Curls: Frizz: Fight it or Accept it?

Hello my fellow curlies, a huge problem we ALL deal with is frizz. There are many products that target cutting out frizz and taming curls, but I think I have come to accept frizz (I mean at some point is going to rear its ugly head.) After that realization I feel that some frizz is actually okay. It doesn't look half bad to me. I've noticed when I see other natural heads with frizz, their manes look gorgeous; I think sometimes I am just over critical of my own hair. So with that being said, I do love using my Kinky-Curly Curling Custard (it is definitely a must have in my hair regimen,) but when those little frizzes pop up it's fine. I just give my hair a little shake accept the frizz as fullness :-) and keep pushing!

Life: Does He Love Your Curls?


Hey ladies! I'm curious to know how does your significant other feel about your natural hair. Is it something he goes for and is automatically attracted to, or is it so- so for him. Many women are trapped into the idea that straight (and long) hair is sexy and attractive, and they didn't come up with that idea alone, it's society. I personally believe that natural hair is more exotic and exciting. I can do so much to it, and more importantly I feel like an individual. Now, don't get me wrong I like to wear my hair straight on occasions (I love the length that I've retained being natural) and it's a good look, but there is just something about wearing my hair out natural and curly that feels so right! What's your take on it?

Curls: Not ready to wash just yet...

Here is a style that I usually go to once my wash -n- go is a wash-n- go no more; or I've worn my braided bantu knots or any other style to its wits end! I part the front part of my hair like I am parting bangs, and then I twist it back. Then I'll pull the rest of my hair back in to a ponytail with a goody hair tie/ band, and either wear a loose ponytail or pin it up. Here are some photos to take a looksie :-) What's your go-to style once your styles are worn out before you decide to wash?
