BACK IN ACTION!!


under construction

unbeWEAVEable...

So I was doing some youtubeing today and somehow manage to land on this interesting story...



20 year old Briana Bonds from Kansas City was literally saved by her bullet proof weave. Apparently she was going to the convenience store when coincidentally her former boyfriend was in the same parking lot as her. The ex-boyfriends friend had told her (Bonds) that her ex-boyfriend still loved her and she replied "well I don't love him", then as she was pulling away from the parking lot she then noticed her former boyfriend walked up towards her and started shooting..



Now thats some fuck'ed up shit! what is the world coming to really?
that whole situation is messed, but what matters is that shes alive and well!
but the only thing I actually find real hilarious is the fact that her weave saved her life LOL!!
(I know its nothing to laugh about) but still, seriously a weave. haha like I said it was an interesting story! lol

Living in the forest..

Ok so I know this is totally random but whos ever wanted a tree house as a child? lol I know I did me and my brother would always beg my dad to make a tree house and he always said "yah i will... when i have time" and so sad that time never came LOL so I was checking my emails then i just so happen to run into this article..

Unique Spaces: Free Spirit Spheres By Lisa Felepchuk

Did you love tree forts as a kid? If so, the Free Spirit Spheres may be for you.

Hanging high above the forest floor in Qualicum Beach BC, are large spherical structures that can be lived in. The creator, Tom Chudleigh, originally started off building boats when the idea came to him. “At first I thought I would build a spherical houseboat. I had already been building boats for 10 years at this point… Conventional architecture is all about separation… But in a sphere, the walls, floor, and ceiling all become one,” says Chudleigh.

The wooden spheres use the surrounding forest as their foundation, and are suspended by three, nearly vertical, ropes. The spheres hang in the center of the three trees, and can be slung up to one hundred feet off the ground. Built like a large nut, the spherical shape is well adapted to forest life, since it distributes any impact throughout the skin and resists puncture or cracking. The suspension ropes, which stretch, also absorb some of the force.

Inside, each sphere has been wired with power, sound and telephone. There is room for a bed, sitting area, cupboards and counter space. The spheres can be lived in year around, since they have been insulated. All of the brass fittings were cast by hand using Chudleigh’s original designs.

Clarifying Conditioner: After every "Clarifying Shampoo" I use RedKen Smooth Down Conditioner then Infusium 23 (Original) which I leave on for 3 minutes then rinse out.

Moisturizer: I do this after every wash with Extra Virgin Olive Oil (The solid one) then I wrap my hair in a silk scarf (I LOVE DOING THIS!!). In the morning I put Neutrogena Triple Moisture Silk Touch Leave In Cream then I add John Frieda Frizz Free Hair Serum and sometimes

Natural Curly Hair 101

Ok so this is how curly my hair is. Its actually a love and hate relationship between us and more times I hate it just because it tends to have a mind off its own. And since my hair is really dead due to bleaching, dying and using alot of heat (such as flat iron) to my hair it tends to frizz up alot and get dry.

So here is my tip for those who have hair like me =) (and I actually use a bunch of different products not all at once but it allows me to have a variety because certain things are ment for certain things.. if that makes any sense? LOL)

<---- OK let me start of with the John Frieda, I LOVE IT. I mean it helps define my curls more and what I do also use along with the whole trio that I forgot to post a picture of is the hair serum that eliminates frizz and that works as well!
<-- and while im conditioning my hair I always use a Wide Tooth Comb while in the shower I never comb my hair when dry just because it can ruin yur hair!! and plus it works for me and its way easier to comb!!
<-- There yu go this is the frizz ease hair serum that I effin' LOVE OFF! I mean don't matter what kinda hair style im using it could be straight, curly, wavey it wont ruin my hair but it fights frizz =) so this i highly recommend but its pretty expensive for such a small thing but its worth it!! Another style I like to wear my hair is wavey. When I dont want it to curly I got the wave thing going on and how I do this is by using straightening shampoo and conditioner such as Sunsilk and also to top it all off with the straightening serum! Or sometimes I dont even use the straightening shampoo and conditioner I either would use BioSilk therapy shampoo and conditioner(to make my hair have that nice silky look and it makes it shine too lol) or Redken Smooth Down Shampoo and Conditioner (to help fight frizz)....





and then what I use after washing my hair is either the straightening serum from sunsilk OR I use the Flat out straightening cream by KMS California OR Stick Straight Regimen by Graham Webb!!

And then after applying the serum to my hair I tie my hair back tightly and neatly then wrap my hair around a Satin Scarf (never use cotton because the natural oil in your hair well be absorbed into the cotton making your hair look dull and brittle)

and then in the morning just do all yur make-up unwrap the scarf and wala hair is nice and wavey... but obviously play wit it alittle and style as desired and again I use the john frieda frizz ease serum for the finished look!
and thats about it...
haha well I hope my techniques would help you out because again this is what works for me.. try it out it may work for yu as well... =)

Face Care 101







Ok so I have people wondering what I do use for my face because I have somewhat of a soft clean glowly look.
and what I do use and love to death is;
Nivea Visage face care
- Gentle Cleansing Cream Wash
- Gentle Toner
- Rich Moisturizing Day Cream (not all over face, but on dry spots such as nose)
- Simply Glowing (for all over my face)
- Regenerating Night Cream (what I use on my face after washing and toning)


what I also use that I absolutely love as well is;
the Neutrogena WAVE Facial Cleanser.







yesyes I love this alot! because I really felt better about my skin and it made my skin feel cleaner and softer from the very first time I used it!


so either way those are the 2 I highly recomend but I mean it's what really works best for me! :)


Mix and Match - Hair Edition (lol)



Well since everyone talks about 'Black Hair' or 'Half Black & Half White Hair' what about the ladies who are 'Half Black & Half Asian'? well since I am mixed with Black/Asian I thought hey why not let me talk about hair for people who have the same hair texture as me seeing as in the beginning I found it very difficult to manage my hair and find the right style for me. Well the texture and feel of my hair is soft and very curly when I say curly I mean CURLY! lol I remember awhile back I cut my hair due to damage hair because I flat iron my hair straight almost EVERYDAY and constantly kept dying and bleaching my hair. And now my hair is growing back oh so very SLOW and it's making my sad =( so now I'm actually trying to let my hair grow back and healthier as it was before I'm gonna try to make a video diary of my hair or the process of my hair if not a diary then pictures. Every two weeks I suppose? I'm kinda getting tired right now so on the next entrie I will be talking about what products I use for my hair that I find to actually help control my curls!

Just another regular day...



Well today I was so bored So I decided to fix up my blog page. And I thought hey why not write and talk about things other females may like? such as Hair Care and Products, Make Up wear, Men we just cannot understand? haha but I'm on my way to work and I'm actually really excited to get started on this.
