Hey Ladies!!!!! So, you want luxurious tresses at a reasonable cost? You know, the extensions that last for at least 2-3 weave installs. Well, look no further, todays Product of the Week is none other than Goldi Locs Hair! I chose this extensions company for a few different reasons. 1st, their customer service is excellent. They are well informed of the hair extension industry and can answer most, if not all of the questions you may have about hair in general before making a purchase. Also, the website is user friendly and makes ordering online a breeze. Third, but not least, the hair is amazzzzziiiiinng. I've used all of the textures and am please with them all. Minimal shedding, no tangling, a thin weft, and easy to color are the personal things I look for when ordering hair for my lovely clients. GoldiLocs has all four!!!!!!! The most exciting thing is that 2012 is starting off with a bang for this young vibrant company. In February, the 1st flagship hair salon and boutique will open its doors!!!! Placed in the quant and trendy Mount Vernon area of Baltimore City, this salon will be among some of the top salons in Maryland. With the renowned Neal's Salon and Bijon Salon in walking distance, I'm sure this salon will aid in keeping the buzz about this neighborhood going! So congrats to Golilocs Hair and ladies place your orders quick!!!

Hey ladies, Now we know that we all want to use the best products to aid in having the healthiest hair possible. But that doesn't only require good shampoo and conditioner. It also requires great tools!!! So for this "PRODUCT OF THE WEEK", we are taking it to the beginning. In comes the Carbon Comb. This comb is amaaaazziingg!!! It has a no ragged edges which means no snagging any hairs from your scalp. It's also formulated to evenly distribute the natural oil thru hair while diminishing frizz. The Carbon Comb also doesn't bend, so no more breaking the comb while trying to get thru your hair! I use these combs on my clients and die if I have to even think of using something else. Every great ending has to have a strong foundation!!! Hope you invest in the combs, you'll thank me later!!!! Luv ya, peace! ;-)

We all know that aerosol sprays have been the culprit for destroying the ozone for quit some time now! But, here we have the solution, not only is this great for the earth but equally great for your hair. This is a alcohol free spray with a very low percentage of water as well. This decreases the effects that it has on the air when its released. I was introduced to this product by the owner of BXX Consulting firm. I used this product faithfully for a couple of months last year and was very pleased. I had the entire line from Wet Bar products (shampoo & conditioners), to Finishing products. I loooovveedd them & I hope you all Love It too!!!!!! Let me know what ya think! peace;-)

$18.00 vs $40-60.00 (LET THE WAR BEGIN)

Sooooooooo here it goes!!! Everyone always ask me what my take on the Dominican Salon is! I felt I couldn't give an opinion until I had experienced it for myself. I proceeded to asked around for a couple of weeks, trying to find the best Salon in my area.Upon arrival the ladies were very welcoming, until they saw my hair(its natural and a little past my shoulder when curly/nappy). One of the stylist then shampooed my hair which was very relaxing But and I say BUT, when it was time to condition she used a rat-tail comb to comb the conditioner thru my swollen nappy/curly hair. Now, I try my best not to tell people how to do their job, so I sat there like a good client and took the pain. Next, she attempted to roll my hair which actually could have gone successfully if my hair was submerged with water (the water would have helped my hair stretch, and in turn wrap around the roller smoothly). After being dried, they "ROUND BRUSHED" (blow dried) my hair straight,(burning my scalp "HOT"). Then finally, she faltironed my hair. With all of that said, there are great hair stylist all over and it doesn't matter what race they are. What matters is what healthy hair practices they incorporate while servicing you. I wasn't pleased with my expiernce but thats not to say someone else, some where else hasn't found a Dominicn Salon that is into Healthy Hair! I like the rolling ritual but don't believe in roundbrushing dry hair!!!!! I just advise that you use good judgement because saving now may cost you later. If you guys know of any Great Dominican Salons please share with me. People ask me all the time but the only one I know of is Cyntias Dominican Salon (this is not where I went) in Largo Md. SO REMEMBER, NO Rat-tails, No dry rolling, and No Round Brushing Dry Hair!!!!!!!!!!!!! peace;-)

Product of the Week!!! Heat Protectant!!!!!!

Courtesy of www.hairandnailtrends.com
So about 3yrs. ago I worked in a Salon named Funk the Hair Cafe' and was introduced to this great product. Now anyone that knows me, knows healthy hair is what I live for. If you have healthy hair as your base then any look is possible, and in turn will be amazingly beautiful. Sebastian has come up with a heat protecting shine that will make your hair look like a mirror with out looking or being weighed down. Always extend your arm fully when applying spray products to ensure your not using to much product. (little can be better!) Apply this product to wet hair before blowing straight or defusing for curls and style. Let me know what you ladies think, and stylist if you have any suggestions on products please email me @ malaikafrazier@gmail.com , together we can make this a Happy Healthy Hair World!!!!! peace;-)

Todays Beauty Pick! Wella Brilliance Deep Conditioner

Courtesy of Googlepics.com
Well ladies I've been using this conditioner faithfully for the last 2 months and it's AMAAAAAZZING!!!!! I like the fact that this product works on all hair types, from Kinky curly to Straight & fine. A small amount goes along way, you only need a tablespoon for your entire head. (no matter how long your hair) When using, apply conditioner and let sit for 3-5 mins. If you haven't treated your hair, leave on for 5-10mins (add heat). Finer hair types can also use this product as a good hydrating system just don't sit under the dryer when extending the time. I hope you ladies luv it as much as I do!!!! Let me know what you think and please subscribe!!!! It's great to be back!!! Thanx!!

