That is all...

Hey There!  *smile*  From time to time I will bring blog posts entitled "That is all..." which is me interrupting your regularly scheduled program to share with you random natural hair tips, products, natural diva spotting’s, and more! I will conclude with "That is all" which basically means thanks for your attention, you can go back to whatever you were doing. LOL. 

PRODUCT REVIEW - Miss Jessie's Curly Pudding® and Curly Meringue®
About a month ago I walked into a hair store on my afternoon "I need to get out of the office for a few minutes" break.  I knew that I wanted to try something different but I wasn't sure what.  Was it going to be a hydrating mask, conditioner or moisturizer?  I walked up to the Miss Jessie's display and saw that they had trial sizes....Perfect! I could try to products without spending and wasting money if I didn't like it.  I purchased Miss Jessie's Curly Pudding and the Curly Meringue. 

Miss Jessie's Curly Pudding®
The curly pudding was just ok. It moisturized my hair, smelled good and gave me soft shiney curls but there was no wow factor. I could be just as satisfied if I used Shea Moisture's Organic Coconut & Hibiscus Curl Enhancing Smoothie (which is so much cheaper). So needless to say but I will not purchase that again.  Now, I know that there are some people who love and live by this.  It's not bad, I just feel that I can achieve the same look using something cheaper.

Miss Jessie's Curly Meringue®
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this product!  It smells amazing, gives my hair a great shine, and makes my hair soft.  I used it to two strand twist my hair and I was very pleased with the outcome.  There was close to no frizz, it was curly and bouncy....it just looked amazing.  I got so many compliments.  My hair looked great, I felt great, I was just working my greatness. LOL

 I just purchased the trial size of the Curly Buttercreme so I will be sure to let you know how that works out!


WORK IT VIOLA DAVIS!
Everyone has been buzzing about the two-time Academy Award Nominee Viola Davis' Natural Hair at the Oscars last week! Didn't she look absolutely amazing?  Her colored TWA (Tiny Weeny Afro) looked beautiful as she graced our TV screens in that stunning green Vera Wang gown. Apparently, Viola had been wearing wigs and finally took her husband's advice to wear her natural hair.  The media can be mean and cruel therefore, Viola must of had a number of doubts.  I can most definitely understand. After all, I dated natural. LOL.  Beauty is beauty regardless of if you wear natural hair, a wig, a weave, or a hat. This is the reason why I Blog and I flood my Facebook page with pictures of my natural hair styles.  I am beautiful, I was beautiful before when I was permed and weaved up and I am beautiful now when I am natural and twisted. And you best believe that I will continue to be beautiful because I define who I am, both inside and out. Mrs. Davis, thank you for showing America that natural hair is beautiful! 


That is all...
