Blue Ivy’s Big Hair Shocks the Internet
Beyoncé was recently photographed stepping out with her seven-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, but it wasn’t Queen Bee who generated all the buzz. It was Blue Ivy with the big hair! Since Blue Ivy’s 2012 entrance into the world, people have been criticizing her and from her name to her looks. The list of critics ranged from your everyday internet troll to celebrity status hater. Most of the criticism has been directed at her natural hair. Many described the child’s hair as unkempt, nappy, short, and an array of other negative adjectives, but don’t let the thought of internet trolls and washed up celebs talking about an innocent child’s hair get you all worked up. There were just as many people coming to Blue Ivy’s defense! There were some people who had enough common sense and knowledge about natural hair to realize there was nothing wrong with the child’s hair.

My Curls
I have been trying to transition into leaving my hair natural; this means not putting any heat on my hair whatsoever. I have failed a couple of times and straightened my hair, gave into the idea that having straight hair is better because it’s easier to manage. There are many times that I wished I had straight hair; I straightened my hair every day my entire freshman and sophomore year in high school. Do I regret it? HELL YEAH!

10 Things You Must Avoid If You Have Thin Hair
You don't generally get to choose how your hair naturally behaves. Genetics, lifestyle, and habits can all cause your hair to be thin and fine. People with thin hair have a particular set of struggles when it comes to hair care and styling. Many people make big mistakes with their hair because they don't realize how damaging some styling and care practices can be, and sensitive hair is far more susceptible to these dangers than thick hair. As a result, there are a lot of things to avoid if you want to keep your hair as healthy and lively as possible.

Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie
If you have curly hair, you know the struggle to find products for your hair type. No one ever told me what to look for in hair products so I neglected to wear my hair out curly for most of my middle and high school career. Instead I burned it with a flat iron. It wasn't until the end of my sophomore year in high school I decided to stop flat ironing my hair and finally learn how to take care of my hair. I watched endless YouTube videos to learn every little detail about curly hair. Now I know the type of products to look for when shopping in the store.

Hair Color Services Decoded
As a hair stylist, I KNOW it can be super confusing about all the types of coloring services that are offered. There is a lot of lingo that us stylists use that seem confusing, when simplified can be SUPER easy to understand.

My Favorite Hair Hacks and Products
I don't know about you, but I love my hair. But it took me awhile to get to loving it! My hair is curly, but not like those beautiful natural curls you can tame and work with, no. My curls are random waves and random straight strands of hair and so on. It's a mess if I don't take care of it. My hair comes down to my waist, and it's thick, and frizzy! Everyone's hair is different, but I hope now knowing what my hair is like, it will help you in deciding what works best for you!

Moms with Rainbows
So I have this question... can a mom dye her hair an unnatural color and still be taken seriously? Now, I can see your face as your reading this (scoffing) and saying well, why not? We live in 2018! As true as that may be, we live in a society where we are judged for everything. From what we wear, to how much we weigh, even to how we raise our kids. It's insane the amount judgement that's passed on a mom running late to pick up her kids from school. (It happened to me once when the kids started school again and they were released early because of the heatwave and the school didn't have AC.) That's a story for another time LOL... but my kids don't let me forget it and the other moms looked at me like OMG how dare she forget her kids. FYI: I didn't forget they just got released before the time the auto call said.

Should You Brush Your Hair?
I used to be completely brush obsessed when I was younger because my hair reached my knees and the tangles were impossible. The state of my hair didn’t concern me back then because I just braided it and went on with my life. Now however, it’s all different. First, I like to be low maintenance while looking like I put in work, and second, I now have shorter hair that reaches just past my shoulders. Though everyone could benefit from this post you’re about to read, I do want to point out that if you have crazy long hair, you will want to brush it in some way unless you like surprise dreadlocks.
