I'm back with another helpful tutorial!

In this tutorial I share the technique I learned called "finger shingling". I have been wearing my hair in this style since I learned the process. It is a easy style that can be worn shingled or as a twist out. As I've gotten older I don't have the time or the arm strength to spend hours and hours doing my hair. This look only takes about an hour and last for a week! I've found it sometimes hard to find styles to wear my hair in because it is so short. I needed a look that was low maintenance, protective styling, and would last at least a week. Not to mention look somewhat "neat" and "put together". The choices are limited because of shortness. While I'm in this in-between hair growth phases, shingling has given me a great option over just wash - n - go's. At this point my hair is still too short for two strand twist and corn rolls. Follow along with me as I show you how I shingle my hair and how easy and stylish it can be. I use this as my protective style. It is low manipulation on the hair. And can be worn in the style for up to a week or more...

Why I do it? Life as a first-time Blogger!

Image
When I first thought about starting a blog, I checked with a few friends and family members. I received mixed opinions about the whole things. Most of my friends and family thought it would be a waste of time. Most felt I wouldn't be able to reach anyone because of the volume of bloggers/vloggers out there right now. I wanted to help people in some way! I've had many life experiences and situations. I thought my life could be a lesson to some of what "not" to do with your life! Or maybe it would show someone that no matter what the circumstance we live on.. I also thought that those who read my blogs would maybe see a little bit of themselves through my stories. Mainly, I just wanted to reach as many people as possible and maybe through my stories I could help. Sometimes people feel alone in situations. They feel like nobody knows what they are going through.  As I was doing my research before starting my blog, I almost got discouraged! Why? The blogging market is...

My first wash-n-go on natural 4c hair...

Image
Follow along with me as I try my first wash-n-go. Having short natural 4c hair has it's challenges. One of the biggest challenge is styling you're hair. While there are many styles currently available to try, not all styles can be achieved on 4c hair type. After doing some research looks like wash-n-gos are easy! I wanted to find out for myself! They say the finger raking method is the easiest way to achieve a quick wash-n-go. So I thought I'll give it a try. I'm always looking for easy styles that last at least a week. And as I'm getting older I don't have time or strength for long drawn-out hairstyles. It's gotta be quick and easy for me! I want to look good without having to spend hours on my hair. Join me as I try my first wash-n-go using the raking method and see my results! Don't forget to like/subscribe/share my video.. Http://youtu.be/a4sJv9Jm0QE

My imagination let me down, again!

Image
How many times have you imagined something special? You had it all worked out in your mind! Every detail has been thought of and figured out! You just knew everything would work out. Why? Because you've already imagined it out a thousand times in your head... Only to have reality slap your well-thought-out plan right in the face!  All the thoughtful planning, for what? None of you're imangined thought ever became a reality! Sound familiar? Sometimes I wonder about dreams and imagination! In my experience they have never panned out how I thought they would, if it happens at all. Months of thoughts, dreams, and imagining, only for it to fall through the cracks of my mind! I'm not talking about big fantastic imangining. Like winning the lotto or getting rich overnight! I'm talking about real dreams that could come true! As I've gotten older, I've come to realize not all that we imagine comes into reality! No matter how we've thought it out or imagined ev...
