• Protective Styling: Wigging It

    This summer, I added a different protective styling method to my capsule...wigs! I've always wanted to try a wig but I was hesitant and perhaps afraid to. Based on my observations, lace front wigs seem to be the most difficult units for amateur wig wearers to install. Even some women who have been wearing wigs for years haven't mastered the art of concealing the lace on the front of their units. How did I pull it off? A headband wig!

  • My Wash ‘N Go Hair Routine

    If you’ve ever talked hair with me then you know I am a die-hard fan of the wash ‘n go routine for my curls. It is my holy grail, my signature, my staple. What is a wash ‘n go you ask? Technically it means you wash your hair, put your products in it and go about your day. For me it’s easy, it saves my hair from heat damage and I don’t have to manipulate my hair in order to style it. On the days that I wash my hair, I apply a leave-in conditioner, an oil (or a cream with oils in it), and a gel. In that order.…

  • Silver Lining

    “That’s not a gray hair, honey. That’s your silver lining.” ~Pamela Price This blog post really isn’t about my curly top. It’s been a tough year for a lot of us. COVID-19 came in like a wrecking ball. And its still here. I’ll admit that when news of the virus broke, I put it in my mental file cabinet and didn’t think much of it. Then March came and in a matter of weeks I began working from home indefinitely, heard reports of family and friends being effected by the virus and eventually had to cancel every trip that I had planned through July. However, changing my daily routine and…

  • Low Maintenance

    I don’t really wear a lot of makeup. I remember in college wanting to have a natural look, so that meant wearing clear lipgloss that had a bonafide shine to it. Listen, Wet n Wild’s clear lipgloss was the bomb! Then for whatever reason, I spent my late 20’s and early 30’s wearing a face powder (that will remain anonymous) that had me slayed, baby! Do you hear me?! I didn’t know how heavy it was, all I knew is that I loved that it helped my skin not look so oily. I remember going into a major beauty store to restock my makeup and a sales associate telling me…

  • Pretty In Pink

    I don’t usually wear a pink lip, but the Fenty Beauty Mattemoiselle Plush Matte Lipstick in Electric Pink is a whole mood!  Let’s be honest. Being in quarantine/shelter in place for the last couple of months has taken its toll on many of us not only mentally, but on our outward appearances as well. There isn’t a need to get up and get dressed most days because many of us are either working from home or not able to work at all. Our routines that involved hair salons, barbershops and nail salons are on indefinite pause. Even with businesses opening and cities easing into resuming what we knew as normalcy,…

  • Going for the Gold

    Want to switch up your hair color but you don’t want it to be permanent? Hair Paint Wax is a great option! I have to admit that when it comes to my hair, I don’t really take risks and I rarely switch things up. Now that I think about it, I haven’t colored my hair since 2004! However, my interest was peaked when I kept seeing beautiful curls and coils all over social media enhanced by vibrant colors. The icing on the cake is that the colors were temporary and did not involve harsh chemicals! To be honest Hair Paint Wax was so popular that by the time I looked…
