During my trip to New York City, my loving husband gave me his cold. My cousin and his girlfriend took us to Times Square on Friday night and I got a serious chill — it was cold as backside — compounding my misery. I began hacking, which brought on hiccuping and a general feeling of…
New York, New York!!
Well, work and life got the best of me these few days (work has been an absolute beast! I’m fearing taking a vacation and coming back to loads of work) and I wasn’t able to post the other article that I had in mind to do. And, of course, I thought I may be able…
Bleach, Nip. Tuck: The White Beauty Myth – Episode 2
Part one disturbed me, I ain’t gonna lie. It also made me angry — why do you think you have to change your features to fit in? What kinda crap is that? Why aren’t you strong enough to fight that? I was most angry at the Black woman who wanted to change her nose and…
The wash-n-go mishap of ’09
As we count down the weeks until 2010, I am thinking of all the successes and failures of the past year. On the Saturday of Labour Day weekend, I decided to try a wash-n-go. Now, I’ve always been wary of the wash-n-go. Why? Well, I’m just not sure how my hair will look. I’ve seen…

Missing my hair
I knew this was going to happen. I was counting down the days until I got my hair twisted in my first protective style of the fall/winter season… but now, I’m totally missing my hair. If I want my hair to stay healthy and strong during the cold months, I know that I have to…
Upcoming hair events happening in Toronto!
One of the things I truly enjoy about living in the Greater Toronto Area are all the interesting events that you can get involved in. I grew up in Montreal, which is a very different beast. I hope that things have changed in that city… but I digress. Today, I wanted to let you know…
Hair updates
Today, I’m giving you a quick update on my hair and scalp in its first protective style of the season. As you know, if you’ve been reading, I twisted my hair on October 31 — about two weeks ago. My goal is to wash every two weeks with my Country Rose Soap Co.’s natural liquid…
