We've all learned about adding images and fact checking links to follow up on leads for stories, but what about incorporating them within your own enterprise?

Your work life is News that someone whom you Report to is gonna wanna know about.  Why not grab that knowledge by the horns and follow through with creating a News Report about your highlights?

I even found an Instagam comparative for images to link the "MyMor" references I've sprinkled on my sister page, via webstagram.

MyMate.. gushings..

{because that's who he is to me.. something more than a boyfriend b/c I have the confidence and determination to work through this right} ..is currently distracted by my work flow.

Ironic right?
                           -8/29/13


"My Mate" - yet though we have not formally mated- confirmed what I had felt earlier that day- 5 years since this girlish gushing began.

I've ruined it.. Perhaps those 2-3 years in we should've cannoned through with the prep for a future of stability together or realized by the 3-4th year it was just a routine.

Softening Mask

Vitamin E-dense avocado is the ultimate nourisher, and it’s already mask-like texture makes it a favorite of Asemanfar’s. In a blender, add half a ripe avocado, one egg, a tablespoon each of olive oil, coconut oil and honey, along with one ounce of water. Pulse until creamy. Apply to strands and rinse out after 20 minutes.

“Banana is a natural remedy for dry, frizzy hair,” says Samira Asemanfar, founder of Santa Monica’s new deep conditioning hair bar, The Broot. She recommends blending half of a banana with two ounces of water, then adding a quarter cup of mayonnaise, a tablespoon each of coconut, olive and jojoba oils and two tablespoons of honey. “The mask should be smooth with no large chunks of fruit,” Asemanfar says. “Strain the mixture in a strainer if necessary before applying it from roots to ends.”

If I got paid a dollar every time someone emailed, Facebooked, Tweeted, or YouTubed an inquiry about how to combat dry hair, I'd have an impressive savings account.  Moisture, and the lack thereof, is a very important part of any naturals hair journey, regardless of whether you just BC’d, are Transitioning, or've been natural for years.  If you don’t get a handle on moisture, your hair will show it.

:  You need WATER. Water is the purest form of moisture it is your friend.  So most of us will cowash our hair regularly, right? We rinse out the conditioner with WATER — Fabulous. If you aren’t starting with freshly washed hair, then get your spray bottle filled with WATER only, and give your hair a vigorous mist.

: You need to apply a WATER BASED PRODUCT to your hair.  This can be a water based leave in conditioner, a  moisturizer, or a water based cream.  It can be ANY of those 3.

 USE GLYCERINE AT THE RIGHT TIME 
Glycerine works great for the summer months to help retain moisture in your hair.  It however fails to do the same during winter months.  Glycerine is a humectant, that means it attracts moisture from the atmosphere to your hair.  During winter months it tends to pull moisture away from your hair and leave’s your hair dry because the atmosphere is very dry.  Glycerine works great during summer times when their’s lots of moisture in the air.
 USE THE RIGHT MOISTURIZERS 
Do not use wash out conditioners as leave-ins or moisturizers.  This will cause your hair and scalp to be very dry and hence cause a lot of breakage.  They are made with ingredients that are meant to be washed out.
 USE A WATER BASED MOISTURIZERS 
Moisturize hair at least EVERYDAY with a water based moisturizer then seal because natural hair tends to get dry very easily.
  SEAL IN THE MOISTURE Do not forget to seal in moisture with oils and butters such as Olive oil, coconut oil, jojoba oil, shea butter etc.  This will keep moisture locked in your hair.

Keep hair regularly conditioned, suggests Women's Healthcare Topics by using treatments such as moisture packs and cream rinses. Use scalp treatments to encourage growth and discourage dry, broken hair right at the scalp. Use a conditioner each time you wash your hair to remove knots and make it easier to handle

Avoid ALL heating appliances such as curling irons, blow dryers, hot rollers and especially flat irons or crimpers, suggests HairBoutique.com. These products are hard on your hair, causing it to dry out and break. If you must use them, purchase hair products to apply to your hair before use to help with keeping in moisture.