SO, Miss Kelly Rowland is finally back at it with her short look!!!! Can we all say,"Yesssssssss!" Even though she gave us the best curly Lace-front during the last Destiny's Child Invasion......... It's something about that short sassy cut that serves us ever time! So with out further ado, here's THE TOOLS YOU USE:

For a flawless set, I suggest Nairobi Setting lotion. It is very light weight so it doesn't leave any residue on the hair and it also isn't hard like a gel!

After drying, comb and flatiron. NOTE: PLEASE REMEMBER EXCESSIVE USE OF HOT TOOLS MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO HAIR!!! PLEASE PRACTICE HEALTHY HAIR PRACTICES!!!!!

When in doubt, wear RED!!!!!!-Bill Blast

Courtesy of www.fashionbombdaily.com/www.rihannadaily.com

A lot of us wondered where and why Mrs. Ri-Ri went this stark RED! But when Trendsetting is what you do, You rarely have an answer except, it's what I felt at the time!!! The truth is, it's this imaginary wave of energy in the world that puts like minds on the same page. While Rihanna was going RED, so where the models walking down John Galliano's Runway, and the girl in Step-Up 3 (the dance movie;-) ). But with all that said...... there is a right way to achieve this style so, here's Tools You Use:

ALWAYS SEE A PROFESSIONAL FOR CHEMICAL SERVICES!!!!!! LOL, I know you were expecting an actual product but the best thing I can do for you guys is promote healthy hair practices. This look is Great, but please don't do it yourself. Keep it radiant with a color stay shampoo, and make sure you get your hair treated and trimmed every 4-6 or 6-8 weeks!!!!!! Hope you guys have fun!!!!!!!! peace;-)

Don't Call It A Come Back, BLONDES THE NEW BLACK!!!!!!
From Lady GaGa to Mary J. Blidge, Blonde has surly been flowing through these Tresses a lot lately! The key to this look, is to PLEEEEEEAASSE SEE A COLORIST! Yes girls, I know you can go to the local hair store and buy some bleach, but we want to have Healthy Hair Practices!!!!!! Not always going to see the stylist after you've played Quanita Bump n Curl or Candie the Colorist!!!! It's always best to maintain the color with Color Stay Shampoo's and not to use a lot of Heat! If you have wash and go hair please always use a moisturizing conditioner, even if you have oily hair, for the color can dry your hair out. This look isn't for everyone and it's great to add depth by having more than one shade of blonde for a more Polished Look.
Tools TO Use:
I recommend ARTec Color Shampoo

Her Milkshake may bring the boys to the yard but. her hair brings loads and loads of Fire!!!!!! This forever trend Trendsetteing Lady never stops. This Cool Color and Short Cut is to the Maxxx and i love it. Hair accessories are a great option for short or long hair when you want to add some Pizzazzzz!!! The color and cut should only be performed by a professional!!! and yes, that is an Extension ponytail on the side. Drawstring ponytails are always great for a quick fix!

Tools you use!!!!!

Natural or Nothin'

Bodywaves or KinkyQ's, its nothing better than seeing people except texture. (even if it isn't yours!lol) To look natural is the key! WE know this isn't Janets hair but..... for this to be done in 1988, WE Say BRAVO! Solange has been sporting her natural hair for about 2-3yrs now and is rocking it just as much as she'll rock the party. Beyonce'(lacefront?) sported her look for a private show @ NewYork Fall Fashion Week while hitting the runway during a private showing for TOM FORD! Str8t isn't always best for these ladies, and from the looks of things....... I couldn't agree more! I also recommend Mixed Chicks for all of your Curly needs!!!! peace!;-)

Even covered up, this Style Icon gives us amazing looks. If you do this look which is all the rage right now, make sure that your edges (perimeter of your hairline) are smoothed down so you have a polished finish. I recommend Alterna Hemp Sheer Pomade. A little goes a long way! Hope You Gorge Gals have fun while being a Modest Fashionista!!!!!!!!!!!!! peace:-)

GUCCI

What do you pick, Chocolate Brown or Sunny Blonde? Which ever you choose, they always look better cascading over the hood of a car!!!!!!!!! To get this Ocean Wave look, just blow dry your hair and use the curling wand to curl the hair in 6 sections. After, pin curl hair and get dressed. Let down, shake, and go! Gotta love Fun, Quick, Glamour!!!!

Me personally......... I'll take the car! LOL!

Locks of Love <3!!!!!!!!
I had the pleasure of cutting my clients hair for the Locks of Love Foundation the other day and I must say, starting my day like that was AMAAAAZZING! Locks of Love is a Non-profit Organization that provides Prosthetic Wigs for children who suffer from long-term hair lose through donations of hair from people like You and I! Your hair needs to be at least 10" long and cut off in a ponytail. Hair that has been colored may not be used due to the chemical process for manufacturing. Hair is such a big part of our outer image and to help build a child's self-esteem is priceless. I myself have been working on a project, I take a percentage of every extension service I provide and use it toward Lace-front Wig Units being made to donate to Children suffering from hair lose due to Cancer Treatment. It was great to help someone else donate what they could as well! All smiles over here and a <3 full of gratitude! Here are some pics of the process! Hope you enjoy! peace;-)
