My Curls

I love to create an afro of curls with my curling wand, and today I took my time and did a thorough curling of my hair.

Before styling I always wet it in the shower and let my hair air dry. It's important not to touch your hair while it is drying, not doing so could result in a frizzy curl pattern. When dry, your hair will have better volume, and allows the curl to hold better than if flat ironed or blow dried.

I use this wand from Remington. I bought it at Target for about $30.00




I don't curl the whole strand of hair. I mostly curl the hair from the middle of the strand to ends, leaving the root with it's natural curl pattern.



I really loved the curls that I got from the wand today! I wish I could make this last a few days, but I sleep way to hard!

Hope everyone had fun today watching the game!

Blue & Cut





I love Katy Perry's new haircut and color. Even though her hair is blue, everything about her look says chic.

I am really loving this haircut below, and I would LOVE to do it on someone. So far there has been no takers! Oh well, maybe when Spring comes people will be into it.

Spring, Where Art Thou?

I have been working out EVERYDAY, and my inspiration is to look good in the spring and summer seasons. It sounds weird but between the months of November to December, I allow myself to gain like 15 pounds, and then I push it all off when January comes around! LOL it's weird but whatever. I would prefer to be small all year round, but that's not how my cookie crumbles.

Here are some things I'm really into for spring...


Easy Tee's and Fun Easy Dresses

I'm gonna continue to work out so I can look right for Spring and Summer! Wish me luck!

Not Another Hairstylist

I am always dreaming about my future, and what my career has in store for me. I fantasize about one day being a true professional in everything concerning hair and makeup. I want to be THAT boss lady who is in high demand, and has earned a ton of respect. I love being surrounded by people who are interested in beauty the way that I am, and I love feeding off of their energy. So when I meet people who are hairstylists, it makes me sad when they don't seem to have any passion or integrity for what they do. It literally makes me reconsider why I do hair in the first place. 

I am determined to not just be another hairdresser in a dead end salon. I want to always have integrity and pride in the work that I do. Progression is going to be the theme of my career. I don't know where God is going to take me in this industry, but I am DETERMINED to not just be another hairstylist.
 That is all.

Gray Hair

Kelly Osbourne was seen with gray hair recently and I must say that I like it! I read in an article that Kelly hates her hair, but I still think that this look is cute. 

 I believe that you have to own this look. There is no way you can wear platinum or gray hair and act like you're on the fence about it.

Hopefully she grows to love it like I do, and rocks this look a little longer.








I know this isn't gray it's platinum, but I love the hair color so much!

Oh Kimbella!

I am a big fan of Love and Hip Hop! I must admit, when Kimbella first came on the show she wasn't my favorite. However, as the episodes rolled on Kimbella started to become one of my favorite cast members!

Her golden locks are the reason for this post. 











I love how she isn't afraid to change up her look. She goes long, short, curly, and straight, and it ALL works!

Edris!!!



Sissypoo!!

Check out my sister's hair after I trimmed her ends and styled her mane...



She got the name wrong, but hey what can you do!

Hmmm.....

I've been thinking about doing something a little different with my hair, and when I saw this picture the wheels in my head started turning...


Scatter Brained

This is another scatter brained post...bear with me.

Ok so I have a photo shoot coming up that I am doing for my portfolio. Since I started cosmetology school I realized that I would love to be a MUA (makeup artist) along with being a hairstylist. I got my concealer palette from coastal scents and I love it! It shows up great in pictures and that is what I need!





 



I'm quickly become a huge fan of fur. I saw Kim K. in this blue fur coat a few weeks ago and I just loved it.








I need these in my life





I did this mushroom haircut on my mannequin head, and I tell you this haircut is back!
