Beautiful People use Afro Sheen!! LOL

So I picked out my hair after I took some braids out and was amazed at the length my hair had grew.  Singing "beauti-ful people use afo sheen" You remember the afro sheen commercial back in the day with the black lady with the big afro sitting all straight up like a statue.  Ohhh I found it LOLOLOLOL wow I found it. Check it out!

LoL okay so maybe I still have long way to go before I get a bubble like that lol. And they didn't sing the song at the end. This is soo funny! Stay tune for my version of this commercial lol. This is going to be fun! Anyway I love my hair.

A simple style

This I just something I did today. Then after I did it, I remember I did my second daughters hair like this when she was about 7 or 8 months old. She had a bush! Now that my hair has grown some I can do alot more with it. I am so ready to try new styles. Tis all! Got that one from my little sis lol.

Okay soo I thought.....

Okay so why did I think I was going to have  little bouncy curly's in my hair that hang at least to my ear. Soo not the case! I don't know what I was thinking. I forget I have n-a-t=u-r-a-l hair, it is not going to hang like permed hair until it is long enough I guess. I was looking in the mirror like.... "okaaay, why is it still sitting on top of my head" lol. However, I do like the do. That hair smoothie make your hair sooo soft.It actually feels like my girls hair when they were baby's. I was trying to think of another hairstyle to do it in, like an up do. I need some step by step tips and ideas. Anywho this is what I came out with.

Found a new do!

So it's been almost 4 months since my last post. I haven't really tried any new styles, Why? you ask? Well I haven't really been feeling this twa. I did not know how or what to do with it. My Sister Nikki has been rockin' her's with nubian pride! But I just wasn't feeling it. I wasn't going back to perms but wanted something different. So I thought I would flat iron it. So I did and I actually liked it. I felt like I had a perm. So then on Mother's Day my little sister had these little knots (in her hair lol) at the top of her head then a half wig on. She mentioned that when she takes them down, they make these little cute spiral like curls. So I said "hmmm I wonder can I do that while I have my hair straightened". Now yall know I'm still new at this, I went online and found out they are actually called bantu knots, (a little slow I know) But I said this is going to soo cute and easy. So this afternoon I bantuuud it up (I know I just made a word). I think I will leave it up for about 3 days and take it down. But I WILL NOT be walking around with these little knots on my head lol. Some can do it but in the meantime I got a nice half wig  that I can rock until reveal time. Coming soon to a blog near you lol. Check me out in about 3 days. Or 2.

I used Shea Moisture organic coconut & hibiscus Curl Enhancing smoothie. Thanks to my sister Nikki who is always finding new products.  I also used olive oil from my kitchen. Lets hope this works.

Posing in the Natural

A few pics to show off my natural

   So, yes I have been gone for a while. I am trying to get used to my new do. I have been wearing braids that I do myself cause I can't afford to pay anyone to do them. That's right. I am still not ready to rock the mini afro yet. Big ups to my older sister Nikki who has no problem wearing her twa(teeny weeny afro).

Big sis Nikki



I should have took pics of my braids. First I did micro-braids, which I will never do again because it took 13 hours. Next I did box braids, and today I just took out my cornrows and decided that this was a cute do for today. So this is me today. As you can see my hair has grown some since I did the big chop. Yayyyy!



Today
