Relaxed or Not?

Some people are MAD at Jill Scott. Take a look at her picture below. Now what do you think, relaxed or not?

Personally, I think she had a date with a pressing comb/flat iron. I don’t think she got a relaxer, but I wouldn’t be mad if she did. She has every [...]

Get Bangin’ for Fall!

After reading several fashion magazines big September issue, I spied a few hair trends coming this fall. One of the looks that was in ALL of the magazines was bangs. Blunt, wispy, side-swept—I’m here to help you find the bang that fits your face shape.

 

Oval face shapes

Oval face shapes can get [...]

Don’t Get it Twisted

The winner of the joke contest is Nina D! Nina, email me your address so I can send your book. Thanks for everybody that entered on Facebook, but sorry folks the contest was only here on the blog. Okay, now back to our regularly scheduled program…

I know I preach about how much [...]

Sweat Off the Neck

It seems that there are a lot of ways to spell Unbeweaveable. It’s a spin on the word unbelievable—my main character Mariah is addicted to her weave and discovers an unbelievable family secret—hence the title, Unbeweaveable. I’ve always spelled Unbeweaveable adding the –e before the –able. But unbelievable doesn’t have the –e, so many [...]

Wigs, Wigs, and More Wigs

I’m still in lovely Florida and will be home soon to post pictures of my adventures. I had a lovely time with family, and didn’t worry about my book launch one bit. Well maybe two bits. I mean, who takes a vacation three weeks before their book is out? I do. And I enjoyed [...]

Color Me Bad

Have you guys seen Rihanna’s new hair color. It’s umm…a little bright. It brings to mind images of Kool-Aid.

  

I think because she is a musician she can get away with just about anything. Red hair, shaved head—anything goes when you don’t have to clock in at a nine-to-five. What do [...]

Go Janet!

I got so excited about this I had to post twice in one day! Have you guys seen Janet’s new haircut? She’s looking fierce!

 

 

I think it looks great. It really shows off her cheekbones, (one of her best features in my opinion). I know, I know, I’m [...]

The Brave Ones

In case you guys haven’t heard, Chrisette Michele has cut her hair. Again.

When Chrisette first came on the music scene she wore a shoulder-length weave. (Don’t ask me how I know. I just know.)

For her second album she started strutting her stuff in a much shorter ‘do.

I [...]

Your Signature Look

I’m on the part of my novel where I need to push myself past the hum-drum and get to the meat of the story so I can finish this book! I’m very close to the end, but I seem to be wasting time on little scenes, instead of getting to the crux of the [...]

Ciara is Addicted To!

Guess what’s the one thing that Ciara can’t live without?

Her hair extensions!

When Essence.com asked her what’s the one thing she couldn’t live without she said:

This may be very blunt, but I can’t live without my hair extensions! It’s the truth! I don’t want to wear my (real) hair all the [...]