 Big Chop Nov '09

 ... ALthough, from personal experience, it wont make much difference how much you invest in the protection of your hair by protecting your locks from heat damage, the only way is to avoid the damage ALL TOGETHER BY NEVER TRAUMATIZING your hair with any form of Iron, fryer or dryer.

Pass on perming, straightening or other chemical treatments for your hair, as this dries it out and weakens hair. Hair can break from chemical treatments including coloring, preventing it from growing quickly.

Use a monthly, deep conditioner such as a heat pack. Apply the conditioner and leave in your hair for at least 15 minutes, or even better, leave on overnight. Wear a shower cap to protect your pillow and keep your head warm for added conditioning.

I realized my mistake too late, and now I've gone from a full head of afro-tastic curls, 

 2nd year after the Big Chop

But I'd already flat Ironed & blown it out it 5 days before Toddler girl was born. Transforming full, springy, coily locks

to limp, 

fried, 

dying, broken hair.

2.0  .. Imma do it again.. from scratch, WITH a toddler girl> --  

PRACTICE ROUND----------------------------------------^

Essentially, I did another big chop when Anna-Li was born

<---whewe -----="" are="" in="" length="" nbsp="" now="" of="" terms=""> <---where -----="" are="" in="" length="" nbsp="" now="" of="" terms="" we="">

Where I plan on taking it --- \/

I'm going for Fourteen inches in 2 years.. I believe before my soon to be 2year old turns 4 I'll be engaged. We'll see.. but if this is the case... I want my locks to be MY LOCKS when I rock em down the isle in the musical fashion of my choosing. 

Ok people, I've done this for ME.. but I'm hoping you'll benefit from my previous lack of love for my natural hair.

I've already began revisiting my natural roots..

Now see what had happened was..
After my BIG CHOP...

I was feelin' myself for quite sometime..
and enjoyed the 'short hair don't care' phase.. 

But Then.. 

 

... with a lil TLC, my hair began to grow like the flower it is..

It grew faster than I knew how to style, faster than I knew how to protect.. I love my mane, but at the time, I had NO knowledge of how to keep up..

First .. the addition of a child subtracts from my time's perception and the reality of it's passing.

-in other words, I currently lack the hours required to do my normal sit down routine once a week and micro manage my time according to Toddler Girl's schedule.

When I knew I was going to have a little girl {if she'd been a boyAlexander-Jayden}, I knew I didn't want to sit her in front of another stylist at 5yrs old as my mother had for me..

 I'm told the Baby hormones helped tremendously.. 

I'm interested in proving they 'helped' ..

but with the right amount of care and attention,

the same length can be achieved by ANY and ALL. 

 

Now.. See.. What Had happened was...
If you'll notice.. I'd picked out my "baby shower dress" earlier... and as a "treat" I decided to get my hair blown out by La Dominicana..

5 days later.. my Toddler Girl was born..

What I basically did.. was Fry Chop my hair to square 1

I wasn't 'natural' anymore and as much as i LOVED the length.. inside I missed my NATURAL coils.. the life was dehydrated from my locks and I had to KEEP refusing life giving water in order to maintain the blow out.

I'd transitioned for a year after months of no perms, sticking with the TwistOut method like:  Two strand twists on damply moisturized hair

and the summer attempt of hot combing..

for years I'd been the victim of creamy crack.

Now.. for reconstruct 2.0

Publication Date: August 9, 2012

In a time and place where 'magick' equals power and condemnation, one man would destroy the world searching for the few destined to repair it.

I was eight when Glennorak came to my cabin. He killed the only woman I knew as mother, kidnapped my brother Tresyeus and I, burned down our home and forced me to take arms.

He'd been looking for one of Jah’s Chosen.

Lord Glennorak, twin brother to the King, had no idea he’d found two.

Yesterday I'd wanted a bacon egg n cheese on a bagel.. Today I'd wanted steak egg n cheese on a toasted buttered bagel..
Yesterday I found out my bro'd used all the bacon in his midnight fix and this morning the last of the bagels'd been snatched by the StepChild..
She even had the right to cackle "myyyy bagel"
Looking like another BJ's run..
