I finally Scratched the Itch

Hey Guys! I'm hair again! So it just occurred to me that the picture of me in my last post might have come as a shock to some. Yes, I finally cut my hair. Remember when I talked about wanting to do it here? I did it guys💃. Twice sef 😀.

First, I had a pixie cut. See pictures below. 

My sides have started to grow on the left. 

I went from left to right 😊

                   My sides grew in. 

    So I had to cut the crown/center-front. 

 

My hair has grown even more. I've also done something with the hair. Think major alteration 😀. That will be another post on its own, so stay tuned😁.

Who Set These Standards For Beauty?

I don't know if it happens anywhere else but in Akure, going to market with your natural hair or without some extensions might mean you'll be nearly harassed by mobile stylists  every corner. You'll hear things like "Aunty you wan do your hair?" "Come make I do your hair, I go do am fine" etc. So, just wearing my hair is not fine? It can be so annoying at times. 

We really need to change the notion that our hair needs to be "fixed" to look beautiful. Our hair is beautiful just the way it is and we(Nigerians and Africans) should learn to embrace it in its entirety.

Let's wear our hair with pride. After all, it's the one we were born with. It's also the one we're returning to God with. I don't believe anyone is going to be fixing any weaves in hell or heaven, depending on where the person ends up. I strongly suggest they make it to heaven by the way😀. The other place is not cool(no pun intended and in all seriousness). How did I get here sef🤦.

Anyways, you guys get the point. Let me come and be going😀.

African Threading Will Not Grow Your Hair!

Hey guys, I'm back again. And I'll be talking about a particular protective style and the myth surrounding it. You might have figured it out from the title already 😀.

So, for the last time(I hope), African threading does not grow hair! 

There is no hairstyle in this life that grows hair. I'm tired of this myth being flung around. 

Kiko, just like any good protective style can help you retain length. Hair that is left alone will retain length. It's why long-term protective styles(3 -6 weeks) are great for length retention.However, Kiko will not make your hair grow. It will only keep your hair a stretch when you loosen it(maybe this is why they think it grows hair). Moisturise or wash it and it's back to its normal shrunken state.

So, you may notice some growth. That's because as hair usually does, it grew. While it was in the protective style, it grew. It wouldn't have mattered whether it was twists, fixing, braids or adimole(they say this one grows hair too) 🤣🤣.

Y'all  need to stop. Is it everything you hear you'll believe? Hair growth is science not magic. Please! 

Can you people tell I'm pissed🙄😌😂😂😂😂.

But you know I love you guys😍🥰🤗.

Till next time, bye 👋. 

Natural Updos

 Updos are always in. Natural Updos especially , will never go out of fashion.  They're for every woman who wants to switch up their everyday look. They can be worn to official functions, weddings, birthday parties etc. 

I particularly love textured Updos because they look gorgeous, different and a bit extravagant. No matter the face shape of the wearer, they usually turn out great. 

Enjoy these pictures of some of the Updos I've created. 

See you soon😊.
