A couple of posts ago, I complained that my scalp was acting up because of the stress I was dealing with. I wanted to give you a quick update because things are looking up. First of all, my stress level has come down… a lot. My dad is feeling better and that makes me feel…

Side-eye of the week: Mixed Chicks
Sigh. Black people, we’ve got to do better, you know? Now, I was trolling around my Goo.gle reader and I came across a bit of drama going down with commercial hair care company Mixed Chicks. Read the details here. If you don’t want to read the whole thing, Mixed Chicks joined in some stupid Twitter…
Being kinder to my kinks
A couple of weeks ago, when I was in the middle of my dad being seriously ill, I had to deal with my hair. As I wrote before, the scalp was out of control, so I couldn’t go another two weeks (honestly, I shouldn’t have gone two weeks because my scalp doesn’t roll like that)….
My Friday Favourite Thing… sigh…
I totally love doing My Friday Favourite Thing, but I don’t have the time to create videos right now. I’m at a rehab centre for at least four hours a day and I’m working as much as possible (shoutout to the work crew for being great during this time with my dad). So, My Friday…
My scalp and stress – not a good combination
Hi all! First of all, my dad is doing really well. He’s walking, talking and cracking jokes… serious jokes about stuff that I didn’t think he would remember. Yay Pops! Seeing that he’s feeling well, I am in a mood to talk hair! Since December 14, I have spent inordinate amounts of time at the…
OT: Love reading? Join Books n’ Brunch
Not only do I enjoy playing around with my hair (and hopefully I’ll be able to do more of that soon, my dad is doing much better and is being released from the hospital today! He still has a way to go before he’s back to himself, but he’s a fighter), but I love to…
If winter keeps up like this…
… I’m gonna need all the henna in Canada to stop me from going completely grey. Lord, I need a break.
Happy 2011!
Hi all, I’m back blogging! The last three weeks have been so difficult. My dad took seriously ill and my focus — and my family’s focus — has been getting him back to the healthy, active, independent person that he is. The holidays were kinda sombre — it’s hard to want to celebrate when someone…
Happy holidays
Hi all, Well, my family is going through some tough stuff right now and I can’t really focus on posting. I had a bunch of things that I wanted to share, but they will have to wait. For now, I wanted to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers — we’ve really needed them over…
No posts for the rest of the week…
Sorry all, I’m dealing with a family emergency and I won’t be posting for the rest of the week. If you pray, please pray for me and my family. Take care.
