Coming soon

So I have good news. Today I officially got the blog in my name. I'm sure it's not much to you guys but this is something that I've been working on for a while now. I'm being patient watching everything grow and it's bringing me so much joy. I have an accessory line coming soon you guys. I really appreciate the support! Thank you so much.


Natural beauty of the day.


So I came across this beautiful girl (kieraplease) on Instagram. She has so much style and I love it. Not to mention her big hair. I had no choice but to make her the natural beauty of the day. 

Are you cutting off to much when trimming?

A lot of times we often think that when getting our hair professionally trimmed they're trimming to much; and a lot of time we're right! Unless your hair is completely damaged you shouldn't have to trim that much. 

Here is an image that I found on Instagram that might help you guys determine where and where not to cut. I hope this helps!

Bantu knot results

So I put Bantu knots in my hair for the first time since my big chop in April.
I used shea moistures curl enhancing smoothie, and coconut oil on freshly cowashed hair. They both make my hair extremely soft and they smell great!!! It only took me about 45 mins to complete them. Two strand twisting then knotting. 

I do like my results, however, I wish I would've been a little more defined. High hopes for next time.

Marleytwist maintenance.


Often times we put out hair in protective styles forgetting that we still have daily up keep. My hair in currently braided up on both sides with marley twist in the middle. 
I actually like this style because there's so much that I can do to it. Put in a bun, wear it to one side, etc. To keep my hair clean between cowashes I spray my hair with water then use a dry shampoo spray. 
It's very inexpensive and leaves a slight tingling feeling similar to dr. Miracle. It smells amazing also. I then apply shea moisture a curl enhancing smoothie and coconut oil mix. I do this about ever 2 days. I hope this helps.

Shea Moisture

Everybody knows how I feel about Shea moisture products. Absolutely love. The very first time I tried them off of recommendation. It was bad but it didn't do much for my hair. I soon found a chart showing which products work well with what hair type. 

I saw a complete difference. My hair loves this stuff. I'm type 4c. I still haven't been able to try them all because they're ALWAYS sold out! That says enough on its own. Go out and get your shea moisture today!!
