QUICK HAIR PRODUCT REVIEW


 
In fighting the battle of dry natural hair, it can be challenging for some to find a good leave in conditioner for our natural hair. For me a good leave in conditioner needs to be weightless, render great moisture leaving the hair soft and not leaving a coating look or feel to the hair.

DO IT YOUR SELF TUMMY WRAP

 
My first tummy wrap was done at a natural health care center in Richmond,Virginia at Healthy Heart Plus. I was just coming off of an almost month long juice fast. So I wanted to end my fast with a tummy wrap. I really enjoyed it.........I like being pampered by others too......LOL. I received amazing results, I dropped at least about four inches or more from my waist (can't remember the exact inches number, but is was a very noticeable difference).

You've got Flare!

Flare or bell bottoms jeans have all ways been in style to me. A nice pair of denim flare jean bottoms can look classy, chic, funky, boho......You get the point. You can achieve all sorts of looks with them. Flare bottoms come in a variety of finishes. While white is stunning, a darker rinse catches the eye too and adds a slimming effect.
