Hola! OMG I wanted to get this post out while everyone was still talking about carnival but I came back to Jamaica with the WORST flu ever. I’m not even sure it’s a flu. I’m STILL feeling like a zombie. But…let’s not start with the bad part -__- So it all started in October I…
Let’s talk hair colour, hair damage and big chop number two. It’s been a little under a year now since my first big chop. I’ve been having too much fun playing with colour. So much so that even though I do have a little length now, a lot of it is damaged! So I knew…
So if you’ve been around these parts for at least a couple months, you know that I’ve been pretty adventurous with hair colour, disregarding any damage apparently that I know I’m wreaking on my hair. I’ve been fire-engine red, pink and blue so far. In my latest stint, I finally got tired of the blue…
A few flicks from my weekend. I jacked Asafa Powell’s flirty thirty theme. His 30th birthday was on Friday the 23rd, one day before mine and he had a party to celebrate Friday night which I crashed, then he came to the club Saturday night as well so in my head we hung out all…
What are the TWA growth stages? Somebody send me a chart. In about a week’s time, it will be 9 months since I big chopped and have been sporting my natural hair. I went for the big chop even though I had begun transitioning about 6 months prior simply because I always wanted to try…
Since I’ve started replacing breakfast with a green smoothie every morning, I’ve had phenomenal results and many people have asked me for tips and recommendations as they do their own research into incorporating juicing into their lives. I’m adding all my best tips here for everyone who may be thinking about this too. I had…
When I big chopped four and a half months ago, I felt as if I was so ready for this journey. I was reading all the right blogs and talking the lingo with the best of them. I dived head first into the deep end of natural hair care, doing my first henna only three weeks…
After my first henna application, I still wanted more colour so I decided to try another box colour over my henna. That was a miserable fail and I ended up with a copper colour I was not feeling. So after that dilemma of having orange hair, I decided to slap some henna on my head…
I love hair colour. I’ve been addicted to colouring my hair ever since I left high school and started relaxing my hair. It’s mostly been some shade of blonde, I’ve never really liked red, wasn’t bright enough and trying to get it bright started to look clownish to me. See what I mean? I decided…
Hey guys, are you yet using things from your kitchen in your beauty regimen? It’s so amazing to me that so many of the things already in my kitchen are so beneficial to my hair and I’ve been sleeping on them all. The natural hair gurus on Curly Nikki and Black Girl Long Hair have…
So it’s been a few months now since I’ve been transitioning to natural hair. I’ve only got maybe two inches of new growth on my head and I’ve already become frustrated with styling my different textures and wanting to take the big chop plunge. My plan is to wait a few more months when hopefully…
Please excuse my hiatus…it’s just one of those things. You know, as a mom, it’s so amazing to watch a little life blossom. They’re so precious…so amazing…so full of life. Every time she says something new…discovers a new way to do something or is up to some mischief and looks over at me to see…
I need to get more greens in my diet. Don’t we all? I remember as a child my grandma used to try and get me to eat these ice cubes she froze with calaloo and milk and I dunno what else. I thought they were the most disgusting thing on earth, unless she put lots…
So as I mentioned in Day 1’s post, I was in Ashe while in high school. When you’re in Ashe or any performing arts company I imagine, everybody wants to be the diva. The diva is the one who gets all the solo’s and signs more autographs. The diva can also be the one with…
