Well, there is a story that goes along with this client. She came in for her consultation and shared a few interesting stories about her natural hair journey and was quite apprehensive about wearing her own hair. You see, she had already been convinced that 'natural' was the way to go. She just didn't know what to do with her hair. And so, the wig-loving began.
Oh, how I wish I could have snagged a before and after type of deal with her because the day she came in for her service, she was in fact wearing one of those beauties. She chooses really nice ones though - must give her credit!
We discussed style ideas and started out with a Pompadour-ish look, but that really was not her style. I ended up twisting the front into individual two-strand twists and pinning it in place. She never knew what she could do with her hair until then!
I've been experimenting and taking a number of photos with different styles here lately. On this particular day, I wanted bangs - big poofy ones! My sister is going to crack up by this title - I just had to put that out there. Just for you: Oo-wee Look at she! LOL!
More often than not, I receive calls from new naturals who are at a loss regarding what to do with their hair. So, you've chopped it off, rocked your fro and now what? The Teeny Weeny Afro (TWA) is nice, cute and oh so simple, but what about when you're tired of that? What about those curls you see everywhere?
I'm baaa-aaaaack! I'm returning to show you a straight hair-do. This first one was completely jacked from 'Whoissugar'. That's right, your girl was on YouTube after writing an Examiner article, went back the next morning and saw this video in my suggested videos.
Welcome back to another rendition of the Weekly Webcam - Salon Shot version! Well, now that I can incorporate some salon shots, this will definitely be a weekly occurrence. This salon shot is composed of one of my favorites. I love to twist! This particular client has a twist set that is a bit asymmetrical and electrifying at the same time.
Yet another LaVida Given By Nature product that has been put to the test. The name alone is very intriguing. Let's go in on this one...
This ingredient can be found in many of our hair and skincare products. Its primary function is to remove dirt, oil and buildup regardless of the surface. I say this because the same ingredient that we spread on our body surfaces is also used (in higher concentrations of course) in engine degreasers and floor cleaners! Can you imagine using the same chemical to clean your face/hair to clean your engine?!
