Hello to all of my lovely naturals,
First I would like to do a quick update on my lip gloss...okay its just alright so back to the drawing board. Now last week when I did my hot oil treatment I placed my hair into individual braids instead of my usual two part twists. Once I got tired of the braids I took two braids and with some whipped shea butter I placed them into twists and twisted those into bantu knots. I let the knots stay in for a couple of days and then I unraveled those and placed my curly braids into a nice up do...check out the pics below and then check out my video on youtubehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=desKjK62v7s let me know what you think.
Always,
Verano

Stylin n Profilin: Braid Out Up-Do for the Holidays
Hello to all of my lovely naturals,
I know that everyone wants to look their best on the holidays, so this is one of the hairstyles that I plan on rocking this holiday season. To attain this hairstyle I co-washed my hair and braided it in plaits and applied my whipped shea butter. The next day I took the plaits down and swooped the bangs then pinned the rest into a fro hawk. After that I secured the bottom of the hawk with bobby pins and let the rest hang out in a fluffy poof. I love it and I hope you will too check out the pics below.

Stylin n Profilin: Fat Twist Out w/ Twist Headband
Hello to all my lovely naturals!!!!
Okay so I apologize about not posting yesterday but I was filming my video for youtube which I posted this afternoon so check me out at MzGrimmage!!! and tell me what you think. I know that I have been posting Sun-Thurs but now that I have my youtube up and working (well it needs a little bit more work) I will have to balance or better yet juggle the two, that being said there might be some changes coming; I will let you all know when I figure it out myself. Now that's out of the way I want to show you all this easy hair do that I did for my friend and fellow blogger Metaphor. I co-washed the hair with Trader Joes Nourish Spa Conditioner and deep conditioned it with Shea Moisture Deep Treatment Masque. Then I hit it with my whipped shea butter and I applied my natural spritzer on it, detangled, and twisted it into about 7/8 fat twists which then were pin curled. Once everything dried (she slept on it) I put some castor oil on my fingers and un raveled the twists, poofed the hair. I sectioned off the top and twisted from one ear to the next then secured the end of the twist with a bobby pin that I hid behind her ear. In order to maintain this hair style all you need to do is twist the back part of your hair every other day (or everyday its up to you) and un ravel in the morning. Check it out drop a line and tell me what you think.

Stylin n Profilin: How to revamp that braid/twist out!
Hello to all of my lovely naturals,
Since it is winter time and I know that all of you lovely natural divas are in straight protect mode, we could all use a couple of pointers on how to make our styles last just a bit longer. After a couple of days of wearing my twist out the shaft of my hair no longer has any type of curl so what is a girl to do?!
let me know if you all have any questions or any hairstyles that you use to revamp your hair please let me know!
Always,
Verano
