Taliah Waajid's World Natural Hair Show is this weekend April 30th-May 1st, will you be attending? <br />
There are several events planned this weekend for attendees, with the most popular one taking place Friday April 29th, Curly Girls Rock!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWCTl5N7r5Q5oAkzjRigNOhgQfXNLiIQoz69FRVFWRDzg5cM1DvcMmo0f40auWhzuyd1EE4NjEHSAKa3luS_GNSsL6DD_ZEmG0gE42KqcBi3zHNqhOulHejr40c6ojwK6lcZhWofdeNV4/s1600/cgr.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"><img border="0" height="200" width="157" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWCTl5N7r5Q5oAkzjRigNOhgQfXNLiIQoz69FRVFWRDzg5cM1DvcMmo0f40auWhzuyd1EE4NjEHSAKa3luS_GNSsL6DD_ZEmG0gE42KqcBi3zHNqhOulHejr40c6ojwK6lcZhWofdeNV4/s320/cgr.png" /></a></div><br />
We hope you got a ticket as the event is now sold out! We both attended last year. We met so many Curly Girls, stylists and business owners! It is a great networking and social event! <br />
<br />
I will be posting additional meetups throughout the week so stay tuned.<br />

Yes it's been a minute and we apologize! Work, school and life have kept us both busy. As the school year winds down I will be gearing up for more posts, tutorials and product reviews, promise:) Anywho.... after a long weekend of travel I'd almost decided not to attend this event, but I am so glad I did! Not only did I get to meet and chat with the owner of Darcy's Botanicals, I got to chat with Telise the official stylist and trainer for using the product line. <br />
<br />
I also ended up what? Winning some products:) Yes I am still on a roll! I won the Avocado and Plum twisting creme and the Madagascar Vanilla styling creme. All attendees received a sample of the Styling Creme which I love as well. I have twisted my hair twice with the products and have gotten great results both times. The salon I worked in began using/selling the products after I'd gone back to school in August, so I didn't receive "official training" from the company. However, one of the stylists gave me a brief introduction to them and of course I played around with them:) The Peach Kernel hydrating milk was my favorite at the time. The Juicy Peach Kernel Nectar and the Revitalizing Spray will be my next two purchases coming up soon:)<br />
<br />
The owner answered tons of questions and talked about the differences in the products chiefly with some being water-based and creme-based and the differences resulting in those. Telise followed up with styling three different looks: a twist out, bantu-knots, released into an elegant style and a wash and wear style. She even helped my "other mother" find some products to work on her natural roots and transitioning ends! It was a great experience. We are so happy that the owner of Sage put together the weekend of events for Sage's anniversary:) Be sure to check out Darcy's Botanicals at <a href="http://www.darcysbotanicals.com"></a><br />

Shea Moisture products are now carried at Walgreen's and they are currently having a buy one get one free sale until 4/2. If your neighborhood Walgreen's doesn't have them in stock, get an ad, and take it to Target for a price match! I have the coconut and hibiscus smoothie in my hair today and my hair feels marvelous! Try it, you can't beat the price especially for natural ingredients!RCOAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16608426721834569250noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5988474642850696413.post-25815544341843955552011-03-23T16:21:00.000-07:002011-03-23T16:21:43.966-07:00Laws "Lady Hip Hop" Official Music VideoHi Curly Girls check out this video by Laws and let us know what you think!

Sorry this post is late reaching you, but life has been happening:( Curly Nikki was in Atlanta for the Bronner Brothers Show and she hosted at Meet-Up at Livingston's Restaurant near the Fox Theater here in the city. It was great meeting her, seeing baby Gia and meeting/seeing so many natural curlies in the city! Here are a few pics from the event. Michelle Breyer, owner of naturallycurly.com, as well as NikkiMae of naturalchica.com were also in attendance at the event:) Stefanie will add more pics from the event:)<br />
<br />
<br />
Hey you all! I had a photo op with Nikki, Mae, and one of the first Youtube vloggers that I watched when I went natural, Heather! She and I were so excited to see each other, almost knocking people down trying to hug lol! It was great to actually meet in person.<br />

