Natural Blast From the Past: Nina Simone


Nina Simone. She is beautiful. I love her features--those full lips and intense look in her eyes. Of course, her natural hair is on point. I wanted to feature her after hearing my sister sing her song so beautifully at her concert. That song, Why? (The King of Love is Dead) is really moving.

Bonus: Video of my sister, Auset, singing her song Why? (The King of Love is Dead)

My Sister, The Product Junkie

While visiting my sister, Auset, this past weekend I was simply amazed at the amount of products she has in her arsenal. And the picture above does not show everything. She had other products in the cabinet below. And even though my sister has a lot of products she does know what works and doesn't work. And I am grateful for that! I let her try out the products and once they get her stamp of approval then, I purchase the products:-)

My product area looks so pitiful in comparison to this. And I am constantly running low on items. Shea butter definitely needs to be restocked...

A Great Weekend

This past weekend, my family and I went to Atlanta to see my sister, Auset, in her Spring Concert with the Jazz Ensemble. It was a really great day! We first went to a Carribbean Vegetarian/Vegan restaurant for her birthday. Then, we went thrfting. I purchased two new skirts. After that we briefly experienced the Health Fair that was going on. Auset then had her soundcheck so, we sat in. After the soundcheck she changed for the concert and then, we went to some of the pageant for the school. Most of all, I really enjoyed the concert. It was so great! My sister is really talented!! And the ensemble did a wonderful job. Below are some pics for the weekend.

A brief description of me and my sisters' hair. Alison just recently did another big chop. So she is rocking her TWA. Auset is wearing a wash n' go done with Shea Moisture I believe. And my hair is on Day 6 and it is rather big because there was a drizzle/mist the day before.
