My Matted Hair Vs My Wig

Image
Good day all, well yesterday I loosened the fixing which I had on and I steamed my hair and matted it (didi).  I was supposed to trim it but I totally forgot to tell them to do that, so that would be next time. Afterwards, I bought a lovely looking wig and put it on. The wig is a chocolate product with a nice texture and guess what, it's very affordable too. Got for just N2,500. It's possible I could have gotten it cheaper but I was just too glad getting it for the price I did.  My future husband-to-be (the name I would call by bf for the benefit of this blog) saw my matted hair and was like "What is this?".

Transitioning from Relaxed to Natural Hair

I'm considering transitioning from relaxed hair to natural hair. I have not fully decided but I am actually excited about it already.  I have come to believe that our black hair is beautiful the way it is and we should learn to embrace our hair. We can never really have hair that that of the Whites, Asians, Latinos etc. So, we might look at their hair with longing... but we should look at our own natural hair with longing! because it is possible. Having a hair texture like the white is not possible so why long after the impossible. Chemical relaxers contain an unspeakable amount of toxins. Sodium hydroxide is lethal if ingested, so you need to ask yourself, “What is this doing to my body when I put it on my scalp?” Your body is absorbing it that’s what. Studies are finding that relaxers are being linked to fibroid tumors in African American women. Going from relaxed to natural hair is like letting go of a chemical weight that has held you down as long as you’ve bee...

Rihanna's Latest Hairstyle

Riri! the woman that changes hairstyles like underwear. She has probably tried all colours of hair. Didn't really like the shade of blonde which she wore with the fringe in the pic above coz i felt it made her look older. I am a Rihanna fan so you guys should get used to seeing her on my blog. Anyways, I'm so loving her present hairstyle as shown below and I think I will try it when I get rid of the present one I'm wearing now. I'm not as bold as she is and would not even think of cutting my hair. However, I would modify it and come up with something. Will keep you guys posted!
