ME MY HAIR AND I

2011-11-20T14:44:00.001-08:00

It's been awhile since I blogged about a wig and maybe this one is just worth the chatter. I have seen plenty of reviews on different wigs by some beautiful youtuber's some which I think dont get enough viewership (but anywho) I had to come and give my 2 cents about this one I am inlove with the touch the feel the look of this one. My son loves it my Family loves it and even the New Boa loves it. How could you go wrong with this one?

I will be rocking her this season for the holidays because you she is the one, for that sexy Red or Black holiday dress. She makes you feel stunning and looks up to part! I never tell people what to buy because I am not in there pockets but if this is in your price range try and buy it! Save up for this one ladies.

My Top Favorite Hair Products

2011-09-18T08:52:00.000-07:00

Bonus Product: I have tried A Few Deep Conditoners Komaza Care, The one by The Doctor whats his name you get it from like the dollar store, etc, etc but the Darcys does the freaking trick! The only thing once again its the size. Mines last 2 months almost because I started using it in the TWA stage. It is also one of her higher products for me it is worth it but as I said we gonna need a bigger JAR!

#5 Darcy's Twisting Avacodo and plum twisting cream makes my list as a favorite wash N go product. I did not liek this product for twist! No hold what so ever, not a good under base either for me. But oneday I cowashed and used it on wet hair and sealed with oil and Bam! Instant moist curls! for 3 days!

#4 Before I started my Journey I started using the MOJA Shampoo and conditioner from Komaza Care and there the tops on my list I even feel relax hair ladies need to give these a go. The shampoo does not over strip your hair where I have used shea M, Suave, Tressemme, and a few others nothing feels like this one as of yet. It comes in a 8 oz and a 16 oz container and affordable you don't need a ton of product goes a long way! For some die hard people who are a ingrediant junky please read the label before buying it.

#3 Is a Combonation Shea M. Deep treatment Masque & Shea M. Curling smoothie, since you can use the shea M. Deep treatment
Masque as a leave in I oneday found a small amount on wet hair along with a small amount of the curling smoothie not only made my hair soft but made a great twist out without feeling hard or crunchy!

#2 Darcy's Curling Jelly is 2 on my list for a styling aid, Now Eco styler is cheaper but for me on wet hair and the wetter the better this product gives my hair a nice firm hold and second to third day hair without a build up! It also does not dry my hair out like the Eco Styler nor makes it hard. It has a Yummy smell but not to harsh or over powering. Con's would be I feel 8 ounces is not enough short hair ladies will benifit from it with a light hand. But the heavy handed people will not. I think she needs to make like a 16oz Jar. I use this product when I want to go a few days on a wash N go's.

Zipporahbeauty Green Tea Hair & Body Butter, I was allowed to try the 4 oz size along with her Vanilla Mint Serum several month's ago. But ended up falling inlove with the Green Tea Hair & Body butter this product gets your hair back on track it melts in your hands like butter ~ when my hair feels a bit dry/course maybe from washing or protein overload. I just deep condition and use this product to put my hair in twist a little goes along way on wet hair its amazing and your hair remains soft. I had to buy this product in a 8 oz jar which she now sells on her site.

Hello My beautiful Natural Hair Ladies of the blog world, So I thought I would make a post on some products I have used over and over since my big chop. Its now into my 5th month. As I am still getting the hang of things and trying things, I kinda find the things I wanted to try out becoming a long memory. For I have been happy with the items I have used so far to the point I ask myself why bother buying all this stuff?
So My top Pick's are drumroll please!

