Long Time No See – My Results From The Maximum Hydration Method

December 13, 2014 by Leave a Comment

  I won’t start off this post with the usual spiel that bloggers who have been on hiatus start with. You know how it goes ‘I’m so sorry I’ve been away so long” “I PROMISE from now on I will have more posts regularly” “Life got in the way” blah blah. Yes life has got […]

If You Are A Kinky Type 4 Like Me I’ve Got 2 Words For You: Wheat Germ Oil And Keracare Clear Protein Styling Gel

May 23, 2014 by 9 Comments

  Now ladies you know that my hair has like NO shine on it’s own and this fact is greatly exaggerated when I do wash and go’s. Oil will give me shiny straight hair but I haven’t found a way to make oil work for me when doing wash and go’s… until yesterday! I discovered […]

Springtime Break In Amsterdam

May 12, 2014 by 1 Comment

Before I even get started can I just qualify my absence by saying that I’ve been mad busy over the last few months. Who knew that being a blogger/enterpreneur (yes I think of myself as one of those now) could take so much time away from you. There’s simply isn’t enough time in the day! […]

Trying Out Bunning As A Long Term Protective Styling Strategy

October 31, 2013 by 18 Comments

Today I am doing the more ‘traditional’ blog post format instead of the ‘talking head’ videos I have been doing for the last few weeks. Although videos are easier to do, they require me to get my thoughts organized before I hit the record button which can sometimes feel like a lot of work. On […]

September 15, 2013 by 7 Comments

Sorry I haven’t updated in so long. I’ve found myself with very little time for luxuries like updating my blog in the last few weeks. But I managed to shoot a quick video today. Don’t laugh at me please, I’m not a born performer so the exhibitionism that is video creation does not come easy […]

New Mini Stash, A Beach Day And I Am So Done With Natural Hair Shows

July 29, 2013 by 9 Comments

Do you get nervous when a bunch of tattooed men in motorcycles ride by slowly while you are stationary in your car? You know the urban cliche that white people sitting in their cars immediately lock their doors on seeing black people approaching? Well I get the same overwhelming urge for self preservation anywhere near […]

Up Close And Personal With My Shrunken Naked Hair

June 29, 2013 by 8 Comments

A reader Melanie wrote to me a few days ago asking to see my naked hair with no products and fully shrunken. Of course I was taken aback by this request and was fully intending to respond saying “No [insert string of profanities here] way!” After all I’ve already shown you guys my wet unadorned […]

I Tried, I Really Did, But I Just Prefer My Hair Curly

June 22, 2013 by 10 Comments

When I was in my early 20’s I used to get approached my men once, maybe twice daily. I think most women tend to have a similar record, it’s the way of the world I suppose. As I’ve got older and a lot of people my age started pairing off and living together or getting […]

And I Used To Think That Color Made Curls Pop!

June 7, 2013 by 9 Comments

Ok this is a super quick post. Stupidly I went out shopping with the hubs two days in a row earlier this week and as a result I have a to-do list as long as my arm and 20 emails in my inbox still to look at. And they said blogging for a living was […]

New Way Of Doing A Braid Out And It Starts With Twists

May 15, 2013 by 2 Comments

Because of an appointment that I have on Friday in London we are having to do the 3 hour drive this Thursday and come back on Friday. Then next […]

One Of The Only Stylists That I Would Ever Let Touch My Hair

April 18, 2013 by 5 Comments

Based on this title you may think that I have something against stylists. I don’t. No really I don’t. It’s just the ones I have come across so far have not impressed me enough for me to put my head within reaching distance of their salons. I came across Renice’s website years and years ago at the beginning of […]
