Just some products I came across over the weekend!

Today while in Harlem I passed by the Carol's Daughter store and just had to stop in. All my lovely natural bloggers always rave about their products so I wanted to take a peak at what all the hype was about! I didn't have money so I couldn't buy anything BUT i smelled everything and it smells great lmao. They have products for all types of things, next time I am getting the black vanilla leave-in conditioner! The other picture is of Brendita's body works glowshine collection. After seeing the fab naturalchica's post about this line I checked out and found a product that sounds like it is just what I am looking for! So there will be a product review once I recieve the product. Also, as I returned the enzymion moisturizer that made me breakout to Lush i picked up the Godiva solid shampoo bar. It contains a lot of things that are wonderful for hair such as shea butter, olive oil, and jojoba oil. It smells wonderful too! =)

transition goal

After watching dozens of videos I've decided that I wanna do my big chop at 8 months which will be around July 31st. Originally I wanted to do it at 6 months but i dont know if I'll have enough hair to do twist outs and stuff by then. I've noticed that a lot of ppls hair grows at all different rates though so hopefully my hair will grow fast and I won't wait so long. I might do one chop at 6 months, leaving an inch of relaxed ends on and then cut the rest at 8 months. But we will jus have to see about that now won't we =)

eek!

well as for my post yesterday about lush, i realized that the enzymion moisturizer was causing me to breakout so i stopped using it immediately and my face is clearing up. It is probably the papaya juice and lemon juice that irritated my skin. Everyone has different skin, so it may work for you but NOT for me. I think I am going to exchange for the vanishing cream, or hear what suggestions they have for what I am trying to accomplish.

My addiction!

I started using Lush products in October and now i swear by it! All products are 100% natural so it looks really odd, but it is awesome! They have skin, hair, and body products. Right now I am using "black angels" for my facial cleanser, it is made from coal, black sugar and a bunch of other natural ingredients that leave my skin feeling great. I tone with tea tree water and just got the Enzymion moisturizer on Sunday. I was using the vanishing cream moisturizer before and I'd recommend for those of you with oily skin. I liked it but I wanted a product that focuses more on evening out skin tone as I have a lot of scarring. So i will let you guys know if it gives me results! In the mean time, find a Lush nearest to you and indulge in fresh, natural, handmade cosmetics!

Weird!

So i kept askin myself, if i do get tired of the transition and wanna BC what would I look like? Well, I was looking through pics i took on my webcam and the other day i took out tracks that i had in and put my hair in a pony tail and took a couple pics wen i was bored, and it actually looks like I had a TWA. sooo this is what i suppose I'd look like with short hair...

my 1st post =)

This is my first post on my new blog! I started this blog because I am a college student now and I feel like I have been learning a lot about myself! To continue this journey I decided to go natural. I have been permed ever since I can remember and I am always bored with my hair, and it never really grows. I wanna know who I would have been had I not been conditioned to conform to how people feel i am supposed to look. Im only about 6 weeks into my transition but I am so excited. I have learned soooo much from other bloggers and youtubers and I feel like I am totally prepared for this journey that I am about to embark on. The picture above (also my profile pic for now) is my first transition style, sew-in weave, which I luckily can do by myself!
