Here are some pictures of my senegalese twists as promised... They are small! But I like them. I'll be keeping these in for a month to a month and a half. I wont be getting my braids this small ever again... I just hope my edges can maintain! Finally got my digital camera working with some rechargeable batteries, what a great investment. So now I'll be a snapping fool. *Oh a tree, *snap*. But Im as happy as can be. What a beautiful day in NYC! O yea and Hillary won WV... whoopee. Means nothing because, Obama basically has the seat. Play your cards right Obama. He is not even phased LOL. Now onto the big dogs.

Business Venture
I am working on a business venture. Its an idea I came up with and I won't speak on it just yet, just doing some consulting and research and brainstorming right now... It sounds great, I just have to do more with it... I will introduce the idea later when I actually start. But thats what I am working on for the summer. I am excited because it combines everything I love into one thing, so this, I should enjoy. Remember like I said, it AINT JUST ABOUT HAIR FOLKS! I think the creation of this blog, my idea, and just needing to grow in general go hand in hand and this couldn't be more perfect. Right now I am working on a business plan and designing logos. So this is about growth right? whether its hair growth, mental, spriritual, emotional growth, that is the purpose of this blog. I vow to keep up with this blog as often as possible, and I will have this blog for years to come. This is my committment. We are on a journey remember?
Traction Alopecia
I broke My nail attaching an Obama Keychain to my keys. ALL FOR YOU OBAMA! Its all good :) So I got this Senegalese twist in my hair. I LOVE them but... I got them too small! They are cute as heck but I suffer from traction alopecia. I have had this since 2001 because I put these tiny micro braids in my hair and I use to constantly pull them up into high ponytails. I also left them in ALL summer. So, I was asking for it. Since then I have had problems growing in the area around my temples. I got these twists and the african lady that braided my hair was trying to catch EVERY TINY PIECE OF HAIR I HAD on my temples. I didnt even bother to correct it either. Bad me. I was watching these african dvd's she was playing and they were sooo good! I just wish there wasn't so many parts to them (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3) That gets annoying after awhile. But anyway, my braids look great, but, I need a miracle to happen to keep my edges! So I whipped out my bottle of Boundless Tresses and hopefully, it will do the trick along with taking it easy with the hairstyles. I'm not gonna keep them in too long. Its nice not having to deal with my hair. I'll take pics I just need batteries for my camera. I found my brothers old camera and its a little outdated but, I can take some high quality pics. Yes! Bye Bye camera phone. But anywho, I'll be using BT while I have these braids.
I did my aunt's hair the day before mothers day in comb coils and they came out soooo nice. I should have taken pictures. She has a beautiful hair texture. I would think its 4a? It felt so healthy. My mom has a nice texture to her hair also I think shes a 4a with a little 3c in the front. It just makes me excited to see what my hair texture is like. Im guessing 4a also. We will see. I was admiring this lady's hair on the train, it looked like she recently BCed and she looked like a 4b. I couldn't stop staring she looked so nice. I am constantly staring at peoples natural hair LOL moreso the type 3's and 4's. Its just so pretty! Ok let me stop rambling. I am just toooo anxious! July 10 will make 6 months since my last perm. My biggest goal before I BC, is to grow in some of my edges.