The Month of May Total Hair Haul

2011-06-06T15:45:00.001-07:00

So no I did not over do the hair hauling for the month of May in fact I think I did really good, I did not go over board Like I would have thought. I had to come to grip's with the fact I have TWA hair and what I use most of the time does not take much for now. Some of the fun things I would love to try and use on it My hair needs to be longer to give that look I want and would love. So I have time but not patience! So you know I am gonna cut up for the month of July trying new thing
s lol. I will try to review some things for you all on YouTube. All my reviews are honest I have tried to calm it down for those who don't like cursing but some Product's Make you wanna curse! LOL ( totally twisted is the only fail for the month of May!
So I went back for more on a few item's like the Shea Moisture Product's, and I will be trying the shampoo out this month from that line. I was not a big fan at first of the shea moisture curl smoothie but it rub in on me. Giovanni direct leave in was $4.58 on the Vitacost website so I ordered 2 but the shipper that sold out on Amazon shipped out the bottle I had ordered so I ended up with 3! So No I do not LOVE the Giovanni Leave in that much! The Neem oil is good for the scalp but Oh my gosh it stinks like a deli with raw onions!

Beautiful Curl.net Contest

2011-05-27T13:03:00.000-07:00

I made my Wash N Go Last 5 whole day's

2011-05-20T12:09:00.000-07:00

On Monday when I did a Wash N Go I did not know I was going to make it last 5 day's and actually make it so I did not take any special picture's. But Here is a show of what I did the rest of the week.

Monday I washed my hair and use products very light but enough to give my curls a hold and last. I woke up every morning and refreshed it. I did sleep with a plastic cap and bonnet for the first 3 days. It gave my hair Moisture and kept the curls popping! The rest of the week I just did a satin cap and bonnet.

Hump Day I kept it simple to what I have been doing since Monday, The only thing is I just refresh with a little spritz of Vita Reign form komaza care For added shine I used Vanilla Mint Hair serum!

So Thursday what would normally be a wash N Go But I refreshed Monday's wash N go with A little H2o and ZB Vanilla Mint Hair Serum, I added just a little Eco Style threw out my curls and Then I sectioned off My bang area and clamped it out of the way. Then taking a little gel slicked my edges and typed them Down 20 minutes later I added a Head Band and here you go!
Oh I look a little naked with no brow's LOL Sorry!

So on Thursday night I took my time and did small twist out on my hair where needed some a little bigger got lazy and as you know my top has more hair! So Its Friday and I have mini twist all over today but I left them twisted up. I will being doing this the next few day's and wearing a Wig or some short. I am glad I did this because I was able to care for e Scalp and this morning when I gave it a little spritz It was like Awww! LOL

A close view of My small twist

Thank you for taking time out to view and read....
Have a great weekend!
Oh I will be leaving my twist in until wash Day and wearing a lace front tomorrow I have to go to my Son's Graduation

So I tried to a Avacodo Mix for a Pre Poo today

2011-05-15T17:38:00.000-07:00

Hello My beautiful ladies of Me My Hair and I, so Today I did a Avacodo treatment on my hair Kinda like a Pre shampoo treat for my hair. Well Let's just say Thats how I did it lol.... I did the following below warmed it up a tad bit in the Microwave. ( Just a few second) I appiled it to my hair.

Then I placed a plastic cap on my hair for like 30 mintes. Keep a towel nearby because the oils will run down your neck! Gosh lol... I rinsed in the Shower, Used MY Komaza Care Shampoo & Conditoner..

I gave my hair a shake in the shower to losen the curls. I damp it with a towel. I then added My Zipporah beauty Vanilla Mint Hari Serum and allowed my hair to dry.
Now here is the Kicker since the Vanilla mint serum makes my hair soft I cannot say that the Avacodo Treament was the BOMB! But after rinsing it out my hair my curls where rockiing my the feel of it lol.

