Solange Knowles

I am so trying this for tomorrow!


I'm not a big fan of her but I have taken notice to her hair this past year.  I'm not sure if you have or have not noticed Solange Knowles and her hair this past year but I have and I love the styles she has been experimenting with.

From when she cut off all of her hair, a move I consider very daring since I never could do something like that. (not afraid to admit it either)

Here she is when she first cut her hair

Here she is where i'm assuming a year or so later dj-ing.
(im not sure as to whether or not that is all of her hair)
After awhile she started rocking these braids 
(which I love by the way, I want to get them done but I just have to find some one willing for a good price)

I never 'went natural' but just stopped perming, I did it about a year and seven months ago, I could brag about how liberated it made me feel but thats really what its about, I stopped perming my hair because I had seen the damage it [the perms] were doing to MY hair. Now two of my three sisters perm their hair and one sister's hair is thriving while the other's half way down her back. To each her own I guess.  

But what I will say is that I have had some type of experience learning more about my body and hair through the use of natural products. The affects have been marvelous! Trial and Error is my best method by doing so I learned that while Olive oil products are great for my hair its very bad for my scalp and that raw shea butter is fine for my eczema prone skin  but not the best for my scalp. (weird, I know) 

Bottom line, All I'm saying is to each her own..

Ugh! Girly Feelings...







Names have been changed to protect thy heart.
Some days I honestly hate being a girl especially the ones where I'm feeling particularly girly.

By that I'm talking about in means of love, cold hard crushes, sweet glances with passer-by's and the rare on again off again relationship.

This time cupid didn't shoot me with an arrow, he hit me with a rock... a big one.
Just as I started to recover from the last rock Cupid threw at me, he picked up his sling shot and launched another (Angry Birds Style) and it hit me right in the chest with such a force that It gave me such terrible side effects which included an accelerated heart rate, dilated pupils, phantom smiling, and an over indulgence of daydreams and giggles.
Sad..
It's sad how I feel about you, I might even call it pathetic. You say it's because I deserve better, but I wonder if it's the fact that we deserve each other, that we always end up coming back to where we started from.
(kind of how I'm feeling about my current conundrum)

Don't get me wrong readers I will never give up on love. I love seeing people in love, helping people learn to love, and of course being in love myself. It is something that we owe to ourselves not to seek out love but to let it come to us and when it does we should then learn to hold on to it but not so hard that we kill it.
So readers, I'm just saying don't give up on love. Truthfully you should always be in love with someone even if that some one is you, love yourself first.
