A twist out [I commonly do two strand twists] may work well with proper products.

Flexirods/curl formers can be nice if you can figure out how to use 'em [I have trouble...]

A low bun can be nice to.

Naturallycurly or curlynikki are also much better forums for natural hair questions as they are natural hair forums.

Erin when you do the two strand twist out do you tie the roots down , and how long does it last?

Like band them for the sake of stretching them? I recently started to do that, but before I didn't and my hair came out just fine. I cut my hair off laster summer and when I did two strands twists in the winter/fall they would last anywhere from three days to a week or more. Now that it's summer and the humidity is here I'm lucky if I can make it from my house and to work without my hair shrinking. But I just need to find the right products.

Maybe you should get a weave or braids. That way you don't have to do your hair everyday, you'll give you're hair a break and time to grow

I say a standard braid, loose. coconut oil is great for a natural, chemical free moisturizer.
