Question Today was a success!!!

Hey, Natural's!

So, I'm on day 3 of natural hair styling and I must admit that I like it! I've been getting lots of compliments on my hair. I used to keep my hair flat ironed or weaved and I was concerned about the comments I'd get from my co-workers. Everyone knows me for trying different styles but it has always been with weave and not my natural hair. To my surprise everyone LOVES IT! Today I'm rocking this flat twist meets bun "thinga-majigga" and I'm loving it! I'm going to try to keep it up for a few days and switch it up for the weekend.

Are there any styles that I should try? Please keep in mind that I'm new to styling my own natural hair. I need ideas!

Thank you!

I tried bantu knots day 1 and I LOVED the results... however, when it was time for bed I knotted my hair and by the morning my hair was unraveled... talk about trial and error! Day 2 was a tough day.
