How cute is this???

My loving boyfriend was in the grocery store the other day, and he saw a woman with a lacefront. He said he thought about calling me because her app was so jacked. He said it was sliding back off her head. He said he wanted to say something to her, but thought against it. I told him I should have made consultation cards so he could give them out. I love the fact that he's now a Jedi... he has completed his training!

Up in a tree...

One of my favourite things to do on a warm summer day is climbing up in a nice tree (if there is one in sight), with thick and comfotable branches to sit on, and just think, dream, read, write, listen to music or anything else. I don't think I was doing any of those in these photos though, but next time I think I will. To me, that's one of the most relaxing things to do... I love feeling like I am a part of nature, in a way, like that.

Reader Question For You!

I received an email question from a Naturally Beautiful Hair blog reader, by the name of Sheena. She would like to ask you all some advice. Here is her email:

"I have been natural now for 4 Years, and about a year ago I decided to lock up my hair. I have been doing research, reading blogs, watching videos, learning, learning and learning, and I am sooooooooo ELATED that I have found your site, glorifying something that means so much to me that a lot of African American women and society turn their noses down to. I love my natural hair and I LOVE your site for giving me a place that gives me soooo much information and connects me with other natural women that may have experienced or are experiencing some of the trials that I have went through and currently going through. I don’t want to make this too lengthy because I know I could gush on and on about how happy I am to have found your site."

Sheena's Questions:

"My reason for reaching out to you, is to see if other natural woman have any tips on taking care of their children’s natural hair. My daughter’s hair coils are not as tight as mine’s, her hair is extremely soft. I find her hair ripping out anytime I take her little ponytails out. Her hair is soft and wavy but it becomes very dry as well and I’m not sure what I can put in it to prevent breakage, and keep it moisturized. I would like to stick to all natural products. I currently re-twist and style my locs w/pure Shea butter and a natural oil, but it is not effective in my daughter’s hair. What else should I try? What other ways should I style her hair to prevent ripping?Attached are a few pics of myself and my daughter!!!Thank you soooo much for your time."

To give Sheena your advice, email her directly at SHector@kaplan.edu, or reply to this post with your comment.

Product Alert: EQYSS Mega-Tek Rebuilder

New bandwagon: EQYSS Mega-Tek Rebuilder... for horses... supposed to rapidly grow hair... we'll see.

(This is a continuation from last night)I put the mongolian on last night. I haven't taken pictures of it yet. I didn't get any sleep last night, so I'm dragging. I put conditioner on my hair, then rubbed brown Ampro Pro Styl Protein Styling Gel and brushed it back and up, then let it dry under a wigcap. My hair waved up so pretty. I can't wait to do the slicked back curly ponytail. That's at least a year away, but it's so cool to see the potential. I think this is a good app, but I wish I hadn't cut the long bang so drastically. I've got to figure out how to blend it in. I used 1 layer of WNST, 1 layer of Vapon, and 2 layers of Ms. Lola's. I've got to invest in a paint brush for thinner layers. This cream is like diamonds, and I've got to make it last. I gotta get in a nap, then I'll upload pics of this new app.

Photographs from yesterday...

I had the chance to take these photographs of the beautiful scenery yesterday while going to a beach on the countryside with my mother and sister, which I thought I would share with you. I was mostly just relaxing, reading and going for an occational swim in the very cold water, but I also went for a little walk around in the area where I took these photos.

I hope all of you are enjoying your week!
