<br />
I am coming to with you with a short and sweet post on my recent exploration of using hair rinse. As most of you have noticed I have color on my hair. Recently, I started feeling an urge to play with some hair color. If you are like me and you feel like you may be in need of a new color play it safe and try a rinse first! Only if your interested in darkening your hair color.<br />
<br />
So as I was saying! I recently decided to play with a rinse to see if I seriously wanted black hair. Posted below are pics of my temporary black hair fix lol! Tell me what you think it was so safe it washed out in two week but fun while it lasted!!<br />
<br />
So if you wanna play with color and not worry about damage try out a rinses I prefer (KISS) Colors but they are all safe ONLY!! if it says semi-permanent or rinse out color.<br />
<br />
You can find these at your local hair stores for about 3.99!!<br />

<br />
First I would like to start by wishing you all a Happy New Year!!!<br />
<br />
In recent weeks I got my first major hair trim since going natural in 2011. After a year of being natural I felt it was time to go in for a trim. How could I tell it was time? It all started with a small desire to see my hair in its natural state. I got my hair straightened my ends were a hot mess!! Many naturals opt to trim their hair themselves. I tried trimming on my own but it appears my attempts did not give me the results I needed and were not as precise. So I made an appoint with Nikki at regis Park Plaza mall I went in for a cut. <br />
<br />
Ladies remember it is better to have shorter and healthy strong hair than to have long fragile and brittering damaged hair. Many women get length crazy it matters most the health of my strands than the length even though I was still nervous about my trim.<br />
<br />

( back to the topic lol)<br />
<br />
To my surprise my hair was much longer than I had realized but oh those ends had to go!. I know there are many methods to straightening and trimming hair but I opted for the the wash, blow dry, and flat iron method to ensure that my hair was completely straight so that I might get the most precise time possible.<br />
<br />
Many naturals prefer a even cut but I got my hair layered and trimmed to suit my style options. I must admit my hair has been a lot easier to manage with out those bad ends, knots and tangles.<br />
<br />
Why in the hair salon I also discovered my hair has a new product crush! Yes I said it Product crush!!<br />
<br />
Although a bit more pricey my hair loves Matrix Biolage Conditioning balm and leave in pure bliss for my natural curls!! Stayed tuned for a product reviews!!!<br />
<br />
Pics coming soon of my big trim!! Before and After<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Yours Naturally,<br />

I want to start by wishing each of you a Happy Holidays!!!!!<br />
<br />
<br />
So recently I gave up my DIY method of trimming my hair and decided it was time to get my first major trim!!!! I will admit I was nervous and real protective about my precious stands being trimmed. After much thought I decided it was time I was ready to face my fear. I scheduled an appointment with Regis Salon. I have always been pleased with their services and skills. <br />
<br />
Upon arriving to the salon I was very nervous I was wondering what the response would be upon entrance. To my surprise I was well recieved with smiles and warm welcomes. I met my stylist and to my surprise was a Causcasion woman. At this moment I just knew this was going to go all wrong but I believe when you are good at what you do and confident in your ability that trumps all doubt. <br />

<br />
Her name was Nikky and She did a great job I got my hair shampooed, conditioned, blow dried and trimed. After one year of growing my hair out natural my hair has grown beyond my shoulders and I only had to trim about inch of bad ends off.<br />
<br />
I must admit that my hair feels great and looks even better. The down fall was that I can tell the difference just a tad in length. However I believe its better to have strong healthy beautiful hair than long dead and damaged hair any day.<br />
<br />
I will post pics soon!!<br />

Or at least Stretch lol!!Hey Ladies,<br />

It has been a while but I thought I would come with a hair update. I have had alot of growth in the last 12 months and I now find myself learning to adjust to my new lengths and maintaining my texture and curls. With this new length and added responsibility I am trying to be as gentle as possible all while obtaining the maximum style options!!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My latest discovery has been the banding method!! Yes I said it I have been using bands to stretch my strands!! It works too! <br />
<br />
Are you like me you have length but your hair love to skrink once it dries. If the answer to that question is yes I have a new hair trick for you and it call Bands will stretch my strands!!!!<br />
<br />
All you have to do is go to your local dollar store or walmart and purchase some ouchless or stretch hair bands and make little pony tails!! <br />
<br />
Yes that is all add a little water just a little to make hair damp, a dollop of leave in conditioner and your oil of choice to seal ends and band your hair up. <br />
<br />
I like to do this at night before bed this give my hair ideal time to dry and stretch while I'm sleep and when I wake up I have full big and stretched out hair!!!<br />
<br />
Wow that easy who knew!!<br />

