so, what about the other stuff we promised

so, if you've had a good look through London's Afro, you would have seen that we said it would be a good idea to also mention some fashionable items or just clothes that we love

The other day i was searching the web and came across this:

this is the beautiful Elle Varner!

i absolutely LOVE what she is wearing... not only is she wearing kente/african cloth in an unbelievably casual way but omdz, do you see her hair! It's natural and huge, just the way i like it

i'm not sure i could copy this style directly, but when i am able to find a shop that can make me a kente skirt/dress, i'll invest in a nice black blazer and bounce with my afro...

yes people will stare but remember it's only out of admiration :D 

these dresses are pretty cool too - my favourite one has to be the last one. 

and as i was on google getting some images :o loookkk.....

i found a skirt! i have no idea where to buy it but i would definitely like to invest in one very soon.

 maybe one with a pattern similar to this but in the design above eeeek!

God bless and enjoy your beauty 

see you later our beautiful readers x

What am i doing with my (hair) Life? && African Headbands

Guys I'm sorry but do you see this

I am NOT happy
I cut a bit of my hair off the other day, not much, about an inch or two and I feel baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllld
How does that even work? I'm genuinely perplexed
Anyway, enough of hiding my hair, I'm cowashing and going back to my braid outs tonight!
*Remembering back to the times when i was happy LOL*
 Life was so easy, get up, (un-braid) and go, sometimes I didn't even always have to do that un-braiding step! Just took of the satin scarf!
I need to have a talk with myself, what made me deviate from such a great routine. I just have moment sometimes, where I don't think straight. The 'slow' moments...*sigh*
ANYWHO
Yesssss
Another point I wanted to touch on...
Do you like African Prints?
I love them!
I always have...I'm thinking to invest in a few headbands like these


Maybe not this EXACT thing (actually I really like the first two, might enquire about those) but yes, I really love the bright colours! I need colour in my life. I mean even my hair is against me, its just black, it need accessorizing.

Later Guys
xx


Sorry for the scatty post, ah suh mi think...

I've Been Rocking The Braid Out Look

After I took out my hair extensions out i cowashed and plaited my hair to dry, too it out and saw that it looked good! And I've been doing it ever since. Well, up until i cut my hair....

extensions and naturalness...

Hi again,
I'm a little excited with the posts today! I'm making up for my lack over blogging over the past month or so


I tried out these two hairstyles using Sensationnel afro extensions
 

I went to the hair shop

Have you ever had that moment when you went to the hair shop to buy 1 product...
may i just reiterate that 1 PRODUCT! (some hair extensions)

I came out with bobby pins 


2 chunky hair bands 

a pack of 9 hair slides (for £1!) 

ohh yeah and those extensions by Sensationnel

but about those hair clips! I had no idea what i was going to do with them when i bought them but it helped me do this.
(i was in the middle of twisting my hair which is why there are twists at the back lol)
so... if you have a wedding coming up or a fancy event try these out!!
Love ya

So, i have a treat for you all...

It's picture's of my hair in its current state. 

below are a few pictures i've taken of my hair with a little information under each one.

okay, here i had loosened a twist (had my hair in single twists all week)! I just wanted to see what it was like and again nice curls were achieved 

last but not least i straightened some parts of my hair just because i was curious, and here we have it after 1 year and 2 months :) (please excuse the lack of make-up lool i decided to really embrace the naturalness!)

This look was achieved by greasing my hair with Dax, cornrowing it and going to bed! when i woke up i gently loosed out each cornrow making, what i like to call, a "lazy braid out"

I hope this encourages you all to continue on your natural journey. God bless x
