My Trip to The Bassett Custom Shop (Raleigh, NC)

Hello Beauties!

How many of you are fans of DIY projects and channels like HGTV?  (raises hand)  Although I have yet to try a DIY project, I am a fan of watching shows on HGTV like Flea Market Flip.  It simply amazes me how they take items and turn them into something completely new and unique.  With this in mind, I was extremely excited when my former classmate, Sarah, invited me to a new store in Cameron Village called The Bassett Custom Shop.

Natural Hair | Should You Rock Curly/Kinky or Straight Extensions?

Hello Beauties!

Now that I am back to reality and rocking my natural hair again, I wanted to address a popular question that many women face when deciding on extensions.

Should I wear curly or straight extensions?  

The answer to this question is simply going to depend on the individual, but after wearing both types of extensions, I wanted to share some advantages and disadvantages of both hair types for women with natural hair.  At the end of the post, let me know what you prefer!

Perfect Locks Virgin Hair: Final Review

Hello Beauties!

I had a sad moment on Friday.  (deep sigh)  After eight weeks, I decided to take down my protective style.  Throughout these weeks, I have been rocking a partial sew in with Perfect Locks Virgin Wavy Hair.  This was the longest I have ever worn a sew in and my first experience with virgin hair.  You may have read my first impressions and update on the hair throughout my journey and today, I wanted to give you my final thoughts on the hair.

Adventures in Thrifting: New or Barely Used

Hello Beauties!

I love finding great pieces at thrift stores!  On my last thrifting adventure, I found a named brand blazer for the low.  Over the weekend, I checked out my local Goodwill with my mom and I found even more awesome items.  My grand total for three items I purchased this weekend was $8.

Aveeno Positively Radiant Intensive Night Cream Review

Hello Beauties!

One thing you may have learned about me recently on Facebook is that I'm passionate about skincare.  I'm an advocate for healthy skin and because of this, I was excited when Influenster gave me the opportunity to review the Aveeno Positively Radiant Intensive Night Cream.

No matter your age, night cream is essential.  To give a thorough opinion of this cream, I used it throughout the course of two weeks.  Before we get into the review, let's learn more about Aveeno Positively Radiant Intensive Night Cream.