I want to encourage you all to stand behind the President and go out and hold your state representatives accountable for their actions!! In this next four years we need strong leaders who are for the people not against the President and the bettering of our Great Country!!<br />
<br />
I urge you all to voice your opinions and as citizen pay attention to what our state representatives and senators are doing at the capitol.<br />
<br />
I would like to make believers out of those who say we do not pay attention and care this time around we to ensure that these leaders are making the best decisions on behalf of the American people and if they fail to do so we need to take them out of office!!<br />
<br />
The President need's a congress that is for the people and the best interest of America and Americans!!<br />
<br />

Hey Ladies,<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-avLgVLQWkTQ/UJlRlU1uoOI/AAAAAAAAAfw/TFzRxxEiPFw/s1600/mrs+o.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-avLgVLQWkTQ/UJlRlU1uoOI/AAAAAAAAAfw/TFzRxxEiPFw/s1600/mrs+o.jpg" /></a></div>
I am writing you to speak on the topic of confidence. In today's society we constantly see images of beauty and how to be attractive but many fail to acknowledge and put special emphasis on exuding confidence. <br />
<br />
Confidence defined- is having or showing assurance and self-reliance <br />
<br />
Today you find many forms of beauty and ways to make our selves more appealing but what happens when you take away all the superficials items. I have discovered while on my natural journey that my confidence and ability to trust myself has been my best assessory. Many times a person with much confidence may not be the ideal candidate or even the best person for the job but because they had confidence and assured trust in one's ability they were given the opportunity or even looked upon as more favorable or attractive.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Gu_iOHSWlbg/UJlRWelYvHI/AAAAAAAAAfY/-DyPwSYwWO4/s1600/india.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Gu_iOHSWlbg/UJlRWelYvHI/AAAAAAAAAfY/-DyPwSYwWO4/s1600/india.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
Many women today battle with the issue of being beautiful and ideal in the eye of our male counterparts. I have discovered that the most attractive asset in the eyes of a mature man is confidence. Many times I have found myself in situations where I had to go into a situation knowing that I looked my best and that I was just a great as my opponents. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rJUg1RZgd2U/UJlRY8s6pXI/AAAAAAAAAfg/CONfNdDcmTw/s1600/mrs+o+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rJUg1RZgd2U/UJlRY8s6pXI/AAAAAAAAAfg/CONfNdDcmTw/s1600/mrs+o+1.jpg" /></a></div>
I believe that Confidence is something that comes from within no one can give you this asset. Confidence is an ability to trust one's instinct and go out into the world giving your best and knowing that you are good enough.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WNW8TW2uNFM/UJlRQt8LogI/AAAAAAAAAfI/ebLgrvWVQHA/s1600/alek.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WNW8TW2uNFM/UJlRQt8LogI/AAAAAAAAAfI/ebLgrvWVQHA/s1600/alek.jpg" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TfXu43Inr_g/UJlRctiTxrI/AAAAAAAAAfo/U6zXmkxAvDM/s1600/noami+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-TfXu43Inr_g/UJlRctiTxrI/AAAAAAAAAfo/U6zXmkxAvDM/s1600/noami+1.jpg" /></a></div>
Confidence is the ability to transfer your energy and set the thermostat or temperature in a place simply by showing up and being just who you are!!<br />
<br />
Today ladies I want to encourage you to walk with your chest out, head up and smile. Ladies do not be afraid to put on your best outfit, do your makeup, and dab some lip stick on for flair. Whatever you do I encourage you to think big and say to yourself I am good enough and today I will set the pace the energy I give off is high and positive energy. When I walk into a room the temperature goes up!!<br />
<br />
I hope this message encourages you and uplifts you today!!<br />
<br />
Blessings,<br />

