Summer Adventures



Hello once again.A lot has happened in this past week for one I turned 25.Where has the years gone?This is why it is so import to savor everyday time is truly speeding by.This week I had a small gathering for my birthday with a few close friends. I had an amazing night at Cru Bar and I also had the opportunity to go on a trip with my employer to Chukka Good Hope.
I had a blast, I did not want to leave the rooftop beauty that is Cru bar,The service,the ambiance and the company was amazing. This was my third visit and it surely will not be my last.Recommendation if you are going in a large gathering do reserve a table especially if you are going there on the weekend.

Summer Trend : Braids


Hi there hope you are all well. This year is definitely the summer of braids. I have been seeing the Alisha keys back in the days styles popping up everywhere. I decided to try them out myself and let me just tell you I am in love.



For this style I used a pack and a half of Xpression Braid. The style took about 3 and a 1/2 hours. Definitely a shorter time frame that your standard box braid or Senegalese twist. My only concern at this point is how long the style will last. I am aiming for three weeks.This in my opinion heavily depends on your hair type.Given that my hair is quite light I may not make it to the three weeks but fingers cross.

Natural Hair Chronicles :Post Protective Style


It's coming to the end of the road for those dope braids. what is the  next step? Glad you asked,today we will look at  post protective style hair care.It is extremely important to give your hair a good cleanse after taking down a hair style.This is definitely one time I would recommend shampooing your hair several times to ensure product build up and dirt is completely removed from the hair.

Detangle, Another extremely important step.This is possibly one of the hardest and most annoying parts. I usually do this strep when i apply my conditioner.This is where the hair is most manageable.It is however extremely important to do as soon as possible.Not properly combing through the hair,may cause more tangles.
