jANUARY hAIR . . .

Last month my hair went though quite a few transformations. I was home basically the entire month and I had the time to do whatever I wanted to my hair just short of cutting it.

(1) It started off all nice and curled. Had to blow it dry first. The take the flat iron to my roots and curl the rest with a curling iron. Probably took me a lil over a hour to do it.

(2) The I eventually had to wash my hair and I decided to just leave it natural for a little bit. Just had to put on a little (a lot) leave in conditioner and let it air dry. Also I put a a growth promoting oil on m scalp.

(3) After a while I had to wash it again to get all the conditioner and dirt out my hair and instead of leaving it alone I combed out all my curls and oiled my scale and hair. Then left in a ponytail for a few days.

(4) Then I had to re-comb my hair out. I did little section and platted the sections after they were all detangled.

(5) I then took my blow dryer with the comb attachment and went through my hair to straighten it some at the roots so it be all ready for when I decided to curl it again.

(6) I curled it again !

When I'm home this is a normal occurrence, at school I have to do like all of that in one day.
Natural hair is so much more fun to play with ! lol.

hELP ! . . . Hope this turns out GOOD.


My Best Friend Kadina is getting married tomorrow and I am her maid of honor. To the right is what my hair currently looks like. My dilemma is the obvious . . . WHAT THE HELL AM I GONNA DO WITH THIS ???

I've been online for a good HOUR and have found little help to my problem. This REALLY confused me considering everywhere I turn African-American woman are turning to natural hair solutions. I found a few blogs that talk about natural hair and there experiences. (which prompted me to blog about my own hair)
YET I didn't find an image or even a site that could really help me. Every picture or sight basically told me I'd have to blow dry, flat iron, or curl my hair. The few things I have been trying to avoid.

SO I fear I am going to have to wake up early and play with my hair for about 30mins using all these Hollywood and unbeWEAVEable styles as "inspiration". If all goes well I will have found a solution to my problem FOREVER, or at least until my hair gets longer. lol

I also think i'm going to document my trials and errors tomorrow morning so I can HOPEFULLY help some other girls or women when there in a hair predicament. I know for some people going natural isn't easy at first but maybe by sharing my lil tips and tricks I can make it a lil easier.

This is my hair progression from the beginning of last summer til now...... BUT my hairs been natural since about 10th grade. Tried a texturiser once last year but it wasn't that great so I got my hair cut and thats where the pics begin.

Well . . .

Until Tomorrow.

mY 3D pROCESSES fINAL

The final assignment in my 3D class was to create an ASSEMBLAGE out of atleast 4 random objects . . . BUT . . . one of our objects had to be a golf club. SO, I decided I wanted to make a dress since I knew no one else was gonna do it AND I love clothes. For my dress I ended up using AriZona green tea cans, white grocery store bags, wire, bra hooks, old headphone cord, a broken belt, and the golf club. Sounds really odd but as you can see it turned out pretty good.


ME ! and the hair accessory I made to match the dress.
I Love AriZona Green Tea . . . lol

Laughin at Kim . . whos taking these pictures

All Sides . . .
