Outre Timeless All In One 4pc Human Hair Natural Blend Weave - Bohemian

I have really been enjoying the fun of making my own wigs lately. It is a satisfaction that I cannt get from buying a pre-made wig, not to mention I can customize the size, color, fit, cut just the way I want it. Check out my latest wig using Outre Timeless Hair in a color 4. Beautiful and perfect for spring. 

What A Year!

Hi my loves,  

I am not much of a Happy Holidays type of person, meaning I would much rather say Merry Christmas and Happy New Year because I feel Happy Holidays is so generic but I saw the above picture and thought it was very cute. It inspired me to write this post.

 

2013 will be over very soon and this has been simultaneously the greatest and worst year of my life. How is that possible you may ask? Well some of the best and most memorable events in my life happened this year --- I got married, I bought a house, I graduated with my MBA. Some of the worst things, which I don’t care to revisit, also happened this year. I will never forget this year, EVER! I grew more as a person this year than I have all of my 30 previous years. God revealed a lot of things to me about myself and what better way to learn than through a unforgettable experience.  He shook my world, I fell and he gently helped me back up. I leaned on HIM.  Oh my goodness, what a year! 

Well, I just wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas. PLEASE REMEMBER CHRIST. I feel like more and more people are making this life is about everything but Christ. And when this life is over, then what? Nothing will matter but your relationship with Jesus. I love you all, genuinely and truly.  Even if I don’t know you personally, I feel love in my heart for you. I know the love I feel everyday comes from the love Jesus shows me, it pours from Him to my heart to others.  Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

Sometimes That's The Way It Is...

Eyes are open but I cannot see

My thoughts are clouding everything around me

My mind is consumed with thoughts unyielding

My heart is heavy with all of my feelings

It is not easy and it is not fair

I only hurt because I truly care

I only hurt because someone cares not

Past situations are gone, but forgotten you have not

I want to be free from the bondage of this world

I want to see the Father of this broken girl

I want my Father to make it right

I want my Father to shine his light

My heart is heavy and this room is dark

My heart is heavy and torn apart

In darkness lies fear and sadness 

In darkness are voices driving you to madness

The voices never whisper what is good

Yet the voices are clearly understood

Because they analyze my reality 

And sum it up with great finality 

Clear it up and wash it away

Clear it up with the truth today

For the longer a lie sits the deeper the stain

The purity of love we can never reclaim

Thirsty Roots Apricot Castor Oil & Tresemme Naturals Conditioner

So here was my old wish list...

1. Napa Valley Grapeseed Oil

2. Thirsty Roots Apricot Castor Oil

3. Tresemme Naturals Conditioner

4. Bee Mine Deja’s Hair Milk

5. 100% Pure Unrefined Shea Butter

I actually purchased the Tresemme Naturals Conditioner and I LOVE IT!!! It works so well and makes my hair extremely soft. It is almost as if it melts my curls in the shower if I let it sit on my hair just for a short period of time, maybe 3-4 minutes. The smell is pleasant and the consistency is not too thick but not too watery and runny. I only spent $4.99 on a huge bottle at target but I feel like this conditioner is worth at least three times that. Seriously, it is good stuff! It's my new favorite conditioner.

I also purchased the Thirsty Roots Apricot Castor Oil. This is also wonderful product. I did a review about it on my YouTube channel. That video is linked below. Please check it out and I definitely recommend purchasing this oil. Not to mention the packaging is very cute, but more than the packaging, the actual oil is excellent.
