Poppin’ in really quick to share this amazing series with you from I Luv Your Hair, a site which I have been contributing to since inception AND has recently celebrated its one year anniversary! It has been a genuine pleasure to work with editor, Tiffany Barnes. This Beauty Talk series that she’s put together is a must watch! If you’re a regular here, you may already be at the point where you are absolutely in love with your natural hair and rock it confidently… orrrr maybe not. In any event, I think this three-part series will give you a little boost whether you’re at one stage in the journey or the other. Enjoy part one below and make sure you click on parts two & three afterwards. Oh, and SUBSCRIBE! 😉 xoxo Toia B.

Wow. I haven’t done a product review in a minute and this one is SUPER late for a ton of reasons which I’ll spare you for now, so… let’s get to it! Many moons ago, I posted on Instagram that I tried a certain Rhassoul & Bentonite shampoo bar. I was soon after contacted by the creator of Naturalicious, Gwen, who saw this post and thought I might like to try her Rhassoul Clay product- Moroccan Rhassoul 5-in-1 Clay Treatment– seeing as how I had a decent experience with the shampoo bar from this other brand. Although I expressed that I may not get to review her product right away, Gwen was totally cool with that and was happy to send along the product anyway. She asked if I considered my hair to be kinky/coily or curly/wavy. Here’s what I got… Product Claim (from the creator herself): “it’s the only ready-to-use liquid…

Have you ever felt like your hair growth has come to complete halt? Many of us have gone through this at one time or another in our natural hair journey. The fact is, your hair is always growing but you may not be retaining length. In other words, just as fast as it grows, it breaks, creating the illusion of stunted growth. Here are five things to consider: Lack of Moisture Because our strands have twists, bends and curls, it’s much harder for the natural oil, sebum, to travel the entire length of the hair shaft from root to tip than it would for someone with naturally straight hair. So we need some help.

Bright, bold colors. Simple style. Easy, breezy hair. These are the things that attracted me to our September Natural Fashionista, Chioma. Yet another social media find, she is truly making waves in the blogosphere with her “rock what you got” approach to fashion: re-styling pieces to create new, fresh looks. Say hello! Hi Loves! My name is Chioma Brown and I write the Kentucky based personal style blog, Chioma’s Evolution of Style! How long have you been wearing your hair in its natural state and what made you decide to take that step? I’ve been natural 3.5 years. Relaxers were beginning to really damage my hair and irritate my scalp so my then hair stylist actually told me she would never apply another relaxer on me because she loved me and was worried about my hair. That’s so rare, and I love her for doing that for me because it…