After my hair was totally dried I comb it out to get a mini PUFF! My hair was just hat soft(Zipporah Beauty) Moisturizing combo is the BIZ!
Next week I must wear a protective style been playing in my hair to much lol

Today I loved my Hair

2011-05-03T19:55:00.000-07:00

Today was a good day I loved my hair you see it was not some funky new style or some happy beautiful look I was rocking. It was easy breezy and soft! The last few days all I kept thinking did I really make this kinda choice, you see all the videos in the world are not going to prepare you for the actual act of cutting off your hair. You can watch your favorites in the natural community, You can visit every .ning site. Hell you can even google but its not like the act one does to oneself. You look in the mirror, you feel your hair gone! What was there is not there anymore you can't glue it back it on! Early the next morning you rush and look in the mirror praying it looks like yesterday or either you dreamed it all... LOL

You must do this for you not because you think your gonna look like the next person with Big beautiful Natural hair. In fact your hair may not curl at all, It may have a s pattern or a wavy pattern. You must be prepared to love your hair no matter if you are a, 4 4a 4b 4c. You must give it time to grow back, To me that's going to be the hardest waiting to see what I have 6months down the line or 1 year down the line.
So I am going to post My 2 year goal Hair in this thread simply because you have to have dreams right!
My first year goal Hair

My Final Chopping!

2011-04-27T12:29:00.000-07:00

Wow its been awhile since I have posted anything worth saying about my hair! Well Last entry was when I had my sew in (yes) its been awhile like I stated. Since then I have rocked bantu's, twist, braid outs, And of course the world of Lace fronts. One day I was so pissed off at my hair and shaved off all my sides leaving me to look like a dam Shaved Bird! Below is after the sides Started to grow Back I repeat started! LOL Its was flat Ironed (something I should not done but it was Kinky and curly and had to manage) So at the time I thought it was best! NOPE~ it was not!!!

So Here I am Love's my final Chopping! Its day 2 and I am writing this and still don't quite know how I feel about what I did at this time in my life. I mean its hair it will grow back right? I am 36 and still have some thickness to it, no signs of female balding so maybe I have a chance for it to grow back pretty and thick! I am gonna have to research natural hair coloring because I am not going to have the grays showing in the front looking like Peppy La Phew! Here are some Photo's Below of my first Day of my Final Chopping! Also the video I made for YouTube with my reaction after the fact. Thank you for taking time to read my post.

Hana Shine Shield from Misikko

2010-08-18T12:21:00.000-07:00

Hello Luv Bugs so I finally got to chop 2 items off my forever wish list to try, 1 item was the Chi Silk infusion & the Hana Shine Shield.
I feel both products do there just as far as shine goes, the Chi is up first in this chat and she is a small 2 oz bottle you only need just a dab and that it! For me it gives shine helps the frizz but I don't Like the smell (serious) I couldn't get with the smell it reminds me of the lady in the store with the loud perfume! I had a headache. But it does give a nice shine and coat to your hair.

The Hana Shine Shield is really my top favorite of the 2 it shields, seals and coats your ends and actually protects your hair during flat ironing. I was using a product from Sally's and I notice every time I would flat iron my hair 3 days later it would have this heat Damage look about it. I felt like I had to start all over again.
With the Hana Shine shield you only need about a quarter amount for thick hair texture. You don't need much it really coats your hair and can be used on wet and try hair. I used it wet and notice way less frizz as it air dryed. I used it after flat ironing for a added shine and sell to protect my hair and its ends. If I had to do it again it would be The Hana thumbs all the way up. I own a set of flat irons from Hana my very first good pair of flat irons. I think they stand behind there products for a good reason! You can do more search and destroy at Misikko!

Cheap ass People Rant

2010-08-11T15:57:00.000-07:00

Hey you guys sometimes I feel like dam you cant win for loosing, Like this my mutha head and if my hair doesn't respond or like something I not going to keep using it because Shelia or terry says oh yeah this cost 4 bucks! I think the roux is at a good price hell its a bit lower than some aphogee products.Also it is up there with alot of drugstore items. I don't know when I have ever walked into a drugstore and seen cheap hair products other than V05? I mean the drugstore's are becoming the new department store prices. I bought a ton of shit months ago from Walgreen's and I felt personally I could have went to the hood hair store and done better. Like 7-9 bucks for olive type products. Hell I have a big bottle in the kitchen I add my own lol, But serious its like I do video and try things because of me I don't say have let me borrow a dollar so I can buy this shampoo. If everything worked for one person well lets just say it would be only 1 brand of everything. And a whole lot of jobless people and a boring world filled with 1 label on everything.

