Always carry more than ONE hair tye. The one your wear may break, always have back ups.

Do NOT shampoo your hair. Your stripping your hair of its natural oils and you need same much as you can get.

Sham-POO, is bad. Conditioner, is good.

Golden Gabby!

Gabrielle Douglas

People have taken hating onto a whole new level, right? Why are people so focused on hair? Are you mad that she has won the gold? From what I've heard she's the first black female to win the gymnasts gold all-round, why are you so focus on her hair and not her achievements? Why can't you just be proud of her? She is a beautiful black young lady, hair does NOT make a person, who they are does and like I said she is beautiful black young lady. But, I didn't realize that we were watching a hair salon contest. I could have sworn the Olympics was about physical abilities, talent, and competition.

Whether Gabby's haters like it or not I'm giving my opinion about the situation. I feel like the way she had her hair was smart. I was out of the way, you had full focus on her gorgeous face. Her hair wasn't "unkempted". People will try to bring others down for their own amusement but they fail to realize they are only making the other person (Gabby) stronger. Your petty remarks make you look silly guys, grow up. Yay Gabby, congrats!

   No.

2. Are you natural?
   Yes.

3. How long have you been natural?
   Two years and counting.

4.What made you go natural?
   Perms/Relaxers have very strong chemicals that were taking out my hair and irritating my scalp.

5.Are you against people with perms/relaxers?

6.What's your curl pattern?
   I have no clue.

7.What color is your hair?
   Dark brown, chocolate brown, and sandy brown. Not black.

8.Have you ever dyed your hair?
  Yes, it damaged my hair, had to dye it black because the color I used was too light for my hair.

9.What's your regimen?
   I do braid outs, I use conditioner, I wash with cool water, I condition with alot of natural stuff like honey, etc., and at night I pull my hair up and cover it with a bonnet.

10.Why is your hair greasy?
    It's not grease; I use home made gels, coco nut oil, and conditioners, NO grease.

11. If you've been natural for two years why is your hair short?
      I have shrinkage...the illusion that your hair is shorter than it appears; If you pull the curls you'll see the real length which is 8 inches. *I'M NOT SAYING WALK AROUND PULLING CURLS. Please don't, I warn you.

12. Can I touch your hair?
     No, when you were little your mother always said don't let people play in your hair. It was for a reason. I'm taking the time to grow my hair for me NOT for you to play in. Unless you can do natural hair!

When I saw these on Pinterest I could waiting to start my next DIY project. My favorite one is the California pillow. I'm not from California but I think it's good way to show you love your home town. California heart is pillow I would take on trip or something. I like the pillow with all the writing as well because you could your favorite poem, phrase, or song. The "Go To The Gym" is motivational, in my opinion. I love fitness.

I saw the most beautiful tumblr post that really made my morning and put a smile on my face. :)
It was a post on tumblr that had two pictures; one of a light skin chick and one of a brown skin chick, it said light skin don't make you cute , dark skin don't make you ugly. No, I don't have anything adjust little skin people, considering my heritage is like a rainbow. But the fact of the matter is the no skin color is more superior than the other and I'm happy alot of people share the same thoughts as I do. If your pale skinned, olive skinned, brown skinned, dark skinned, blue skinned, WHATEVER, your beautiful.
