Again and again

December 31st... Time to make decisions on what you want the upcoming year to bring and reflect back on this past year.

What I wanted was to become the next big natural hair guru with this blog. I dunno what I was thinking. What I needed was an outlet, a way to express my interests and personality. If anyone asks what this site is about its a mix of things: pop culture, music, beauty, fashion, hair... It's me.

It's been more than 8 months since I've posted anything and I've missed this side project of mine so I'm planning a return to blogging through a giveaway. To reintroduce myself I decided to give some lucky follower a pair of gold cap toe leopard print shoes (sz 9) similar to Sam Edelman's Jordie.

Good luck! Welcome! And here's to an amazing New Year!

Challenge Accepted

Every hair blog I turn to mentions a healthy hair challenge every so often.  And while I strive for healthy hair I just don't have it in me to participate.  But then I turn to YouTube and get super jealous of the girls on there.  Sometimes I feel like my hair is at a standstill.  It's been 2 and a half years since I chopped my hair off and (yes it is probably due to shrinkage) it just feels like it stopped.  Ugh.  Now I admit I have my moments when I'm just not in the mood.  When I put braids or twists in I almost never moisturize.  Actually protective styling for anymore than a month tends to do more harm than good for me.  Since I clearly know that I'm the culprit why am I complaining right?  One of my goals this year is to take better care of my hair.  So I've armed myself with a monthly subscription to curlBox (just an excuse for my inner project junkie) and am devoted to taking care of her because she deserves it.

Here's my own personal informal hair challenge.
