Recently I started a new job. In this new job, I guess I expected more than what I got or am getting out of it. But, all-in-all, I am grateful for this new position because it has helped me broaden my horizons and learn new things that I hadn’t learned before. But one must question the fact of, are you truly in the profession that you always dreamed of being in? It just makes you wonder will you…

Decisions, Decisions: From natural protective styles to a New DREADLOC journey

I have been natural for over 4 years now. My time is spent attempting to work while being a mother to three children. I am a master cosmetologist but I find myself divulging more in making sure others look good while I tend to struggle with day-to-day life.

I need something easy and that does require a boat-load of maintenance but that can be styled and done when I need it done.

Hence, my…

What I like to wear-- I love Adidas shoes and clothing! You should try it if you have not already

As a mom of three I tend to gravitate towards gym clothing more so than not. I do own other clothing but for comfort and ease of movement I like to wear a lot of active wear.

These are all valid and strong questions that all have different answers. Keeping up with the Jones’s was never something I aspired to do. You know it hard enough trying to be yourself without the…

It is hard to tame my edges! I can be slick for about a good 10 minutes then when I walk out the door… BOOOMMMM! The edges are a mess!

Well, in trying different products, I have found that two so far suit my fancy! And one in particular; I have just about fallen in love with! I love the pink one and red! They smell awesome!!

If you use them with fresh, clean edges/hair then it will work…

My life with a second grader!!!

Having chidlren is wonderful and stressful all at the same time. My oldest is a second grader now. I remember when I just had him, back 2011. I was a young, unmarried mother but me and his father were still together.

The whole thought for both of us was HOW? How are we going to do this. But, needless to say…IT GOT DONE!

But, now, we are at the phase of dealing with a second grader. You…
