Random Bits About Natural Skin & Hair

Because I have a million things to do, here is a quick and dirty review of SheaMoisture's new hair color system (in Soft Black).



Well frankly.... AMAZING SAUCE!

The hair  color... smells like a field of rainbows, but if you are sensitive to scent, this may be too strong for you. I myself love it. I secretly fear my locs smell like wet dog after a good round of color, definitely not a problem with this product.

The shampoo, conditioner and hair oil that comes in the package alone is worth the purchase! I have not had such a luxurious shampoo since I stopped making my own.



The amount of color in the box is more than ample. I've had shortage issues with other natural hair colors in the past. This fully covered my hair with some left over. 

I'll update the longevity of the hair color later but for now, this product gets 5 awesomes

Please note that I am giving away a box of this hair color system in the available color of your choice!

Move across country and you may spend a great many hours scouring Target for clearance steals.  I'm short on time these days and because I had no desire to make more than one trip, I searched Target, in-lieu of Wholefoods for a natural hair color option. I was just about to give up when I noticed a random clearance display filled with clearance hair colors and my mouth dropped when I saw Shea Moisture has an ORGANIC hair color system! I almost peed my pants from the joy of seeing such a caliber product on clearance for 50% off.

By the way, this was not surprising  since this particular city in Southern California has a brown population of like 1%.

Since my Instagram photo melted my tumblr with overwhelming responses of surprise and deep desire, I decided to giveaway a few boxes. Yes, GIVEAWAY TIME!

For eons now I've been waxing and, more recently, threading my brows. I think I have killed all the sensors in my brow area. But today, after refusing many offers by the wax techs, I volunteered my upper lip. There are these two little spots on the side of my upper lip with this fine hairs that weren't pale (like the others) but in fact a slight black and becoming more noticeable. I'd always refused to have them removed before out of fear the taking any action against their existence would cause the wrath of thicker, darker and more noticeable facial hair. Because I am serving as a bridesmaid next weekend, I was inspired to have them threaded when I went for my eyebrows. 

My gosh, it was the most painful beauty thing I ever did. My poor virginal lip area had never felt the pain of hair removal and my, how we suffered. Now that their gone, I realized that they were only noticeable when I would stare at my face close up. The things we suffer through out of our own paranoia....

FYI, the photo above is prior to threading....
