Sybil Gets Her 1st Sew-in!

January 27, 2016 by Alisha 4 Comments

Last month I had the pleasure of hanging out with talented Maria of The Maria Antoinette!  Maria and I first “met” when she and LaQuisha of Corner Curl Girl over 3 years ago when they had a 30-day natural hair challenge.  That’s the first of 2 challenges I’ve actually completed in the last few years by the way…LOL!  I’ve had the chance to witness Maria’s business and following grow tremendously over the years and so happy to be able to call her a friend.  Not only is she the bomb with hair and makeup, she is genuinely a nice person as well.  Nothing worse than someone being pretty on the outside with a heart of stone!

You all know that I’m not for long hair, but what I’ve been wanting since I got my taper cut was for the top to have more length.  Shrinkage is the debil and it didn’t help that my last 2 cuts totally jacked up the length on top.  -_-  I showed Maria a picture on instagram and we just knew we had to recreate that look.  I’ve never had a sew-in before so this was all new territory for me.

You Won’t Believe What I Did to Sybil!

April 13, 2015 by Alisha 13 Comments

For the last year or so I’ve been lusting for some time of change to take Sybil to the next level.  After my “Can I make it a year” without cutting my hair challenge I thought getting a new cut would pacify my need for a drastic change.  That lasted for a few months before I started scouring Pinterest and Instagram for some inspiration.

Last year I had a wild hair up my butt that I wanted to dye it pink.  I wanted to do it in support of my mom having a double mastectomy after she was diagnosed with breast cancer.  That quickly changed when I realized that I might end up looking like chocolate dipped straw with cotton candy on top!

So back to the drawing board I went!  Several of my curlfriends on instagram have been sporting purple and blue hair and I just knew that would be perfect for Sybil.  I reached out to a stylist I’ve been following for a while via IG and told her that when I was in Orlando, she would have to hook me up. Alana AKA Primadonna_Lana on IG decided purple would be a good choice for me and I’m so glad she picked it!

Now in order to get Sybil to a rich and vibrant purple we first had to lift my brown.  Now when I say lift…I mean we had to L I F T it to blonde.  WOW is all I can say when I saw my reflection in the mirror. LOL [Read more…]
