Winning Wednesday Giveaway (CLOSED)

November 14, 2012 by Alisha 40 Comments

Who doesn’t like a good giveaway?!?!  Well I want to welcome you all again to my new home and what better way to kick this off.  My mom just got back from a Mediterranean Cruise (yes I’m still hatin’) and she brought me back so many goodies.  Over the last few years I’ve become quite the collector of scarves.  They are so versatile and can dress up or dress down an outfit and they can also cover up a bad hair day while making you look chic!

I love scarves…can you tell?

Well what good is it to just show off my scarves and not share the love?  I will be giving away 2 scarves…yeah!  They are 100% viscosa and measure approximately 24×66 inches.  They are lightweight and perfect to wear year round. [Read more…]

Two-Strand Twist Out on Natural Hair

November 6, 2012 by Alisha 10 Comments

Good day to you all!  I hope this post finds you all in a fabulous mood!

Once again in my quest to help Sybil (my hair) feel like a big girl I decided to do a twist out.  Y’all would not believe the shrinkage that I have to endure.  I did a wash and go the other day and a co-worker asked me if I got my hair cut.  O_o

One of my favorite styles to do to help stretch my hair is a twist out. A twist out is a hairdo where you two strand twist the hair, then allow it to dry by either air drying it or sitting under a hair dryer.  I always let mine air dry since my hair is still pretty short and it typically dries completely by the next morning.  For the latest twist out I started with a day old WNG (wash-n-go).  A WNG is when you simply wash or co-wash (washing only with conditioner) hair, add a styler gel or cream and roll out!  Since the weather is getting cooler, a WNG isn’t the best style unless I want to end up with a head cold…LOL

Me giving Sybil the side eye because she shrunk the heck up! “Damn you shrinkage!”

I sprayed my hair to get it damp but not soaking wet then I parted my hair into several sections and worked a small amount (pea size) of Coco Curls Styling Cream onto each section that I was going to twist.

I love this stuff for my twist outs!

Lawd look at that shrinkage!

Then after what seemed like an eternity, I twisted my whole head!  I’m pretty sure it took me a couple of hours, but without all of the interruptions (ie, kids) I would have been done in less than an hours.

Woohoo! All done!

All twisted up!

Still unpacking and about to pour a glass of wine…

November 4, 2012 by Alisha 6 Comments

Phew all this moving and “unpacking” from Blogger to WordPress has this natural hair mom tired!  Now I hope everyone has taken the grand tour.  Be sure to watch out for a few boxes and that long extension cord I have running through the place.  Things should be all cleaned up and tidy in the upcoming weeks.

While I’m waiting on the delivery man, be sure to check out my fan page Coily Locks – Fan Page!  It will include more tidbits that make up my crazy life.
