I live in Canada’s largest city, so I expected to see a natural reporter on a Toronto news station. The one reporter/host that was close to natural has ended up wearing weaves (and not so good ones, I must say) for her daily lifestyle program. That was quite disappointing, but who knows what her reasoning was….

Hair pictures and more!
I never liked wearing my hair in just two strand twists. I just didn’t think it looked good on me and it made me sad because I wanted to wear my hair in this protective style for at least a week before doing a twist out. My scalp is another issue and another post because…
I’m winning! Kinky Curly Knot Today
Yes, this post title is a played out Char.lie She.en reference, but I am winning… well, at least I won a bottle of Kinky Curly Knot Today from a blog giveaway! Yay me!

Here’s a clip from the article: Our various skin shades and hair textures are still used as…
Believe the hype… at least for now: Tangle Teezer
Over the past few weeks, I’ve been dying to get my hands on a Tangle Teezer (TT – I’m not writing that out over and over again). I had been using my Denman brush, but The Hubby made a comment a couple of months ago that I was practically ripping the hair out of my…

Hair idols? Really?
i·dol – 1. a. An image used as an object of worship; b. A false god. 2. One that is adored, often blindly or excessively. I have a problem with the term ‘hair idol’ — I just don’t like it. I don’ t like the idea of idolizing anything because, to me, it’s seems like — as the…
My favourite products and what I’ve learned over the years…
If you’ve read my blog regularly, you would know that I was a bit of a product junkie at the beginning of my natural hair journey. Some of it was necessary – how am I going to know what I like and don’t like if I don’t try products? But then it turned into a…

Yay! My two favourite online hair suppliers – Henna Sooq for henna and shampoo bars and HoneyFig (4967 Yonge Street) for everything else — are coming together! I’m doing a happy dance in my seat, y’all! To celebrate, HoneyFig is hosting an event on March 20. Henna Sooq owner Khadija Dawn Carryl will be in…
