Baby hair or laid edges can be polarising. People either love them or hate them. Personally, I’m a fan. I may not do extreme edge designs, but I appreciate the art of it. One thing I’ve always had difficulty with is finding a product that provides hold for more than just a couple minutes. I’ve …
I love the flexibility of natural hair and wearing different styles, but straight styles are the most difficult to maintain, especially living in the UK. I was outside for less than 30 minutes and came home with part afro, part pin curls. During the pandemic, I’ve had more time to do my hair since I …
For the past 10 years or more, I’ve had permanent or semi-permanent colour in my hair and even henna. I love colour and being able to change my look, but I’m tired of colouring my own hair. Plus with COVID lockdowns, I wasn’t able to maintain regular salon visits to get touch-ups. Braids, twists, and …
I’ve previously written about my love of DevaCurl Decadence No Poo and One Condition on a few occasions. They kept my hair moisturised like no other, and for that reason I’ve patronised the business for almost a decade, since I began my natural hair journey. Initially, I used the original No Poo and One Condition, …
This post is beyond overdue; it’s all of my 2019 empties! There are so many, I dreaded writing mini reviews for all of them. However, self-isolation really leaves a lot of free time. Below are reviews of some of the full size products that I liked. Bite Beauty Agave Lip Mask: This is my favourite …
I was about to write a review for Olaplex and remembered it’s been ages since I’ve actually posted about my hair here! In December, I got my hair professionally coloured and have had a few highlight sessions since then. The last of which left me with a few slightly looser strands in the front, where …
I’ve taken a break from posting and social media to just deal with life and all of its wonderful ups and downs. However, blogging has always been a bit of a release, so I’m trying to get back into it. It also helped to finally get rid of the empties I’ve been hoarding for a …
I’m kicking off 2018 on the blog by updating my favorites including hair, makeup and skincare. I haven’t done many hair posts lately because I’ve been braided up for the past few months. Check out the list below for some products I’ve been loving, many of which are old favorites. Shampoo: Deva Curl NoPoo Decadence …
Like most naturals, I’ve had a bit of a love affair with Shea Moisture, but that ended abruptly in the sea of new products and to my dismay, formulation changes. In my last post I noted that Shea Moisture is now available in Superdrug and Boots in the UK. While perusing the site (because there …
Wow! Realising how long it’s been since I’ve posted one of these. I think it’s safe to safe I’ve finished my “stash”. I’m so low on products, I’ve resorted to going to Boots again. I know, I know, I should have learned my lesson after my last experience shopping for hair products there. Nevertheless, I …
