Stop jumping on every natural hair trend. That "natural hair guru" does not have your hair type, and that wash and go is not for you, sis. LOL! Here are some popular natural hair care tips and tricks that DID NOT work for me. (And let me add that just because it didn’t work for me, ...

There’s something about thick hair that makes every woman want to drool. And women with thick hair want thicker hair. What kind of sick game is this? HA! Well, let me tell you something. 🌱 Thick hair comes in two parts: the thickness of your individual hair strand (coarse or fine) and how many of those ...

Ask any natural-haired woman with kinky hair, and she’ll tell you tales about her shrinkage. It can be the “make or break” of a good hair day, and it can be an annoying reality on wash days. For me, shrinkage varies all around my head. I would say I have about 50% shrinkage in most areas ...

Before I had kids, I thought worrying about hair was a “girl” thing. Wash days, detangling, barrettes, the fuss… I could do without. It’s one of the reasons I wanted boys, actually. I thought they’d be carefree, easy-going, fun and provide minimal clothing and hair maintenance. All except for the minimal hair maintenance has proven to be ...

Hair salons are closed, nail salons are closed, eyelash extension parlors are closed, day spas are closed… how are you ladies holding up? LOL! I see memes floating around the internet about how women are going to look like broke bald eagles after this whole #StayHome initiative is over, and that got me thinking about my ...

That horse-drawn carriage of a silk press has turned right back into a pumpkin. Well, that would be insinuating that my natural curls are subpar. Let me rephrase that. I’m basically trying to say that my hair is 100% back to its kinky state after having a silk press. It has been an emotional rollercoaster getting ...
