Braid & Curl On Natural Hair

Happy Tuesday everyone! So I wanted to revisit some styles from my transitioning days and decided to try out the twist and curl again.

It looks great on natural hair and if you are transitioning, this is a perfect style.

I’m sure you have all heard of the various methods for caring for and maintaining your natural hair. Many of these methods have been well received by naturals looking for ways to keep their hair as healthy as possible. And there are many who believe these methods are another part of the endless unnecessary procedures we do to grow our hair. Whatever side of the spectrum you hold, it is important to follow what works for your hair and what your lifestyle can maintain. 

Happy Mother's Day!!

Today has been an amazing day! I spent the day with my mom and the rest of my family this weekend and it was an awesome weekend. I hope you all got a chance to spend time with the ones you love and surround yourself with positive energy and lots of laughter. To all my mothers, I hope you enjoyed your day. You are truly godsends to the world and a day isn't enough to show our appreciation. You are magnificent,  awesome, wonderful, amazing, and all the other words that mean great. And to my mom, who is all of those words and more, my heart is filled with joy knowing that she is my mom. I don't know what I did in this life that I was blessed with her as my mom but I'm grateful. And to my sister who is the second greatest mom in the world, I see firsthand how hard she works and how much she loves her kids. And if she doesn't hear it  enough, I respect her so much as a mom. She is my shero! And one day I hope to be as great of a mom as my mom and my sister. So again, happy mother's day ladies; you deserve all the love you receive today and so much more.

My mom!
