BC Time!

It’s been a while. Blame it on my hair. It’s not behaving itself so I had to put it on a time out therefore I had nothing to write about. I could have written about the foolishness I see on a daily basis, but I spared you. You’re welcome.

Anyway, I’m here now and I have some news. My hair is growing beautifully! I haven’t straightened it out to know but I can tell.

This strand is from the front of my scalp and is about the length of a newly sharpened pencil.

(this picture was taken at work so i had to utilize my simple resources)

There is just one exception. There’s a spot dead center that is not budging. I noticed it back in September after I took out my birthday weave and now it’s December and there’s hardly any growth. It is no longer than an inch and constantly irritates me. I’ve done everything from massaging it with coconut oil to moisturizing it with shea butter, and even clarifying it with tea tree. Nothing is working (fast enough). But I have the ultimate solution.

BIG CHOP!!!

Yes, I'm going to start all over again and I'm going to do it right. You all know how I started with regular products and weave caps. This time my hair is going to be treated like royalty. I'm joining MopTop's Challenge to keep me focused. Plus I get to look like Chrisette!

Dr. Miracle's Model

We all need change. In my case, I’m addicted to it. I am always looking for something new but not necessarily doing it all the time. Usually fear kicks in before I can make a decision. Now a couple of posts ago you may have noticed that I was looking at some hair styles that may be a little extreme from my standard ‘fro. At the moment I have a weave installed. Wrong move in a sense because I’ve been loosing sleep over it since it’s so tight but also a bad move because it’s tearing my edges to pieces. The damage is taking such a toll that when this weave come out my hair is going to look like a Dr. Miracle's commercial. So now I’m seriously contemplating it. I want to join the Chrisette Michele team.

This girl I’m subscribed to on YouTube, CHEVerlyHIllz, has done everything to her hair. It’s a similar story to mine of frying, dying, blowing drying, and anything else known to damage your hair. Finally she went natural with a big chop a little over a year but unfortunately experienced some heat damage. Now she’s decided to BC once again and realizes she like its way better.

I see so any with the 360° Caesar and I have yet to see someone that can’t pull it off. Amber Rose, Chrisette Michele…They did it.Should I?

Change is Gonna Come

My Hairspirations

We all should have them. As a female, I think we all have the issue with being happy with our hair. I know when I finally achieve a style that I’ve been wanting forever, I somehow see something else that I just have to have. So for right now, this very moment, here are my hairspirations.

Chrisette Michele

Can't a girl just dream?

Yaya Dacosta

I know this is a huge weave, but still.

Hollis Wakeema aka Baby Face

Super Cute. Looks like a simple curly twist out.

Jasika Nicole

I guess i just need more time to gain this length.

Riding Dirty

Dirty D and I were riding around Brooklyn yesterday. Alotta people don’t like riding bikes (inny @ Domo), let alone have bikes, but it’s kinda nice. Compared to driving, you actually get to see your surroundings. You’re not road raged, never stuck in traffic, or even risking going to jail over vehicular manslaughter, which I’m always close to committing. Stupid pedestrians.
We started our day not necessarily knowing where we were headed but we made our way. Ultimately, we ended up at the Martin Luther King Jr. Concert Series to see Ms. Chrisette Michele. She was sooooo good. Can you believe she was actually the opening act and not the main attraction? How rude. I could have enjoyed her the whole night but I guess they had already paid Musiq Soulchild, so he ended up coming out too.
Anyway here are some pictures.


Ready for the day!


What are dads for?


Got Don and ready to go!


Had to make a stop at Ruthie's. Always time for that.


Now finally at the concert. Go Chrissy!


Satisfied customers.


Ending on a good night.
