The HairyKat Chronicles

First a shameless plug. If you need cute earrings to go with your beautiful hair check out www.katkreate.com Ok, let's get to it: HairyKats! I had a straight Hairmergency last night! First of all I always change my hair mid-week which should probably be something I  should leave for the weekends, but hey as the saying goes if you stay ready you don't have to get ready! and I stay ready for what the weekend brings! With that being said I made my typical midweek trip to Lux Beauty Supply. I already had in mind how I wanted my hair. I really liked that Boom hair I blogged about previously but when I got to the beauty supply I couldn't decide as there was so many choices and new wig head models sitting in front of me. So Sue (the owner) suggests this Italian Body Wave hair by Bobbi Boss. Her stance was that I've already tried Boom...why not do something new (and Boom is $40 bucks less per pack than Ms Body Wave! HUSTLED! lol).  Sue sells this hair for $67 a pack for 1...

Hey HairyKats. Notice I haven't been blogging about hair lately? Well to my defense I've had the same hair do for about 3 weeks now. I'm so proud of myself but no worries, I will be sporting a new do come this weekend, and of course you all will be the first in the loop. I do have some hair dibs for you before I go into the new tracklist. So my buddy Aja put me on to this hair treatment phenomenon which I have yet to try but can't wait to book my appointment. Its kind of funny because I always ask her to "consult" me before she books her hair appointments. She's not from l.a. and hasn't really found a "shop home" which is the beautician that hooks you up on the regular (by the way if you're looking for a stylist/shop home...check out the three ladies I've promoted on this blog, Ms. Kendall ( 310) 242 7175 , Ms. Regina (850) 325-0478 , and Ms. Jamelia ( 310) 734-6400 "...so anywho, I hate seeing my friends pay an arm an...

As a child I always wanted to be famous just because it always seemed to be nice for the world to know you, respect you, and love you....but in my adult years I've realized fame comes at a huge price...the same world that loves you will chew you up and spit you out at the second that you are not being the puppet they've expected you to be... With the deaths over the recent years, even days, of some of my favorite entertainers  I'm starting to think that fame is coming at a cost, life. Jay-Z's voice in the song Hollywood  rings in my head as he utters" it aint for everybody" is beyond a fact. You have to be pretty mentally tough to not spiral out of control at living your life under a microscope knowing that one false move will make or break you! You could walk down the street and chew gum minding your own business and it could be turned into a story of you humping a dog at a coffee shop and the sad part is the world will believe it without investigating or...

I'm saddened by the death of a music icon Whitney Houston (August 9th 1963- February 11, 2012). http://necolebitchie.com/2012/02/11/whitney-houston-found-dead-at-age-48/ I've always admired Whitney's hair and style from her modeling days to her acting and everything in between. In tribute to Whitney below are the HairyKat's post of our favorite Whitney looks! God bless her family, friends, and fans!

"Dear LA Traffic, I HATE YOU! You are selfish and unrelenting...."so what time are you trying to get there?" is how every convo starts because of you....if its 10 I better leave at 7 for a destination 20 minutes away according to google maps, and Shaquan...my gps lady! I dont understand you! You are mesmerized with not moving! What is traffic anyway! You thought Blue Ivy was a different yet symbolic name, I'm going to name my next child Traffic A'lways Latte  Franklin! Traffic -'the movement of vehicles, ships, persons, etc., in an area, along a street, through an air lane, over a water route, etc' You see that LA traffic in its own definition traffic requires movement! BUT NO NO! We're here on the 405 605 105 210 10 91 57 and all the other lotto numbers not moving, but in the parking lots of HELL.... The baby cusses now at the sound of a horn, there's a permanent stain on my rearview mirror of my middle fingerprint for all the driver...

Let's face it hair styling has evolved in a major way and well cutting and styling your hair with scissors is a little outdated. When I want an edgy cut I opt into my Tinkle (the brand) razor pictured below. Its by the same folks that make that little razor to clean up your eyebrows! If you're feeling a little professional I would seek out an actual razor comb but this little baby gets the job done... the razor does go dull after a about 5 or 6 uses...but hey its a $1.99, what do you expect?! (razor'd hair, then flat ironed into a flip, colors 1b solid and 30solid self- mixed) Try it out! Thank me later!
