summer hair 2010: curly fro then “big chop” to pixie

January 28th, 2010

teyana_taylor_hairi’m thinking ahead about my hair guys! ;)

instead of rocking my own fro, i’ve decided to mix it up!!

i’ve decided to keep my hair covered a.k.a protective styled until august or september of this year.

in sept??? of 09 (may have been late aug) i started wearing my lace wig. i’m protective styling to retain length and to mix it up a bit. also, i want to do so many different things that i know if i did these things to my hair, i’d screw it up and end up some kinda bald headed! no, no, no.

so to have fun with my hair, i’m just going to buy some more hair! :)

my plan is to install a fresh set of cornrows every two months – moisturize daily or when needed, wash twice a month and apply my lace wigs (or a wig that i’m contemplating making) as i go along.

i plan to start off with “big hair”, but when the real heat of summer hits, it’s going to be wayyyyy to much hair so i’m going to do a fake “chop.”

and then late summer, even more of a “chop!” yep, i have it allll planned out. if all goes well, my hairstyles are gong to go look similar to these styles (my inspirations), in this order:

my hair story: the kinks, the coils and relaxers!

January 27th, 2010

myhairmy hair is kinky and curly.

it’s hair that has been called: bad, nappy, good, curly, kinky, and a variety of things in between.

i simply call it my hair.

my hair is also colored. i had it colored at an aveda concept salon in feb 09. the colors are copper, blonde and chocolate brown; the chocolate is in the back, while the front is more copper with blonde highlights.

my regimen is very simple {i’m a keep it simple (and fast!) kinda gal}:

  1. co-wash once a week; sometimes twice a week, or even sometimes every other week – depending on workout schedule
  2. use either carefree gold, glycerin, hawaiian 14-in-1 and or a combo to seal in moisture.
  3. top off with olive oil or coconut oil
  4. add a touch of gel for frizzies (optional)
  5. twist and sleep or fluff and go
  6. clarify once a month with acv (apple cider vinegar)

that’s it. sometimes it changes, but more often than not, it does not.

i like to try a lot of products though (so sometimes #2 and #4 change up), a different condish here and there, gels, etc., so i’ll be doing plenty of reviews.

my hair back story

like most little black girls, i was natural up until my teens. it was actually the year i was to turn 13 (so i was 12) that i got my first relaxer.

how to invest in your most flattering pair of leather pants

January 26th, 2010

this is for you awhley ;)

rihanna-leather-pantswe’ve seen them everywhere – but mostly on celebs, and when we do see them – they fit like a charm, like a custom made charm. i’m talking leather pants.

most women covet leather pants and either love them or hate them, and i hate to be the bearer of bad news (well, depending on how you look at it), but leather pants are for women on the slim side. this may be a little un-pc, but the bigger you are, the less appealing leather pants are. and i say this with all good intention. i honestly think after a size 10, you are skating into hooch territory with slim fits, though you may be able to get away with a looser fit up to a 12. but hey, that’s just my fashion OPINION. in no way, shape, or form am i being discriminatory; only sharing fashion advice.

with that being said. let’s go over some basic rules to choosing the perfect pair of leather pants.

what i (always) keep in my makeup bag pt. 1

January 22nd, 2010

i do love my staple products. and though i’m what you could call “picky” about my hair products and what i use to treat my kinky, coils, i’m a lot more flexible when it comes to makeup. for me, makeup is a time to play and have fun and invoke your inner picasso!

while you can often find me circling the beauty isles at cvs, walgreens or one of my favorite places to buy makeup, walmart, picking up new items, there will always remain those staple items that i consider holy grail – that is, if they start to fail me! :) but these drugstore products so far have yet to let me down and after years of wear, i KEEP going back and continue to keep these items stocked in my bag.

these are my current and constant holy grails drugstore products…
