Kurly Beauty

MY 5 YEAR OLD NIECE IS LEARNING TO EMBRACE HER NATURAL KINKS & KURLS... SHE ASKED TO DO A NATURAL SHOOT WITH HE "TETE"... SHE ALSO ASKED TO WEAR AN AFRO FOR PICTURE DAY. I THINKS ITS IMPORTANT THAT WE TEACH CHILDREN HOW TO EMBRACE NATURAL HAIR, AND ITS BEAUTY. NATURAL IS HEALTHY!

MOST "INSTAGRAM" LIKES

ON THE WEEKENDS ESPECIALLY, I LOVE TO EXPERIMENT WITH MY HAIR. THE FOLLOWING ARE RECENT PICS OF MY LATEST STYLES...

On Friday, October 12th, I was honored to attend a beautiful wedding "Nedra Barksdale", owner of 'Rare Touch Hair Palace', my hair stylist of many years.... I decided to go with a natural look, and chose to wear a gorgeous silver dress to compliment my hair style! Fab Fab Fab

BANTU KNOT RESULTS

FOR PHOTO RESULTS PLEASE CLICK ON THE TAB ABOVE TITLED KURL CAM....

BANTU.KNOT.TWIST.OUT

I ATTEMPTED A BANTU KNOT TWIST OUT THIS MORNING @ 4AM. I USED ONE OF THE PRODUCTS IN MY REVIEWS "AS I AM TWIST CREME", AS WELL AS CANTU SHEA BUTTER MOISTURIZER. I PARTED MY HAIR BY HAND, AND MADE APPROX 12 TWIST. I TOOK THE ENDS AND WRAPPED THEM AROUND MY FINGER TO CREATE THE KNOT. FAIRLY EASY. MY HAIR WAS STILL DAMPED 10 HOURS LATER SO I SUGGEST MORE TIME FOR AIR DRY. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND HEAT, BUT IF YOU SIT UNDER A HAIR DRYER, PROTECT YOUR HAIR WITH A HEAT BONNET. HAIR DRYERS MAY ALSO REDUCE FRIZZ. ONCE UNDONE, I USED MY HANDS TO REDUCE VISIBILITY TO MY PARTS & ROOTS. I USED OLIVE OIL AS WELL.

Miley Cyrus new Hair Cut....Feroce(Fierce)

EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT MILEY CYRUS'S NEW HAIR CUT. THE MEDIA ARE EVEN COMPARING HER TO BRITTANY SPEARS, WHO IN 2007 SHAVED HER HEAD BALLED AND LIFE WENT INTO A DOWNWARD SPIRAL. I APPLAUD MILEY FOR DOING SOMETHING THAT MOST WOMEN FEAR DOING, CHOPPING IT OFF. THE 19 YEAR OLD MYLIE TWETED “LOVE my hair ❤ feel so happy, pretty, and free." WHAT SOME FAIL TO REALIZE IS THAT YOU ARE NOT YOUR HAIR! MILEY JUST LANDED A NEW GIG ON "TWO AND A HALF MEN", RIGHT AFTER SHE GRABBED EVERYONES ATTENTION WITH HER NEW LOOK. I HOPE THAT HER DECISION TO CUT HER LONG BLONDE LOCKS WILL OPEN UP AVENUES FOR OTHER BEAUTIFUL WOMEN OF DIFFERENT NATIONALITIES TO DO THE SAME. HAIR CAN SOMETIMES WEIGH US DOWN. LETTING IT GO CAN MEAN RELEASING THE PAST AND STARTING OFF NEW. YOU WILL GAIN A NEW WALK AND ATTITUDE! TRUST ME.....I HAVE. IT’S A NEW SCHOOL YEAR IN SESSION SO LETS SEE HOW MANY YOUNG DIVAS ARE INSPIRED. STAY BLESSED WITH BELFANM_NATIREL

