One year Strong

Two weeks ago I blew out and flat ironed my hair just to see where I was at length wise. This is my second time flat ironing my hair since going natural. Here is where I am at today :

 

I'm little pass neck length, which is surprising to me because I was very scissor happy. So, I can only imagine where I could of been. But there is no sense in crying over spilled milk. I can't wait to see where I am next year (I'm going to hide the scissors this time).

Quick, Simple and All Natural

Is that pesky zit getting on your nerves...get rid of it over night. Most naturals have a stash of essential oils in their possessions. The next time you get a pimple grab your bottle of tea tree oil and add a dab of it on the zit. In the morning your pimple will be gone, you can thank me later  =)

Benefits of tea tree oil

                                                      

• Antiseptic/ Bacterial properties--a general disinfectant that fights bacteria
• Clean wounds--dissolves pus without damaging the tissue
• Heals the skin--encourages the formation of new scar tissue.

One that caught my eye was the sale over at Silk Dreams Hair Care for Valentine's Day...25% off. Plus, Jorien introduced her new line of products called Mocha. Check out the detes below:

Coffee Break

Time really does fly. It's already the middle of March and I have only done one post. I have been super busy with school and work. I will be back next week with a few product reviews, tips and tidbits. Until then be blessed.

Drum roll please.....

 Congratulations hun, your poem was very inspiring to naturals, transitioners and those toying with the idea to go natural. I loved it. Thanks for taking the time submit your entry. For those of you missed it, here is the winning entry:

I speak the language of love through the coils of my hair,
I learned the virtue of patience through its tangling snares,
The love that has grown throughout my natural love affair,
Is a love slowly declared and wasn't always there

Going thru the motions of an unconscious scissor showdown,
I didn't realize the effect short hair could have on me,
A continuous hassle of a five month throw down,
Caused me to question if I was ready for this mentally,

Tossed into an evolution I never saw coming,
Fitness, to skin care, to nails and fashion,
These things was something that I always kept running,
And never thought they would end up my passions

Three years later, there's a mane in the mirror,
Evolution is as bright as the vision is clearer,
The girl I would dream about being in the past,
Is finally standing before me at last.
