Black & Grey

Hello, I hope you are all having a fabulous weekend. Last weekend I had the pleasure of assisting a friend with a project I absolutely loved the images and I decided to share them with you.During the shoot I was reminded of how extremely awkward I can be and  that I  need to learn asap how to pose because I was quite embarrassed when I was told to do something else, my mind went instantly blank.
I loved my outfit very basic and yet cute , the speckled  Gray cardigan I purchased years ago is a favourite of mine it comes down to my waist and it has the cutest board buttons and pockets, my black dress is another fav I love body con clothing .... I just do but I love to drape something loose over close fitting clothing. I added a black and gold statement necklace to add a little flair to the look and my nude slippers because they are my go tos.

Healthy Hair Journey #2: Curls

It's been about a year since I've been on this transitioning journey and to date I have one go to style,the same style I had when my hair was relaxed.I am not sure where or when I stopped doing  my curling techniques .I made an effort for  the month march to weekly do one of the following.I hope you find it helpful.

Perm Rods & Natural Hair: Which Size Will Create Your Desired Look?
Perm Rod Set
Perm rod curl sizes. I love this easy and quick visual to clearly see which size perm rods will deliver the results that you want.
As you can see perm rods  come in a wide variety of sizes and colours,the bigger the rod the looser the curl.There are tons of Instagram and Pinterst post as well as Youtube videos that explaining in great detail how to get this right.ONE HUGE TIP I'll give however ,do not do this on wet hair it takes forever to dry  for best results start on dry hair with just enough product to set the style(don't drench the hair with products).



I know we all know this technique ,but I  don't even know when I stopped doing this immediately after I washed my hair .But if you haven't in a while try it and see what you come up with.Twist outs work out much better for me and I often add Perm rods to the ends to achieve my desired look.
