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…

Tangle Teezer & Shea Moisture to Canada!
There are very few products I can’t get here. Either I can order online or find them in store. Recently, I’ve wanted to get my hot little hands on two: the Tangle Teezer and Shea Moisture products. Now, I understand that not everything will be locally available and if I want to try out certain…
My Valentine’s Day songs
Valentine’s Day isn’t a big deal for me and The Hubby — we let each other know that we love each other daily. So today isn’t any different than last week Monday. But in honour of Valentine’s Day, I’ve listed some of the love songs that I think set the mood. When I say love…
