I love God & my family. Some of my hobbies include; natural hair, music, fashion, and did I mention natural hair. I am the ultimate girlie girl; I love dressing up, doing hair, makeup, fashion and SHOES. I value family, life, embrace self acceptance and cherish the things God give me to steward. I am optimistic and also a skeptic. It cost absolutely nothing to be positive or negative, I choose to be positive. This blog will incorporate a mixture of things that I am most passionate about. The main focus is hair but I will throw other things in there every once in a while. Please feel free to comment and ask questions, I LOVE QUESTIONS! Since going natural I have been glued to my laptop, I enjoy networking with other naturals who share the same love and respect for natural hair. My goal is to reach waist length hair by Aug 23, 2013. Thank you for stopping by Peace & blessings. Happy growing!!!!

Product of the week: Extra Virgin Olive oil




Like many natural products extra virgin olive oil (evoo) has many health benefits, for the sake of natural hair I will discuss the benefits this oil have on natural hair.  EVOO is a great moisturizer ;  it strengthens, softens, cures dry scalp, reverse hair loss, promote growth and adds natural shine.

I have many uses for EVOO:

Deep Conditioner:
Working in sections I apply evoo to my hair after shampoo rinse, I pay close attention to my ends and not so much my roots so it doesn't clog my pores. Next I apply my conditioner then rinse with cold water to lock in moister.

Oil Treatment:
1oz of hot evoo applied directly to scalp, then I massage it into hair with finger tips (not finger nails) , I leave  in overnight then wash and condition the next day. This stimulates root growth, promoting activity and increased circulation, it also helps distribute the scalp's natural oils through the shaft of the hair, increasing moisture content.   A little goes a long way.
brand I am currently using

Sealer/leave in: 
I apply evoo as a leave in after my co washes it also serves as a sealer, this adds great shine to styles.