'Ev and Ocho'... Domestic Violence is Never the Answer

THIS STORY WAS NOT SUPRISING AT ALL. I MEAN “EV” IS KNOWN FOR HER OUTLANDISH BEHAVIOR, BULLYING PERSONALITY, AND BEING OUTSPOKEN.  LAST SEASON OF BBW, WE WITNESSED HER JUMPING ON TABLES, BULLYING JENNIFER TO THE POINT OF TEARS. WE ALL SMELLED KARMA APPROACHING THIS HAPPY REALITY STAR, BUT NOT IN THIS MANNER.  WAS SHE REALLY SHOCKED TO FIND A RECIEPT FOR CONDOMS IN HER HUSBANDS VEHICLE? EV ALWAYS QUESTIONED HER THAN FIANCE'S ABILITY TO STAY FAITHFUL, SO THIS ONLY LEAVES ME WITH WONDERING WHY THE BOTH OF THEM RUSHED INTO THIS SO CALLED MARRIAGE. IF CHAD DID IN FACT TOUCH HER IN ANY PHYSICAL MANNER WHICH WAS AGAINST HER WILL CAUSING BODILY HARM, THAN HE DESERVED TO BE PLACED UNDER ARREST. I WONDER IF EV FELT AS IF SHE ACTED TOO SOON BY REPORTING THE INCIDENT TO POLICE; SEEING HER HUSBAND BEING DROPPED FROM HIS 1 YEAR CONTRACT WITH THE MIAMI DOLPHINS, AND VHI'S DECISION NOT TO AIR THEIR UPCOMING SHOW CAPTURING THEIR EXCLUSIVE WEDDING. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SHOULD NEVER BE A SECRET, SO THEREFORE I APPLAUD EVELYN FOR CONTACTING AUTHORITIES.  THIS COUPLE REALLY NEEDS MORE THAN COUNSELING, THEY NEED TO HAVE THEIR WEDDING ANNULLED. IT SEEMS TO ME, THAT THEY WERE DOING BETTER COURTING.  I OVERHEARD PEOPLE GOSSPIING TODAY SAYING THAT FOR "EV" TO HAVE A BAD GIRL ATTITUDE, WHY DID SHE RUN FROM A HEAD BUTT! THAT WAS OBSURD; NO ONE DESERVES TO BE ABUSED.  I REALLY THINK THAT “EV” FELT PRESSURED TO MARRY OCHO SO SOON, AS IF SHE HAD A POINT TO PROVE TO HER FOES.  IM WAITING FOR THE COUPLE TO MAKE A PUBLIC STATEMENT SUCH AS, WE’RE SEEKING COUNSELING OR IT WAS ALL A BIG MISTAKE. IF “EV” IS IN FACT PRESSING CHARGES, YOU GO GIRL! YOUR RATINGS WILL DEFINETLY INCREASE…. (OK) IM BEING SARCASTIC, BUT SERIOUSLY THOUGH, I HOPE SHE DOES GO THROUGH WITH IT.

If you're the victim of domestic violence, or know someone who is, you must report it to the police and the courts, who may issue a restraining order or incarcarate the abuser. Do not remain silent: Take these steps to end domestic abuse today.

TWIST OUT RESULTS

OVERALL, I WAS NOT SATISFIED WITH THE TWIST CREAM. I COULD HAVE GOTTEN THE SAME RESULTS WITH ECO STYLE GEL, OR A PRODUCT AT A LESSER PRICE. I WILL WEAR THIS TWIST OUT FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK, TO SEE IF IT LOOKS BETTER AT ITS LATTER STAGES. I PLAN TO REMOVE MY BUN AND WEAR MY HAIR IN A WILD STATE.

