like a roller set... ESPECIALLY day two...which products did you use when doing your twists and where do you buy your henna from?
supercute, love the style
Beautiful, I like your second day also.
Thanks guys- I use Infusium 23 with equal parts water in my spray bottle (to keep the hair wet), and Pantene Relaxed & Natural conditioner (as a leave in). I noticed it was a little dry today after I came from the gym so I moisturized with a little coconut oil.
@JeniusJ: I usually get my Henna from a small shop on 28th and Lexington.
Wow! This is AMAZING!
Perfect. Thanks Wes!

Oh so glamorous!!!! Love the results, and you are rocking the hell out of that red lipstick ;)
Fabulous!
I've never seen bantu knots that curly.
Its very cute
your hair is absolutely beautiful! omg...i gotta try this soon
VERY NICE!!!! Wow it looks like you used thick barrel curling iron with these curls...good job!
Very beautiful!!!! I like doing this style with pin curls. Easier to do and easy to sleep on.
gorgeous! this is what i was hoping my bantu knots would look like. you're convincing me to try them one more time before reverting back to the twist n curl.
oh wow..I love it! You look fabulous in these pics:)Thanks for sharing:)
i am absolutely in love with your results! everyone's knots has their own little style to them, i love it! but i have a question, if you didn't two strand twist, exactly how did you form your knot? I know you mentioned it doing it more like a pin curl, but were they tight? were they overlapping? i'm a complete newbie at this type of thing but i'd love to try and get my next set of knots to be similar to this look.
i didn't realize you could get such curly curls from bantu knots without your hair being straight first. lov-er-ly!!
