The weather has been so up and down that the best solution right now is to invest in at least 3 hats that you can sport for the rest of this cold season.

I think that everything is in style in today's world. There is no right and wrong and that goes for hair as well. So long as your hair is well maintained whether it be with color, highlights, a classic cut, a perm or relaxed, any hair do will do!

Share Your Hair Tips!

Shampoo Tip: Try Dove Shampoo and Conditioner (Separate Bottles) Keeps hair silky soft. Yes, women of color should try this product, make it work for you and try not to shy away from products that may not be geared toward you because it could be a shampoo break through for you trust me.

Oiling Your Scale: Yes, ladies we do like to keep our scalp moisturized but the key is not to go overboard it. Going over board will cause your hair follicles to become clogged and therefore not able to breath which may cause excess flaking. Putting a lot of hair oil/cream in your hair will only weigh it down and cause it to get dirty very quickly. Patience is the key with your hair...don't expect a hair miracle over night.

Hair Oil Products: Carrot Oil, Olive Oil (See Articles: coming soon) *This is Gold for your Hair*

It's Not Ok to Touch My Hair!

2008-01-15T12:48:00.000-05:00

When my girlfriends and I get together and do our girl talk, sometimes the weirdest topics arise. One of which is "why do strangers think its OK to touch your hair?" I could understand if they ask first, but a lot of individuals really don't and I am boggled as to why. I consider my hair to be very much apart of me just like my nose or arm. To be quite frank its annoying and unfortunately I have seen people get very upset by this very "not welcoming" gesture. Is this a universal thing?

Black Woman's Hair in the Media

Do you think that the media emphasizes that "black women's hair" looks best when straight rather than natural? Watch this video on Hair Wars...I found it to be very interesting. Three women of color discuss the irony of how the "black woman's" hair is portrayed in the media.

Trying a New Look!

2008-01-14T23:59:00.000-05:00

What do you do when you get bored with your hair?

Well, I'll share my hair experiment...
I decided to let my hair grow back to its normal long length and still wanted a different look for the New Year. Ironically, for months I thought about cutting it very short "A Hallie Barry" but then I reconsidered. So then I thought, "What about Bangs?". I would still incorporate "my cut" but it would just be the front of my hair, so I went for it. Guess what I love it! But something was still missing, what else could I possibly do with my hair? I know, what about highlights! Altogether, my hair style experiment was a success. A bit scary on deciding the length that I wanted for my bangs and then choosing a color for highlights, but it was worth it. I have received a lot of compliments, so I am loving it even more. So, have you tried a new look?
