Bantu-knot Out (3 Days Old)

Hey Blogspot!!! I'm at work on my lunchbreak and recorded a vid of my hairstyle for the day. It's a 3-day-old bantu-knot out, that I moisturized with a mixture and sealed with an oil...

  • Mixture: Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Wave Nouveau Moisturizing Lotion, Water 
  • Oil: LouAna Coconut Oil

Sexy Eyebrows!

I have come to find that the second most important asset (beauty-wise) of a woman is her eyebrows...hair is #1 in my opinion! Well anyway...I was looking on YouTube and found a couple of people's channels that I like two are shorty2sweet59 and mztori728. I didn't have all the products that mztori728 had but I did use:
  • Black & dark brown eyeshadow (SHANY Eyeshadow Palette 40 colors) on my eyebrows
  • Eye concealer light color (Off Brand: $1.00 @ Family Dollar) to highlight directly under & above my eyebrows
  • Maybelline Black Mascara for my eyelashes
This was my first try at it...Enjoy! (P.S. excuse my big beautiful forehead! LOL!)


From Natural to Relaxed Hair Journey

What's up! I'm Tamika & I've had natural hair for three years until Dec 2011, I decided I wanted a new look and I was so tired of wrestling with my thick, coarse hair. Don't get me wrong I love some natural hair but for me, I wanted something different. So now I am on a relaxed healthy hair journey. Here are my natural (past) and relaxed after pics!
