TWA Update

What's up!!!

What's up everyone!!!

I hope everyone is doing well today:))


I'm great and I'm loving my TWA, which is such a surprise for me.  Back in the day I hated short hair.  My first two big chops were the worst stages for me during my natural hair journey.  But now I'm enjoying this stage so much that I'm thinking about leaving it short.  I find it much easier to maintain now.  I can do a wash n go with no problem, it takes me less time to do my hair, and I don't have to worry about detangling.



I must admit though I feel like I'm learning how to do my hair all over again.  It's been awhile since I wore my hair loose and a lot of new methods have surfaced.  Even though I have been natural for a total of seven years I'm still learning.  So far the best method for me is the LCO method (Liquid, Cream/Conditioner, Oil).



My favorites products so far are:

  • V05 Moisturizing Conditioner
  • V05 Clarifying Conditioner
  • Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Restorative Conditioner
  • Shea Moisture Dry Oil Mist
  • TRESemme Naturals
  • Castor Oil
  • Bentonite Clay
  • Aloe Vera Juice
  • Olive Oil
  • Rosemary Essential Oil
  • Ylang Ylang Oil
  • Lavender Oil

 I honestly believe it's not how you wear your hair, what clothes you wear or how beat your face is that makes a women beautiful.  It's about how she feels about herself on the inside.  Sometimes it's hard for woman to do that when the media, social media, people and family members are our biggest critics.  The best advice I can give is to ignore the drama and keep your head up.  Your confidence will shine through and show your beauty from within.


On that note, that is all I have for today.  Thank you everyone for reading my blog and your continued support.  Stay happy, natural and healthy.