STAY TUNED :-)

PRODUCT REVIEW: AS I AM (TWIST DEFINE CREAM)

I ATTEMPTED TO DO A TWIST OUT WITH THIS PRODUCT, WHICH CONTAIN'SUNFLOWER OIL, CASTOR OIL, AND SUGAR BEET ROOT. THIS PRODUCT ENSURED THAT TWIST WOULD BE HIGHLY DEFINED, HELP PREVENT SHEDDING & THINNING, AND ALSO MINIMIZE FRIZZ. OK, I DID NOT LIKE THE RESULTS OF THIS PRODUCT. ALL THO ITS DAY 2, AND MY HAIR IS STILL TIED UP WITH A SILK SCARF IN 2 STRAND TWIST, THIS PRODUCT LEFT MY HAIR FEELING OILY & HEAVY. IT HAS A WONDERFUL SCENT TO IT, AND IT DID DEFINE MY KURL PATTERN AS STATED. I AM GOING OUT TONIGHT SO I WILL TAKE DOWN MY TWIST AND UPLOAD A PIC OF MY STYLE. THIS PRODUCT COST $22 BUCKS. I WILL NOT PURCHASE IT AGAIN, BUT I WILL REUSE THIS PRODUCT AND USE A SMALLER AMT TO SEE IF I CAN YIELD DIFF RESULTS.

HOME.MADE.DEEP.CONDITIONER

THE INGREDIENTS USED IN THIS DEEP CONDITIONER WERE; 1 BANANA, COCONUT MILK, PLAIN YOGURT, 1 AVOCADO, 2 DROPS OF TEA TREE OIL, 2 DROPS OF PURE JOJOBA OIL, AND HONEY. I BLENDED ALL OF THE INGREDIENTS TOGETHER. THE RESULTS OF THIS DC, LEFT MY HAIR FEELING SOFT SILKY, AND MANAGEABLE. MY HAIR WAS EASY TO DETANGLE AND THE SMELL WAS AMAZING. THIS DC ENHANCED MY KINKS & KURLZ

PRODUCT REVIEW: TALIAH WAAJID (Black.Earth.Shampoo) and Curly Curl Cream

I PURCHASED THESE PRODUCTS FROM MY LOCAL HAIR STORE FOR APPROX 7.99 A PIECE. I HAVEN'T TRIED THE CURL CREME YET, BUT I MUST SAY "THIS SHAMPOO IS BY FAR THE BEST I'VE USED SINCE GOING NATURAL". IT HAS A LIGHT BERRY SCENT, AND IS DARK PLUM IN COLOR. I SHAMPOOED MY HAIR 3 TIMES. THIS PRODUCT REVITALIZED MY HAIR, AND DEFINED MY CURL PATTERN TO THE MAX. IT LEFT MY SCALP FEELING CLEAN, AND HAIR LIGHT.

CONS- STAINED MY TOWEL WITH DARK SPOTS. OVERALL, WORTH IT FOR THE RESULTS.

ROPE TWIST... TAKE.DOWN!

I REMEMBER ALWAYS WANTING TO GET MY HAIR STYLED IN ROPE TWIST. SINCE IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY A FEW WEEKS AGO, I DECIDED TO HAVE THEM DONE. THE SYLIST USED 6 PACKS OF KANEKALON HAIR (4 PKS 1B & 2 PKS 33). I ENJOYED HAIR ON THE GO. NOT HAVING TO STYLE MY HAIR BEFORE WORK, OUTINGS, OR BED, I HAD IT MADE. BUT THAN, I BECAME BORED WITH THIS STYLE ONLY AFTER 4 WEEKS. ALTHOUGH I PLAYED WITH IT, ONCE WEARING IT IN A UPDO, BUN, POMPADOR, I EASILY BEGIN TO MISS MY NATURAL KINKS & GIRLS.  TODAY, I SPENT 1 HOUR IN FRONT OF THE MIRROR TAKING DOWN MY HAIR, ANXIOUS TO FEEL MY LOVELY  TEXTURE AGAIN..... AFTER TAKE DOWN, I WILL DO A REVIEW ON NEW PRODUCTS I'VE PURCHASED TO WASH, DEEP CONDITION, AND MASTER MY TWIST OUT! 'CHECK BACK N'
