bob's a blonde


So I'm still a blonde and loving it but I got tired of the straight look. So I started stalking one of my favorite celebrity blondes for inspiration. Ms. Keri Baby. Her hair always looks amazing. She had a really cute bob looking blonde curl style going on so I had my mind set on trying it. It was so cute in my head.

I tried some new hair, its by Hollywood called Italian Wave (more of a wet and wavy) and an American Wave (more of a tighter curl) I chose color Honey Moon and mixed the textures. Italian Wave on bottom as a supporting role lol and American wave on top. I didn't want to have an entire head of curly hair. I was seeking less curl definition.

I was so excited for a new hairstyle. I washed blow dried deep conditioned yada yada put the hair in and boom looked like :




<<<<this guy :(

So I break out my scissors and my razor comb to start cutting the curls in a bob cut....it just went down hill from there. I didnt know what to do. The hair was going straight on me I thought maybe if I twist it overnight it would look cute. I mixed LottaBody with Conditioner and twisted my hair,  but then I woke up the next morning feeling like Ms. What's love go to do with it? I was freaking out.






I disliked it so much that I went and bought a wig to cover it. (I'm so dramatic about my hair lol) . But the wig was a no go...I ended up selling it! lol....Finally I went to see my favorite hair salewoman and she suggested this stuff: Its Bobo's Remi Morocan Argan Leave-In Conditioner



Its 10 bucks a bottle (I bougt two) you don't need much but its great to have especially if you are getting ready for the summer and want to keep your hair moist. Nonetheless I had to make a few more snips to make the style look a little better but this stuff is perfect for restoring curls. It smells good too.

After about 4 days of  working with it I finally came up with a style I could be comfy with.



And since its Keri Hilson's fault (lol) I got myself into this mess. Check out some of my favorite blonde Keri looks! She's so gorg!

How did the Cookie Crumble? My take on Empire

Image
The show Empire premiered tonight on Fox. It stars Taraji P. Henson and Terrence Howard. Terrence plays a music mogul Lucious working to build an Empire/Legacy for his children while being troubled by the transgressions of his past one of which, is Taraji's character, Cookie, his ex-wife being released from jail after doing 17 years on his behalf. He also struggles with the present state of his health ( btw please no ice bucket challenges for fictional characters! he has ALS), which is the driving force behind his ambition of creating a legacy for Empire. Veronika Bozeman gave us the opening vocals as an Empire Artist, and boy was it beautiful, even when she was made to sing it over! I found the show to be entertaining although I couldn't help but feel like it was a continuation of the movie Hustle Flow lol. I kid. Kind of, I think it was Terrence Howard's hair! But in all seriousness I'm elated to see so many shows starring African-American casts,...

Papa Scoob - Taking the Game into Overtime

Image
Its Overtime is The Official Mixtape release from Papa Scoob presented by the Outerspace Musik Group. Papa Scoob is an East Oakland Native/ Berkley raised lyricist, that has been gracing the music scene with his impeccable lyricism for the past ten years. The Its Overtime mixtape is filled with dynamic flows and metaphors over some of the top 100 billboard tracks with the incorporation of some interludes that capture the most pivotal overtime moments in recent sports history, symbolically signifying Scoob's resilience to the sport of the music grind and shaping his own game as an artist. I've known Scoob since he began rapping and I enjoy listening to him grow as an artist. He definitely doesn't need a hype man because he gets the momentum going with his energetic intensity over each and every track.  Despite his longevity I feel like this mixtape is his coming of age moment. I'm so very proud of his accomplishments and urge yo...

Single Mom Travels (it's kind of a long read, so grab a snack!)

Image
Well Hello There Readers! I've been on a writing hiatus but I've got the sudden urge to blog. A few weeks ago I was hanging out with my son and realized that as far as I'm concerned we have a pretty unique experience in terms of the way we go throughout our daily lives. I realize there's this stigma that as a single parent life becomes so limited and in many aspects this has proven true. However, I've also discovered my own ways to live and provide my child with a happy fulfilling life. There is nothing that can truly distract my child from the absence of his father, but as his mother I've vowed to make his childhood experiences as meaningful as possible in the hopes of presenting to society a well rounded, open minded, curious, fearless, adult. With all that being said, traveling alone and/or with your child are one of those single parent stigmas I was talking about. It seems as though as a woman I should live in fear of the world and somehow nee...
