We were summer ready with our bright colors & spaghetti straps at our @theorangecollab brunch yesterday. We met some amazing women that I look forward to building relationships with. We laughed, we cried, & we strategized. I’m excited for the next one. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ I think meetups and events for women especially women of color are very important. One of the things we heard the most was how difficult it is to make new friends as adults. Do you agree? ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ If you have any tips on how to make new friends as adults, drop them below 😁.

Hey Sis, ⠀ ⠀ I just wanted to tell you that you are beautiful, your skin is glowing & your curls are poppin. ⠀ ⠀ Tag 2 of your curlfiends to show them some ❤️ (at Las Vegas, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByoKgxbFHLj/?igshid=1vcrwtdsiahew

⠀ Let’s talk Hair Tools!⠀ ⠀ A hair tool is an appliance or item that helps you to care, style or maintain your hair. ⠀ ⠀ Some popular examples include combs, brushes, blow dryers, bonnets etc. ⠀ ⠀ Hair tools can both help and hurt your hair depending on how you use them. ⠀ ⠀ I will never forget the time when I was a teenager & and I did not pay attention to the heat setting on my curling iron. I went to curl my hair, and that little shirley temple curl fell right on the bathroom counter. Honeeeeey 😫 talk about devastated, and definitely learned my lesson! That’s an example of how a hair tool can be damaging when not used properly. ⠀ ⠀ 💁🏾‍♀️If I had to pick two hair tools that I can’t live without I would choose my Aveda Paddle brush & my spray bottle. Both help me with detangling & styling my hair & without them my hair would be a mess lol. ⠀ ⠀ What are 1-2 hair tools that you can’t live without?

⠀ Do you ever straighten your hair? If so, how often?⠀ ⠀ After I get my hair straightened I use the pin curl method to keep my curls poppin rather than using daily heat with a curling iron.⠀ ⠀ The second method I use is to put my hair in a high ponytail & wrap my hair into a bun (kinda like a top knot). My curls usually fall back into place in the morning, but I only do this 2-3 x’s out of the duration of the style. I don’t think my curls would last as long if I only did the bun method rather than the pin curls. ⠀ ⠀ This style lasted 2 weeks without heat.

@thriftsandtangles & I had so much fun at our Clothing + Curly Hair product Swap this weekend. ⠀ ⠀ I snagged 3 almost full products from the mane choice that smell bomb, but one of them magically disappeared from my bag lol. 🤷🏾‍♀️ ⠀ ⠀ What did you get into this weekend?

My sister called me from Georgia this morning to tell me happy #nationalsibingday. I got a little emotional because I miss her so much. We FaceTime every week but we only get to see each other in person once a year. ⠀ ⠀ We are 13 years apart in age but so close in spirit. She named me when I was born, she became my mom figure after our mom passed away in 2008, and on my wedding day she walked me down the aisle because my dad suffered a stroke the week before. He was too weak to walk me, so we walked together to meet him at the front of the aisle so he could hand me off to Keith. ⠀ ⠀ Talk about emotional 😭! Just minutes before this picture was taken I was an emotional mess. I was missing my mom, I was sad about my dad and didn’t know what to do with myself. But she calmed me down and had my back like she always does. So today I celebrate her for being the BEST big sister God could’ve ever given to me ❤️.

💁🏾‍♀️Hair Pictorial Tuesday 💁🏾‍♀️⠀ ⠀ Two strand twist out with perm rods completed on dry hair using @lottabody Wrap Me Foaming Mousse. ⠀ ⠀ Tutorial Steps ⠀ ⠀ 1. Parted my hair into two sections⠀ 2. Apply foaming mouse to small section of hair & two strand twist a little over halfway down then apply a perm rod. ⠀ 3. Let dry overnight⠀ 4. Unravel twist⠀ 5. Fluff out with hair with hands and Afro pik ⠀ ⠀ * Note I twisted half of the two strands twist forward towards my forehead & the other half downward towards my neck to achieve shape shown in the photo. ⠀ ⠀ Review⠀ ⠀ The product was easy to apply & had a nice scent⠀ ⠀ My curls turned out soft with lots of volume. ⠀ ⠀ I do wish there was a little more hold on my curls so they could’ve lasted longer, but overall I am satisfied with the results 😁. ⠀ ⠀ This style lasted me around 3 days before I needed to refresh by re-twisting. I believe if I would have used the product on wet hair it would’ve lasted an extra 2-3 days. ⠀ ⠀ What are your favorite foaming mouse products to use?

What are self care practices you do?⠀ ⠀ Self care for me this morning was waking up and cooking myself some grits + 🍳 eggs, & turkey 🥓 bacon. I sat outside and ate my breakfast in peace, sipped on some fresh orange juice and enjoyed the sunshine ☀️ & light breeze. ⠀ ⠀ In that moment I wasn’t worried about all of the laundry I still need to fold, the groceries I need to buy, & my hair that needs to be washed (badly 🤪). ⠀ ⠀ Instead I sat in peace without a care in the world and enjoyed spending time with myself ❤️.

I did not wake up in the best of moods this morning. ⠀ ⠀ I felt frazzled & overwhelmed, and I’m not even sure why. ⠀ ⠀ That frustrated me even more, because I don’t like it when I don’t understanding what’s going on with me.⠀ ⠀ Even though I was in my feelings, I still spent time giving thanks to God. No matter what I’m feeling or what’s going on, there is always something for me to to be thankful for. ⠀ ⠀ After I thanked Him, I simply asked for His peace. ⠀ ⠀ Philippians 4:7 says “And the peace of God that transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Jesus Christ”. ⠀ ⠀ And that is all I needed...⠀ ⠀ ⠀ 👚 @Quellyrue_⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #faithjourney #christianbloggers #thechristianbloggers #faithblog ⠀⠀ #faithinspired #blessedisshe #butfirstjesus #4thenaturals #brownsugarsocial #lasvegasblogger #vegasblogger #naturalhairisfly #lasvegasnaturalhair⠀ #4cnaturalhair #healthynaturalhair #protectivehairstyle #melaninlove #blackgirljoy #kinkycoily #naturalchix ⠀ #teammelanin #brownskinbeauty ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ (at Las Vegas, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvNbGpwFgEl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19rqrnsol9c89

Who else procrastinates when it comes to washing their hair? ⠀ ⠀ It’s hair wash night for me 🤦🏾‍♀️ (I’ve been procrastinating for 3 days 😂) and I’m considering doing this frohawk style again. ⠀ ⠀ What is the longest you have went without washing your hair? I’ll share mine in the comments 🤭 (at Las Vegas, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvAwApelNnw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=13rt0jrxloo8f

What type of places do you go to clear your head?⠀ ⠀ Truth moment.....I’m 33 years old, and I still can’t swim. I know so stereotypical 🤦🏾‍♀️. The crazy thing is I LOVE the water. Take me to a beach 🏝 and I’m cool being there ALL day just looking in awe at Gods creation.⠀ ⠀ Since we have not a hint of water in Vegas, I have to improvise with my beach scenery. I’ve been coming to this little spot since I was in the 8th grade. To some it might not be much, but to me...it brings me so much peace. Until the ducks start running up on me begging for food!⠀ ⠀ ⠀ Funny side note: I have never read a single page from the Girl Boss book 😂. It was just a good photo prop! Don’t judge me 😏 (at Desert Shores, Las Vegas) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuunDDzlpev/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1k60oumvgkw7o
