The Fued is over!

By
Well Gel & I have been battling to be friends or at least associates for awhile now unsuccessfully.  I would continuously see my YouTube sisters rave about how their hair was defined or their curl was elongated but i couldn't duplicate it.  I recently did a review on the Ecostyler Moroccan Argon Oil Gel and the initial results were OK but then my hair dried out as it had done previously with other gels. I was left with 2 large containers of gel (Ecostyler Olive Oil & Argon Oil) in my bathroom.  I decided I would do a roller set and see how that would work.  I was pleasantly surprised! Here's what i did:

First I washed & conditioned my hair, then i put in a leave in conditioner..... in a plastic bowl i mixed olive oil and some 7 in 1 miracle oil....i separated my hair in 4 sections (just to make life easier) and began taking sections from those to roll....before i rolled the hair i used my fingers to apply my oil mixture then i added the argon oil gel...use cold wave rollers with paper over them i rolled my hair in a spiral....After i completed my entire head i sprayed it with the Shea Naturals Spray (see previous post) and put on my satin cap & when to bed....



In the morning, i sprayed my hair again and removed the rollers...my hair WAS NOT hard!!!! The curls came out beautiful!  I didnt seperate the curls (i may later in the week), i just pin some back & fluffed!  I finally have a successful way to use styling gel....let me know what you guys think!

Very moisturized!

Embracing a New Chapter: Adventures of a New Grandmother at 50!

By
  As the winds of change blow through my life, I find myself standing at the threshold of a thrilling new chapter: grandmotherhood! Yes, you read that right—I recently celebrated my 50th birthday, and to add an extra sprinkle of joy, my youngest son and his partner are expecting their first child. Cue the confetti and baby giggles! It's been over two decades since I last cradled a newborn in my arms, and the prospect of becoming a grandmother fills me with an indescribable mix of excitement, nostalgia, and a touch of apprehension. While I'm overjoyed at the prospect of cuddling a little bundle of joy again, there's no denying that navigating this new role comes with its own set of challenges and adventures. Balancing the excitement of impending grandmotherhood with the reality of supporting my adult children through this life-changing journey is a delicate dance. From offering sage advice and sharing in their joy to resisting the urge to overwhelm them with too much "h...

Embracing Grace: A Journey to Natural Gray Hair

By
  As the wind blows, so too does the passage of time, marking the transitions in our lives. One such transition that many individuals face is the emergence of gray hair. It's a journey that goes beyond just the physical changes; it's a journey of self-acceptance, confidence, and embracing the natural beauty that comes with age. For me, this journey began when I turned 50 in December 2023. It was a milestone birthday, and I decided it was time to bid farewell to the routine of hair dyeing and embrace the authenticity of my graying locks. Little did I know, this decision would spark a profound transformation, not just in my appearance, but in my outlook on aging. However, my decision to let my gray hair shine wasn't met with unanimous applause. I encountered a barrage of negative feedback, with many projecting their own insecurities onto me, expressing concerns about looking older. Yet, amidst the sea of doubt, one unwavering beacon of support stood by my side – my husband. H...

We share a Curl story- Jessicurl Review

By
Frofashionweek was an awesome event that gave me an opportunity to meet someone I didn't expect to impress me. It was the owner and creator of Jessicurl , Jessica McGuinty. I had seen advertisements in the past via email (curlmart) for Jessicurls but I dismissed it as not a product for a "kinky" curly lady like myself. I had no desire to try the product until I meet her.  Jessica was unveiling the new packaging for the product line at the event and she shared her experience of a love/hate relationship with her curls that I could relate to.  This wasn't a speech from a CEO to sell products it was a conversation with another sister that shared our story.   I was excited to try the products but I was still sceptical of a white lady with curls producing a product that could help this black lady with curls. During the event I received a package of samples that I am using for this review. I washed, conditioned, deep conditioned and styled my hair ...
