Sense of well being

I just wanted to take a moment to say good morning to everyone! I am actually feeling like I need to reconnect with myself in some kind of way. And it just made me realize the importance of taking care of yourself - mind, body and soul.

I believe it is all connected. Having good health is very connected to being naturally beautiful. Naturally beauty often comes from inside out. You can go without the make up, the fancy clothes or the cute jewelry. But if you are beaming with happiness and confidence because you feel good, healthy and strong - that is a beauty that not many can resist or deny. So I am gonna take some time to reconnect with myself and do a little bit of emotional, physical and spiritual healing. Evaluate my health and see what I can do to improve my overall sense of well being. I hope that you will all time time out of your lives to do the same of yourselves. Find out what you need to get that balance, whether its a healthier diet, spending more time enjoy nature or just finding some time to relax.

Peace, Love and Happiness....

How do you wash your hair?

This is actually an old video on you tube - but one of my favorites! It's called "How do you wash your hair?"



This is just a reminder of some of the really rude looks I get because of my hair - from almost every nationality. Or the very silly questions I get, because people are confused. For the last time - No they are not braids!!! Yes - my hair is clean. I wash it ALL THE TIME.. with Shampoo, just like you. Loc's are beautiful. It's sad when people pre-judge because of something new or something they don't understand.

New Trend ?!?


Singer Tierra G's new style reminds me of the new do that Cassie is sporting. Is this trend coming back? I remember this was popular for a minute when I was younger. But I could not imagine cutting into my loc's for this drastic look.
What do you think - Keep or? Or Leave it alone?

Easiet Style Ever...



One of my favorite hair styles is a really easy hair do. Most of you already know how to do this. I like it several reasons, some being that it gives my hair volume and it feels more lightweight when my loc's have a curl or wave to them.

To create this look - wash, wet or spritz your hair. Be sure to use some sort of leave in conditioner or setting spray when wetting your hair. Braid your hair in sections (I like to braid 6 loc's at a time) . The bigger the braid, the bigger the crinkle/wave. The smaller the braid, the smaller the crinkle/wave will be. I like to let my hair air dry, but if you have a salon style hood hair dry at home, you can dry your loc's using this. Once your hair is completely dry, take the braids down. This crinkle/wavy style will last over a month or until you get your hair wet again. The great thing about this style is great wavy look.
