HOW TO GROW LONG BLACK HAIR

Is Long Hair Godly?

2011-06-07T11:09:00.000-07:00

I love this article! It's a wonderful read on the beauty of long hair on a woman... enjoy!

Here's an excerpt:

"....the reason for the woman to be adorned with long hair is that her hair is purposed of God to act as a natural symbol of her being under the headship of another. It is called a covering. It is a covering that is to be continually, night and day with the woman, reminding her that she was purposely created different from the man, and with the obedience of her life she is to fulfill a very different calling then the man, and to reflect different heavenly realities then what the man is to testify with his life. When a woman gives her heart to receive the truth and depth of this understanding this practice becomes her very glory. "

MAKE UP TIPS FOR HOLIDAY PARTIES

2009-12-22T20:29:00.001-08:00

Every woman has the potential to make or break their reputation during a holiday party. Soiree after soiree you have the opportunity to leave an enduring impression with co-workers, family and friends far beyond the New Year. Here are 6 make-up tips to ensure you look and feel your best!

TIP#1: GO GLAM!

There are few occasions where you’ll have an excuse to unabashedly look gorgeous at work without explanation. This is the time to look the best they’ve seen you all year.

Quickly dismiss any temptation to imitate the smoky-eye, nude lip visage resurrected in popularity by Kim Kardashian and Lindsay Lohan -- wear red! This season appropriate lip color speaks passion, confidence, elegance and joy all at once. Go for a classic vintage look and you will never regret your holiday photos.

Ultra long lashes are a necessity when exchanging up close and personal conversation in the dark. Think Marilyn Monroe, Dorothy Dandridge, Rita Hayworth, (you get the idea). Start with a thick line of liquid eyeliner drawn with a brush or felt tip. Condition and coat your lashes with primer and follow up with an industry favorite: Shu Uemura’s Ultimate Expressions mascara in black. Emerge a diamond in the rough with Giorgio Armani’s sparkly gold top coat from the 2009 Crystal Collection.

Tip #2: WATCH YOUR MOUTH

If you’re a suburbanite with southern roots like me and can’t resist the Rondele and lox, pack a toothbrush and pocket-sized mouthwash to make sure your beauty is not tainted by foul breath. And don’t forget to bring your lipstick- it’s the quickest way to refresh your look. It is also the most likely to need frequent reapplication after singing, dancing and dining. Fill in your lips with liner and foundation before you leave home and top with a matte lipstick. Revlon’s ColorStay Overtime Lipcolor is reliable brand but can be a bit drying so add a dab of gloss.

Tip #3: NEVER ASSUME YOUR MAKE-UP IS OKAY.

Don’t bother asking a likely inebriated co-worker, “Does my make-up look okay?” She can’t possibly know the shade of blush you perfected in your bedroom the night before and likely doesn’t care. Scout out the bathroom like a CIA agent the moment you arrive and visit it often for tooth interrogation.

Tip #4: KEEP YOUR NOSE CLEAN

Unexpected boogies can make guest appearances at the most inappropriate times. There is no sicker feeling than the moment after avoidable humiliation. Use your compact as a deterrent.

TIP #5: PACK YOUR HOLIDAY PARTY BEAUTY ARSENAL

Don’t leave home without a brush, a compact mirror, oil absorption papers (it’s reported that Sarah Jessica Parker uses the toilet seat covers to do the job) and a pair of cute flats.

Follow these tips and you’re sure to remain the belle of the ball long after the clock strikes midnight.

"FULL LACE WIGS" - WE CAN FINALLY BREATHE!

2008-07-03T21:56:00.000-07:00

Okay, so I've worn a wig once and found myself steaming underneath it. I endured the pain, but man I wish there was something light weight that I could rock when I don't feel like doing it.

Lo and behold the full lace wig! I've heard these bad boys allow you to breathe at their best are made of human hair lasting you years!

Here is a website of a sister who is doing her thing! She specializes in custom made wigs just for you: www.forgirlslikeus.com .

SWEAT AND PRESS DON'T MIX...

2008-06-08T21:30:00.000-07:00

It's 100 degrees in NY today and I have completely sweated out my edges! However, thanks to my girl Annunciata at GiAmor's salon in Harlem, I still can rock it next week due to her patience and love with my tresses.

Very little heat, small bantu knots, moisturizing creme to set.
This will last you 2-3 days.

TRUTH OR LYE?

2008-06-08T20:32:00.000-07:00

I've been exploring the internet for long hair success stories lately and I found an amazing picture diary of a girl who went from bald to flowing natural hair down her back (I mean really long) in three years!!!...I'm a bit skeptical because in the pictures the lengths vary so much, but I want to give her the benefit of the doubt because 1) if her hair products work I will be the first to recommend them 2) she'a a Christian. I'm going to chek out her product soon and tell you how they work. In the meantime you can find her on YouTube and on her website: www.healthyhairjourney.com. But one caveat, her hair is permed....:-o! It was so pretty though, it might make you want to be lyed on.

TIGHTER WAVES

2008-05-19T18:21:00.000-07:00

Here is a picture of me working at Hue-Man Bookstore in HARLEM. The curls are the result of small-medium bantus. Who knew the cam was on? LOL! For tighter waves use a leave-in conditioner, setting creme, or as a last resort - good 'ol grease!

SMALL BANTU KNOTS

2008-05-18T18:01:00.000-07:00

Here's a tighter bantu knot style. I'll wear this outdoors when I'm feeling artsy....

MEDIUM PRESS ON NATURAL HAIR

2008-05-17T16:48:00.000-07:00

I'm used to getting hair products for free or at a deep discount after working for some large cosmetic companies where it was my job to try out the product on my hair. So this makes it excruciating for me to fork out cash for more products, Despite the alluring the packaging, I really want my cabinet under the sink back. You know how it is, my fellow product/sample/collectors who can never throw anything away. Here is the result of product mixing (which they say you shouldn't do), and a medium press (lasts about a week).

NOT LIMITED TO LOCKS AND TWISTS

2008-05-16T22:47:00.000-07:00

Why does it seem that whenever I read natural hair care magazines, blogs, etc. they always have pictures of locks and twists? That's cool, but I want us to progress to where we know what to do with our own hair without manipulating it. I manipulate my own natural hair to obtain a "natural" kinky look, but who's got the word on caring for it just as is?

Some of my Youtube sista's have the answers to these some of these questions. Check them out on my video bar!

SOFT WAVES ON NATURAL BLACK HAIR

2008-05-16T19:29:00.000-07:00

This is a common look for me. The waves are a result of a simple process. Wash, Dry, Bantu knot. If you want longer curls, lightly run a pressing comb through the hair before twisting. NOT TOO HARD! You'll end up with a buzz cut in the front (like I've done twice in my life) or waves that drop faster than a bootie shake dancer.

NATURAL BLACK HAIR STYLES

BLACK NATURAL HAIR CARE, GROWTH, STYLES!

2008-05-12T16:38:00.000-07:00

Have you ever wondered how to grow long natural African- American, Afro-Carribean, Afro-Latina hair? If so, this will be an awesome resource for you!

I've had long hair all my life. It's been much longer in my youth, but I still have maintained quite a mane without chemicals - EVER!. I have worn my hair in countless straight and curly, and just plain frizzy aka "nappy" styles.

I adore my hair (as does my husband). People are always asking me how did I come about with such a long mane au natural without breaking down and getting a perm out of fustration.

This my blog is my intent to show women everywhere how to do the same.

Yes my beloved sistah's - your hair can will must grow!

Stay tuned....
