New Twist For The Two-Strand Twist

It's well known that my favorite natural hair style is the two-strand twist. Well here is a hair tip for you that will add a little pizazz to your two-strand twists.
---- After twisting your hair, set it with rollers. The next day take the
rollers out, leaving the twist intact.

Hair Pics...

First let me say Happy New Year Ladies....

I haven't blogged since around Christmas and I hope that everyone enjoyed their holiday. Below are just some pictures of of my hair with different styles. I love rockin the two-strand twist, but every now and then it's good to switch it up. Lately I've developed a fetish for hair jewelry. Every time I'm in the store I can't leave without some type of accessory for my hair.






















That's it for now, let me know what you think and what styles you've been rockin with your hair.

Holiday Greetings....

Hello Everyone,

I haven't had an opportunity to post lately and I'm actually doing this one by via cell phone...gotta love this modern technology.

Anyway, I just want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas!! Throughout this holiday, while we are enjoying our family, friends and gifts, let us not forget that Jesus is truly the reason that we celebrate christmas. So while we're busy giving and receiving gifts, lets give more of ourselves to Christ and pray for more of His presence in our lives.

Once again, Merry Christmas and make sure you protect your hair in this cold weather.

Wear a silk/satin scarf under hats, use a good conditioner and moisturizer(shea butter, etc.) on your hair.

Peace and Love,

A Cute Hair Story.......

During the Thanksgiving holiday I was walking through the parking lot headed into the grocery store. I see this guy staring but I thought nothing of it, because I was focused on the list of things I needed to purchase. I see him again within the store, so I smiled, said hello and continued on my way.
Now I’m walking to my car and there is this guy AGAIN!! As he began to run toward me…I began to get my pepper spray ready for him. When he approached me he blurts out “Girl your hair has swagger! Sorry for staring, but your twists were bouncing all over place and your hair is so shiny.” I laughed and thanked him for the compliment, and then both went on our way.

So my question to you ladies….. Does your hair have swagger? Are you rock’n your style (long or short) with confidence? Share your hair compliments, I would love to hear them.


[Hair Swagger: Healthy, shiny hair, long or short that is rock'd with confidence.]


Peace and Love,

Examine Your Ways!

"Let us examine our ways." Lamentations 3:40 NIV

A guy rushed into a service station one day and asked the manager if he'd a pay phone. The manager nodded, "Sure, over there." The guy inserted a couple of coins, dialed and waited for an answer. Finally someone came on the line. "Uh, sir," he said in a deep voice, "could you use an honest, hard-working young man?"

The station manager couldn't help overhearing the question. After a moment or two the guy said, "Oh, you already have an honest, hard-working young man? Well, okay. Thanks all the same." A broad smile stretched across his face. He hung up the phone and started back to his car, obviously elated.

"Hey, just a minute," the station manager said, "I couldn't help but hear your conversation. Why are you so happy? I thought the man said he already had someone and didn't need you?" The guy smiled. "Well, you see, I am that honest, hard-working young man. I was just checking up on myself!"

If you're serious about walking with God, examine yourself regularly. Are you praying, reading God's Word and renewing your mind daily? How about your attitudes? Are they slipping? Your attitudes send a signal before you've said a word.

They're like traffic lights. Sometimes they flash red, which means 'stop, don't get in my way, I'm too busy to love, help, or care.' Sometimes they flash yellow, which means 'I'm touchy and out-of-sorts, I could go either way.'

Sometimes they flash green, which means, 'Let's go, I'm with you, you can count on me.' The Bible says, "Let us examine our ways...and...return to the Lord."

What needs to be examined regularly? "Our ways!"