The whole reason behind it you have random bitches come on videos and say shit like I use this ugga bugga shampoo its 2 dollars and it works 7 dollars is to much. MMMm 7 dollars its your hair! You will go buy a bootleg hand bang for 100 bucks, you will go buy a real handbag for 3,000 to wear once and shampoo is high? Fucking kidding me. All the wigs and weaves and shampoo is high? You don't care about your hair enough to take care of it and you treat a wig like its GOD's will I don't think so. I like the glamour style of wigs too but I had to wake up! I once had the long thick hair and miss treated it like most women of color and I was raised the old fashion way a women Hair is her glory! Well why I think it is its women stricken with thinning hair, female pattern baldness wanting hair and we are cutting, pulling,shaving ours off! I buy what I can afford and yes I love sales bargains, dollar bins etc. But if I find a product that works for me I am going to use it don't care what it cost. This is my hair and I am gonna wear it!

Thanks for reading...
P.s. I know some lame ass is gonna read this and take it wrong, Yes I like nice things always have always will. To me broke means cant buy shit! Not oh I bought all this cheap shit but it was a dollar those add up too. That is why I stay my ass out of them stores. 89% of the time I was wasting money buying what others like and not myself. It ended up trashed giving away etc etc.

This Month Hair Update

2010-08-01T22:19:00.000-07:00

Hey Ladies I really enjoyed the Bun fun but I could not make it to the 5Th, So I am posting an update tonight. I did the bun under pony's false bun's, sock bun's. I even bunned under a wig/ half wig. The wig thing is I felt like someone could see the Ball in the back! Product update since using roux I see better results as far as my ends and how it feel. So I have found a cheaper product to use in my routine with my other Loves. Also a few weeks ago I notice when I missed a few weeks of my black tea rinse I seen a bit shedding. I also Had notice a tad bit dryness when I would go outside. so don't forget to use your protecting spray for your locks of hair.So I just wanted to show an update that I feel like the bun protected my ends and was a good way to oil and seal if that's what you like.
Thanks for reading!

Have you ladies been having a HHG? Month so far??
Thanks for reading....
Oh Yeah I was asked what Black Tea I use on my Hair and its By Earl Gray a Little Bit of information On this Tea It is a Premium!!!!

Blended Tea : Earl Grey Tea

The most popular tea blend in the western world derives its name from the second Earl Charles Grey, who was the Prime Minister of England in the early 19th century. According to one legend, the uniquely flavored tea was originally given to Earl Grey as a gift from a member of the Chinese government to thank one of the Earl's men for saving his son. Lord Grey enjoyed the tea so much that he gave the recipe to his tea merchants, who duplicated and distributed "Earl Grey's Tea" around the world.
Earl Grey tea derives its distinctive taste from the oil of bergamot. This highly aromatic oil is made from the rind of the fruit of the Citrus bergamia - a small tree found predominantly in southern Italy. The flavor of a truly fine Earl Grey tea is dependent on the quality of the base tea as well as the quality and amount of oil used. We use only high quality tealeaves as the base for our Earl Grey teas.

Hair in the Front Pony in the Back!

2010-06-18T14:33:00.000-07:00

All week I have been working it out with protective styles with my own hair but today I was like let me wig it! So I tried a lace front! Then another and another one! blah blah blah It was like this one is to hot! This one is too curly! This one is just right but it looks Nappy! LOL Then I moved to have wigs and it was like Hell Nawll Because you haven't dyed your hair black! So My brownish hair didn't match the 1b/30 at all. So then I tried running a old mascara through the front to make it blend! No No NO!
So I just ended up rocking a ponyTail and whipping my hair back over it looking like a fake Mohawk!n the pic's you cant see how brown my hair is But its Brown ass Hell compared to the pony! Its not bad in doors But in the sun it shows! I think I will take a hat just in case LOL.
