LOL, yea right. I am not that great of a teacher. There are some pretty good ones on youtube - I'll let them keep that spotlight

Ok, I couldn't watch the video because I was overwhelmed with jealousy!!

Seriously I just successfully did a cornrow up the side! I am going to modify for shorter hair. Don't think I can do the back yet but I am really impressed with the way you demonstrated. Thanks Tia!!!

PS - you're very pretty!

Thank you!!!

Tia, loved the vid! You make me miss my length . I'm going to try to stick to semi-protective and protective styles through the summer to get back to APL, and hopefully BSL by December! Thanks for the vid, you're total inspiration!

I know you can do it! I am still in awe about how much length I have retained since Sept

wow tia since sept...that seems like a long time but time really does go by fast. i think come sept i will be doin protective styles ONLY cuz the winter was brutal on my twa and i just instantly notice more growth when i keep it up and out the way!

It was easy to do protective styles in the winter because I hate cold and I want to be able to put on a hat or hood when I go out. It's a lot harder to discipline myself in warmer weather but the busier I am the more I want a protective style because it saves me time throughout the week.

Congrats on the BSL!!! woo hooo!

Hey TIA!!

I FINALLY placed my IMI order!!! I love having limited edition items.

Ok, so I finally watched your cornrow updo tut! I'm inspired to try. I would have to modify the top though, I don't think I have enough hair to pin curl the twists.

You can leave them lose, that would be cute. I pincurled because hair in my face annoys me and gives me headaches

Your hair Saturday was fro-licious! I enjoyed hanging out with you and NaturalNixon!

Thanks again for my I.M.I. originals! I wore my LBD earrings to an event I attended last night. I will post pictures in the Business Spotlight area in the next few days.

(I'll do this in parts - because I am at work)

Saturday morning started early for the Hubby and I. We were asked to ride (the motorcycle) in the Central Children's Home Day parade and that started at 10am. However, we had to be there at 9am and it takes 1 hr to get there from our house so we were up at 7am (BOOO). It was worth it - riding for the kids.





No, I am not riding yet but gimme a year

It was great meeting you...I still say you are 28!

That fro from the meet up was AMAZING!!!!!!!! Loves it!!!

Hey Tia,
It was really great meeting you. The pics online do not do your beautiful hair justice. It's gorgeous.

I can't wait to rock my flower clip. I'll be sure to post pics.

Thanks again!

It was nice but HOT!! I mean really, was having AC too much to ask. You can not put all those people in one space on a 90°+ day and think that's fine. NO!
I don't have any good pics to share because my camera sux at long range shots in doors. Ok.....it's me, I can't take pics and no one will teach me - I've asked.

I wore my hair the same all weekend so here are pics from my "Sunday Style" (not yet posted on blog):

Ditto! I wish we were all closer I really enjoyed you all and it was like I've known yall for years. There was no "stranger" feeling at all!

Cute!!! I love it!!!! Did you wear your hair like that to church? **snickering thinking of the reactions I would get if I wore my hair like that to church**

Girl yes and I got some stares every where we went on Sunday! LOL.
I was worried the people behind me would not be able to see but then how is my hair any different from those big 'ol church hats that they never take off and that I can't see around? LOL

This week's hair was inspired by Glam Hair Idol Catrina


This was so easy and quick to do. I love it! I am going to re-wrap the back tonight so that it looks more like her's. Here is the link to the youtube vid:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7teMqnOQaM&playnext_from=TL&videos=hbt9cfXp5jE
