"I didn't GO natural, I RETURNED"


Heeey y'all, my name is Alaina and I'm here to give y'all hair LIFE, beauty tips and of course a little fashion love


. 

 Yes, I was a straight hair addict, relaxer junkie but that all changed in 2010. When returning I probably knew a handful of natural haired people. Even the African American dudes were getting into the perms and relaxer; I find that straight crazy. Nevertheless I took the step and chopped all my relaxed ends off. I believe seeing the versatility in natural hair made me return. Don't get it twisted, I had the hardest time chopping off my relaxer, having to dedicate myself to wearing a silk bonnet at night and following a hair routines to make sure I had given my hair the care it needed. Products were the hardest to find since there wasn't a lot out there at the time. Natural shea butter & I rocked it out for a while. Shea was the only thing that understood my hair. Now that there is hundreds of products out there I try to give all a fair chance. 

I will be doing reviews on hair and skin care products, hair styles, interviews with naturals and also have monthly curl chats. Natural, relaxed, transitioning I have something for all of y'all.

I promise you will not be disappointedPerson raising both hands in celebration

Hey darlings and Happy Workout Wednesday

I was so hesitant  to post certain pictures of myself. I was worried of what others will say or think but today I woke up and said to myself "you've come a freaking long way and the opinion of others shall be the least of my problem." I want to give you all the real deal.  The real me, no gimmicks!  This is raw and uncut!    This right here is my biggest insecurity.  I have been struggling with  loose skin and stretch marks around my abdomen ever since giving birth to Titan (my second born).   I was ready to throw in the towel and go under the knife but my husband stopped me. He asked me a series of questions, one being "Do you think you've given yourself a fair chance?" I was confused by what he meant but he shortly explained what he meant. In all honesty, I did not give myself a fair chance at all. I gave up on working out so many times and ate horribly.  Last year I turned 30 and have made a vow to myself that I will work harder to accomplish my

Two weekends ago, I had the opportunity to be apart of the JIRANO'S Multi ethnic hair care line photo and informercial shoot. I had a great time with such an amazing group of people.    Behind the scene      The brand JIRANO was created by sisters Jane and Jedi. These two African beauties completely understand the diversity in hair. "ME" [multi ethnic] has been created specifically for natural hair individuals. The products have been made with some top ingredients ; coconut, keratin, honey just to name a few. Their philosophy is to put as many active natural ingredients into the products as possible for beautiful hair right away, everyday. Check out www.jirano.com for this upcoming hair line.
