Happy new month everyone!!! !!!!!!!!!
Wow! Can you believe it? We are in August, *takes a deep breath* It's like the days are galloping! It was just yesterday we celebrated the new year now we are getting ready for Christmas. Hmmmm! I hope we take this opportunity to review the past months, look at our resolutions to see how far we have gone with them. It's never too late to start something. If you have given up along the way it's not too late to get back there to do whatever you have set out for yourself.

July was incredible! AFROTASTIC happened and it was amazing!!!!! The next post will be on how the event went with some photos to show you. A tad late but wait for it it will be worth your wait. August officially starts the bridal season and so will be quite busy with a few brides. Praying for Grace and strength to accomplish all my tasks and bedazzle more brides.

Yes i take a mean #selfie too haha!

So it just occurred to me that i didn't update you all on the Sankofa Meetup but only did on facebook. Oh well better late than never right? Anyways so the Sankofa Meetup held on the 22nd of June, 2013, and was organized by the Sheabutter Cottage to officially launch their natural hair and skin care product line in Ghana.

Hello Naturalistas,
So i have recently gotten the vibe of wearing my natural hair out into my system. I feel like its high time I fully embraced it esp the short length.

Ok confession time
For sometime now i haven't been taking very good care of my hair. Well......... I was taking care of it but not fully committed. What peeved me was the fact that is was shedding more than what i considered normal. This was the main reason why i switched from relaxed to natural but was still experiencing the same shedding wahala. So to prevent me from seeing coils of hair lying about my room i always opted for protective styling to prevent me from dealing with it. But after thinking thoroughly i realized that probably i was not detangling properly to remove all the shed hair esp after taking out the protective style. After taking the time to properly detangle my hair during the last wash, i can proudly say i saw little shedding during my wash session. Anyways to cut the long story short i have decided to go on a ban on long term protective styling esp on weaves and braids. I will wear wigs for days when i need my hair to set or i am having a bit of a challenge.

This award is given to bloggers with less than 200 followers to recognize them and their hardwork. So i really do not like to do tags simply because i'm lazy however i do love reading them!