Hey ladies, <br />
<br />
As many of you may have noticed the temperatures have dropped drastically!! With the Fall and Winter months approaching we must take hair precautions. Due to the increased chill and dry winds this has been proven to be very harsh on your strands. I am encouraing you all to moisturize and keep your ends hydrated and sealed. The best way to seal and secure your ends which are the oldest parts of your hair is through oils and water. The most highly reccomended oils I have and use are EVOO(extra virgin olive oil), JoJoba Oil, and Coconut oil. These oils if use during styling and after styling are very good at sealing and protecting your ends. I still reccommend routine dusting and trimming of your ends as you deem neccessary but with the cold air we must protect out ends. <br />
<br />
I also reccomend protective/low maintence styling because this helps save and preserve your ends as well. When I suggest protective styling I am referring to styles such as twist, top knots, puff balls, shingles, coil outs, and braid outs. Protective styles will limit the amount of manipulation of your hair and this will help save strands and retain length. I would also suggest ladies to becareful and cautious about going out in the weather with wet hair that is the perfect way to get really sick and we are divas who not only believe in healthy hair practices but over all heath.<br />
<br />
Another great way to protect your hair during these winter months is by wearing hats and scarves these are great and fashionable tools that will protect hair from hair winter air. Also ladies it is good to put together a winter hair schedule and stick to it because this will help with maintaining healthy natural hair during the cold.<br />
<br />
I hope my tips have helped you today and as always I wish you well!!<br />
<br />

<br />
Hello and Happy Fall to each of you!! Today I am coming with a bit of a conversational topic it describes a recent experience. So as you know with being natural its all about embracing who you are and loving your natural self. In my opinion being natural is more than just hair it is the over all person. I want to encourage you to love who you are embrace yourself no matter the color of your skin, texture of your hair, fullness of hips and lips, love who you are and that energy will exit into the universe and return to you!!<br />

Recently I was styling my hair and as any woman does I asked for an opinion from a close family relative and that relative simply replied it looks alright. In my head I am thinking just alright nothing else hmm.... So the next response was its kind of bulky I am not use to it or what it is suppose to look like. So I went and gave my hair a second look and I decided I like the creative style I had and chose to wear the look. <br />
<br />
I mentioned my recent happening to so say that in embracing the natural there will be many times when those around you just won't get it or your look and they may disapprove of how you choose to be but if you are being true to who you and you are happy and love it!! Let no one and I mean no one challenge or sway you from being and expressing who you really are!! I would only say that if it makes you happy and you are not hurting others in doing you go head girl and do you!!<br />
<br />
<br />
Many people may not get it or understand but its not about them or is it for them to understand. I hoep this encourages someone to day!! Continue ladies to Be Bold!! Be Beautiful!! Be You!!! The World needs your Uniqueness!!<br />
<br />
<br />
Blessings!!!<br />

<br />
I first would like to apologize for being away too long! I recently started a new job and the training and preparation has kept me away from my first love hair and beauty. But I am back and I plan to stay consistent from hence forth!!!!<br />
<br />
Today I am reviewing a product I recently tried out. I decided to try out a Aphogee protein treatment recently you know the sticky stuff that makes your hair really hard. I had been hearing different stories about the benefit of protein treatment and the strength they can provide to color treated or process hair and even for colored natural like myself. <br />
<img height="343" id="il_fi" src="http://www.iamrochelle.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Aphogee-Two-Step-Protein-Treatment-585x343.jpg" style="padding-bottom: 8px; padding-right: 8px; padding-top: 8px;" width="585" /><br />
I was led to try this product due to shedding and what appeared to be dry and brittle ends. I know that being colored hair strands are broken down a bit by the color to allow the color to process and this causes hair to become dry and brittle. So I had been moisturizing and trying everything but my ends still felt rough so I though I would give this protein a try!! <br />
<br />
To my surprise I actually love the results and I instantly could tell a difference in my hair and ends. I was so afraid that I might have to do a a huge trim instead of routine dusting. But after the treament I saw that what appeared to be dry and brittle was still strong and resilient.<br />
<br />
Ladies with the approaching winter months I suggest trying a protein treatment especially if you have colored hair or any kind of chemical processing on your natural hair it will help protect and aid it against the dry wind and winter air. Again I have to say that I loved this product and I will be using it again soon! <br />
<br />
It is not suggested to use this regularly because with anything thing too much can cause great damage or alter the results!! But good luck share your story!!Minah Striblinghttps://plus.google.com/117767436763329978109noreply@blogger.com0
