Jumpin On the Bandwagon FINALLY

One day as I was browsing blogs I thought to myself "hmmm maybe I should start my own blog", however, I never got around to actually putting my thought into action. So here I am about 11 months after my intial thought. (I wasn't procrastinating. I'm just meticulous when it comes to planning). :-)

The majority of the topics in this blog will be about my hair care journey and make up. In May of 2009 I realized I needed to take better care of my hair and after doing a little research I threw down my hot comb and curling iron and embrace my natural tresses. I'm of African descent with a 3c/4a hair type. I had bra strap length hair up until I was in the 10th grade. My hair was damaged and I had to get it cut. My hair is currently shoulder length. My goal is for my hair to be healthy and at BSL again.



**Be ye warned I'm a tad bit random. I'll probably have a few blogs about whatever pops into my head, occurrences of the day, my latest project: The Hello Kitty Car, etc.

Well, that's about it as far as my introduction goes. Hope you enjoy.
