  • Hair DO

    Lest you were wondering, this is the new hair.

  • DIY FYI: The Other Day’s Hair DO

    The look that I sport here… from a couple posts ago involved a couple hours of twisting with this: It smells vanilla-y. Very vanilla-y–like the extract that you use in baked goods. But it made my hair look good. Until another love comes along, it’s a keeper.

  • The Case for Homeschooling: Reason #7585

    This story caught my attention. Over at a message board that I frequent, people are understandably upset. Meanwhile, although I too was angry, I wasn’t shocked. I even wrote a “teachers can snap” post. Firstly, quite frankly, because…They can. Secondly, because I’m aware of just how cruel some teachers can be. When I was younger…

  • Why am I jealous…

    …of this doll? Maybe ’cause I almost was her–hairwise–a few short months ago. Check out one of her friends. Gorgeous, eh? *sigh* *walks away* I can’t believe a doll–A DOLL, of all things!!!–is making me wistful. Have mercy. HT – Custom DREDS for your Fashion Doll

Overall, I don’t have a problem with educating the public regarding the cultural insanity that involves black women…

  • So Dalia asked…

    If I twisted my hair to grow it into dreds. Don’t I always? <> LOL. On a serious note, if you know me in real life, this has been my pattern since…Oh…Last October: Twist hair. Contemplate leaving alone until it dreds. Get seduced by photos of gorgeous babes with long dreds. Dream of joining their…

  • Hair Update

    I’ve twisted it again. Had to, for the sake of my soul’s sanity. I intend to leave them in this time…We’ll see how far I get. Especially as this must be the fifth or sixth time I’ve done my hair this way since last October. Oh…When I think of how long and funky my hair…

  • Miss this style?

    Me too. I have officially returned to the twisted look that I first adopted as of August the 25th. (I finished a new set of twists yesterday afternoon. But I didn’t take a new pic. My camera’s on the fritz, and my hair basically looks the same as it did in the posted photo.) Two…
