conair-hot-rollers3

Hot rollers are my latest addiction. I’ve been using them a lot lately to add volume when my hair is too straight, or to just change my style up on a whim.

Silky-Wraps4

It is very important to tie your hair up at night before bed, and is best to do so with a silk or satin head wrap. If you really don’t like to tie your hair up, the other option is a satin pillowcase. Why not cotton you ask? Cotton will absorb all of the moisture from your tresses and causes friction leading to breakage. I don’t know about you dolls but I have the hardest time finding satin head

Relaxed and Proud

"Relaxed and Proud"

I relax my hair. Yup, I said it. My preference. My prerogative. There always seems to be a battle on relaxed versus natural hair but in my opinion, it is just not that serious.

That is still too many in my opinion but I’ll digress. If you notice that the hair you are losing is falling in broken pieces or coming from a certain area, this is considered hair-breakage or may be balding. Stop hair loss in it’s tracks with Garlic! Garlic is a natural

Happy Monday Sweeties! So it was relaxer time again… yes, again. With this short cut I have to relax my hair every 4-5 weeks and the nape every other week or it is NOT a good look.
