LOL at that title. I know you were like what from reading that title, but I feel like I am “thuggin it” with my cornrows to the back. Actually, it is flat twists to the back and I was not going to wear the twists as a style but after all that work of parting and twisting I was like whatever, I’m rocking these! So *tada* here they are!

The fact that I was able to flat twist all the way back shows that my hair is growing! *yay* but it is in that awkward length stage or at least I think so. I dont like how it sticks out on the side so I usually end up twisting or pinning it back so a shaping cut may be in my near future.
I did the flat twists on dry hair and the only product I used was my coconut oil/shea butter mixture that I whipped up. I pinned up the ends and then smoothed some argan oil gel on top of the twists and on my edges, tied on a scarf and that’s it. I added the flower clip for work to pretty it up in the back. (The flower stays as long as I have this style because I removed the clip and my earrings to go to the gym yesterday and I looked like a boy with all my hair back, not a good look! lol) This style can be classified as a protective style also.
Thanks for reading!
Why Meagan loves Gabby
Well, the reason I love Gabby [Union] so much is because we did Deliver Us From Eva together almost 10 years ago, and she really took me under her wing. She went to the head of Sony/Screen Gems and she said to him, ‘Clint, this girl is really talented. I really want you to start working with her. I really want you to help her out.’
In this industry, especially in this industry with Black folk regarding Black women, it’s very rare where another Black woman will go to bat for you and want you to get a job knowing that you guys could possibly be going up for the same role.
And that’s the type of person that Gabrielle is. She’s an honest and genuine person, a real lover and she went to bat for me. All those [Screen Gems] movies kind of came from that one relationship that Gabrielle introduced me to. It’s not that she taught me something in particular, but she showed me that there are good women out there that are not catty and that actually want to see you succeed.
