My Purchases: Femi Spanish Wave Lace Front Wig and 1 from a EBay Seller

 

These are pictures of 2 Lf’s I recently got. The first one is shiny but the 2nd one is not. It’s just the flash…I will dust the 1st one off with some baby powder.

How do I dress in the dessert? Well today the temp is in the 100’s and it’s hot like you standing in front of an open stove! Today is Sunday and it’s a no collar day…yahhh! So I decided to wear this VS PINK shirt I had for almost a year. It’s nothing special, just plain. The color is not my norm. Anyway, after seeing so many ladies on the YT make hook up their eyes with eye shadows, I wanna learn too? L How do you know what colors to blend? As you can see today my eye shadow looks H.A.M!!

Review: Braided by Design

Okay so you all know I used to love braids. I started wearing them when I was in Afghanistan back in 2005 and wore them for like 4-5 years!  Some people asked how I was able to keep them up for so long. Well for one I did the common sense stuff like used a scarf at night to tie them up and I became friends with this girl named Jessica. Jessica is a beast with her hands! Please don’t get offended but she braids like she is str8 outta one of them African shops BUT her skills are unique. She does not braid supa tight like she is trying to leave her finger nail print in your scalp. J

 

Not only does she know how to braid good but she is into the hair care thing. Actually she is the one I give credit to for introducing me to LHCF and BHM. If she didn’t I probably would not have a strand of hair now. But back to her braiding skills…I remember I used to always think her hair was on point. She used to braid her own hair in micro braids in like 1 and ½ day or 2 days. It could have been quicker BUT remember we worked 12 hours a day, lol! I also remember when my wet and wavy micro braids tangled up on me late one night and she stayed up with me for like 2-3 hours detangling my hair carefully where I didn’t lose any hair.

 

Jessica is a beautiful, god fearing woman who will do anything to help anybody. Trust me when I say she has skillz…believe it. I was so excited when I found out she started braiding hair and started her own blog that I had to post this.  And to answer your question…YES I am promoting her. She deserves it and I know whoever head she does will be satisfied so I am 100% confident and truthful. If you are in Texas and want your hair braided in any style give her a call at 713-409-7420. Her contact info is posted here:

Review: Love My Hair Boutique - Vixen Indian Remy Ripple Curl

 

This is the full lace Vixen Indian Remy Ripple Curl that I ordered from Love My Hair Boutique a couple of weeks ago. Her name is Vixen and I think she is a 18 inch. Since its summer I am trying to stray away from the dark black hair color so I opted for color 2 but this one they sent looks like it got a couple of highlights. Its really pretty but I am not sure it goes with my skin tone. What do you all think?

 

On the website, the hair looked A LOT thicker on the picture than it acuatlly is. The hair is not thick at all and the density is just right! I am happy with it but not to much with the color. I may dye it a black. L Well tell me what your honest opinion is.

Champagne Lace Front Wig


I have not been posting in a while because we are no longer allowed to log onto blogger…..but I found another way J…so I will be posting more. Anyway thanks to muffinsmylovers I found out about RockeyTrading and I have been HOOKED every since. Those prices can not be beat! So I decided to try this lace front wig from them by Champagne called Jessie in a color 1. This hair is very light and pretty. My personal opinion is that it is not shiny…..hell from my experience it looks like REMY Hair (Color 1) is just as shiny as synthetic LFW’s when you add product. Am I the only one who thinks this?

My New Growth 17 May 2010


So i know...I know I havent been blogging on my hair alot. Why? Well after my set back with that darn stylist in DEMOPOLIS, AL I have been kinda upset and just wanted to hide my hair from myself. I hate to say it but I have been slacking ALOT on my hair. I think I went a week without moisturizing it! I know its a SHAME...but it stops here. I do not want to be sad when I discover my hair got shorter. Anyway....I have alot of new growth going on and these corn rows are screaming for me to free them....but I cant cause I dont know how to cornrow. As you can see from the pic...I tried. LOL.

They will just have to wait until July....Yup I said July! I will be headed home on vacation the end of July. I plan to make it to the Bronner Hair Show again Anyway here are the pics. Oh I been keeping it simple I have been using Nu Gro products to see how good they are. So far I love the conditioner and the deep conditioner. The shampoo is not too bad but it seems a lil drying. August of this year will I will make my 1 year without getting a relaxer! Whoo hoo. I will probably relax then but now I dunno....

I Bleached My Knots - 1st Time!!!

Today I finally received my bleach in the mail. As soon as I got to my room. I pulled out another one of Miss Wigs Shedding Mess and decided to give it a bath. I used this brand called Maniac. I think I got it off Amazon because it had some good reviews. On the package it says for dark brown hair to leave it on 60-90 minutes. I was too scared to do that so I left on it on for like 45 minutes because the unit is a color 1. I thought I heard somewhere that you can bleach the knots of color 1 hair???? Maybe I got the wrong info because this baby bleached really good! I'm so happy.... YAHHH! LOL. I will apply her soon and of course come back with pictures.... :) Also check out the video... Bleach Bath

Miss Wigs Update


So my glue lifted today and I decided 2 try a different glue since I am trying to find the right hold 4 me. This time I tried a brand that was given to me when I brought my LF wig in Bama. Its called Safi Bond. Its nothing special or anything that people have reviewed on YouTube. But so far I am giving this brand 3 and 1/2 stars because so far so good. Anyway. I still need alot of work on perfecting my hairline and NOT gluing down the baby hairs, lol. Practice, Practice, Practice! Anyway. I was tried of wearing the hair pulled completely back so I decided to see what I could do for a part. I didnt feel like messing with the Sally Hansen spray so I decided to use my Deep Dark MAC blot powder with a 212 Mac Brush and dap a little of it onto a part. It looks good and I think it can pass if somebody is Not ALL in my head. Dont you hate them folks that are so obvious when they try to see what's going on with ya hair? LOL Anyway here are some pics. One is with the flash and the other is without. The hair is actually not that shiny. Its the flash...