This was a discussion I saw online and was very interested in the answers. Many people felt that those styles were simply styling options, while others felt those styles represented discomfort with natural hair texture. There were also claims that stretched styles are lifesavers because shrunken hair results in tangles and is a nightmare to detangle. Being a member of hair blogs, I have definitely read my share of "Curl definition" threads where people are trying to figure out how to define their curls (existent or non-existent) and on many occasions people would come in and state that those people needed to embrace their hair as is and stop trying to make it something that is wasn't (curly). Do you think that people who constantly wear their hair in twist outs, rod sets, extensions, etc... are not embracing their natural texture/pattern or they just want variety?RCOAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16608426721834569250noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5988474642850696413.post-55607387523391891342011-02-03T18:26:00.000-08:002011-02-03T18:26:22.951-08:00Sofn'free GroHealthy Line Product Review<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">This post is for all the Real Curly Girls on a budget!!! While listening to Napturalite Radio (<a href="http://www.nappturaliteradio.com/">http://www.nappturaliteradio.com/</a>) one Sunday evening I entered a giveaway. Much to my surprise I WON!!!! I had no idea what products I would get and honestly, I wasn’t familiar with Sof’N’Free’s GRO Healthy product line. I broke open the Strenghtening Crème, Triple Layer Growth Oil and Daily Growth Lotion to moisturize and prep my hair for a dry twist out.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I was very surprised at the ease in detangling, as well as the extra curl factor I experienced upon applying the product.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span><img align="right" alt="sofn'free" border="0" height="105" src="http://www.mmproducts.net/images_npl/SNF_GroHealthy_Logo190.jpg" width="190" /></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">To ensure that this was not a fluke, I used the products on a client’s hair the following week. After shampooing the client’s hair with Shea Moisture’s Moisture Retention shampoo, I added Sof n Free’s Really Deep Conditioning Treatment.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The client began to ask what I was applying as soon it reached her scalp. The tingling feeling let me know the conditioner had penetrated the hair shaft and was now working its way to her scalp.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I loved the softness the deep conditioner provided before she even got under the dryer for deep conditioning.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We weren’t surprised, but were satisfied with the great results!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After rinsing with cool water (to close to cuticle) I added Sof n Free’s leave in conditioner and blew the hair on a cool setting to prepare for a dry twist out.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">From this point, I added the Triple Layer Growth Oil and the Daily Growth Lotion and began twisting the hair.

So evidently the creators of Mixed Chicks decided to join in on the fuqqery and posted #team lightskinned<br />
on twitter as a "response" to this party. Really? Did they think that was very business savvy or smart? I do not condone any hierarchies that are divisive amongst the black community. Whether it's hair texture, skin tone, SES, there are a plethora of things out there to divide us but one would hope that business owners who benefit from black consumers wouldn't cosign and subscribe to such foolishness. Evidently this is not the case and the Mixed Chicks owners hopped on this ignorant bandwagon. I have purchased their deep conditioner before and liked it but they will not get anymore of my hard earned money.

This conditioner claims to soften and moisturize your tresses. The directions state to leave in for up to 5 minutes or for a deeper treatment, use plastic cap and sit under heated dryer for up to 10 minutes. I chose the deep treatment route and used my heated bonnet for about 10 minutes. As I was applying the conditioner to my hair, I was skeptical of the results because the product was not making my hair feel good upon application. After my timer went off, I proceeded to rinse the conditioner out with cold water. My hair was HARD!!!!!! I really do not like how my hair felt, it did not feel softened nor moisturized. Overall, I would give this product a thumbs down. Many of the ingredients are not natural, the front of the container boasts the use of jojoba oil, apricot, etc... but of course those ingredients are far down the list. The dominating ingredients are cones and alcohols. I think this may have a lot to do with my hair feeling hard because I typically don't use non-natural products. I definitely would not purchase this, nor do I plan to use it again.<br />
