How I Deep Condition Natural Girls Hair

hairstyles for little black girls
Brown Girls Hair




This video shows how I deep condition my daughters natural hair. Our hair loves Kera Care products. I am using their Deep Moisturizing Masque.

First, I washed her hair with Kera Care Hydrating Detangling Shampoo. Then I put her hair into 4 sections. Next, I applied the deep moisturizing masque to her hair in small sections. Being careful to get each strand covered with product. Then I twisted each small section and moved to the next section.

I put a Adama Plastic Cap over it and left it on for 30 minutes. You can place her under the dryer if you choose. This time, I decided not to sit her under the dryer because we have been staying away from heat for a while.

After 30 minutes, I rinsed it out (with her twist still in). Last, I added Kera Care Leave-In Conditioner. I put it on each twist by unraveling each, adding the product, and twisting it back. After I was done, I put her night cap on and sent her to bed.

The next day, I choose to do twists on her hair. You can see pictures of it HERE! I'll post the video of the process next week!

A'Che & her chalk!

My daughter, A'Che, loves Spring & Summer Time!! One reason is because the weather is so nice which allows her to play outside AND she knows that school is almost out!! One of her favorite summer activities is playing with chalk in the driveway, on the sidewalk, and even on her trampoline!

4 Pc Chalk Holder


The great thing about chalk is that it only cost $1 at Dollar Tree! The cute 4 piece chalk holder, the 20 pieces of chalk, and the 6pc egg chalk were all $1 each!! You can't beat that for great outside time with your kids!!

6 Piece Egg Shaped Chalk

20 pc Sidewalk Chalk


Chalk is great for girls and boys! Boys can draw fun pictures and they can also play Tic-Tac-Toe!! A'Che's favorite things to draw are hopscotch and jelly fish!! LOL

Influenster #XOXOVoxBox Review


XOXOVoxBox


This is the most recent VoxBox that I received from Influenster back in February. Here's a rundown of all of the items that came in the box:

Adore Me Lingerie Set
Tide Pods with Febreze
Skinfix Hand Repair Cream
Land's End discount code
Colgate Optic White Toothbrush + Built-in Whitening Pen
3oz Colgate Optic White Toothpaste
John Freida Beach Blond Collection (shampoo,conditioner,and sea salt spray)
John Freida Luxurious Volume 7 Day Volume In Shower Treatment

My favorite items that are in this box are the Adore Me Set, Tide Pods, and the Colgate Toothbrush + Paste.

Adore Me


This box provided a code where I could go to the Adore Me website and pick out a set that I like for free. I chose this cute red and pink set which was perfect for Valentines Day! I love they way they box the items up. When you open the box you see HELLO ADORABLE!! I think that is a sweet touch! The undies are of good quality and after washing them they held together well.


Tide Pods with Febreze

I loved the way my clothes smelled and felt after washing them with the pods. They are so very easy to use. Just throw one in the wash, add your load, and turn it on! No messy powder or liquid to deal with. These are must haves for me!




My hubby snagged my Colgate items from the box! He used the toothbrush, toothpaste, and pen daily! I must say, we could notice a slight change in the color of his teeth. They are a little whiter. He has been using it for about a month. So we can conclude that it does work. Even if it's just a slight change at this point.

I just wanted to highlight my favorites that were in this box. I'm looking forward to the next one soon!


"I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes."

Fighting Childhood Cancer 5K Walk/Run


This past Saturday, my daughter and I were able to attend the Hailey Bankhead Foundation 5K Run/Walk that supports the fight against childhood cancer. My original post about the event shared the story of Hailey Bankhead, who is a cancer survivor, and also shared pictures of when my husband and I first met her and her lovely family.

My daughter wasn't at the event when we met Hailey, so she was very excited and eager to met her at the 3rd Annual 5K Run/Walk that we attended. First, let me say that it was an honor to be able to be support an organization that is about supporting children and families that are faced with and fighting through this terrible disease.

Hundreds of supporters showed up to run and walk including the Clayton County Police and Fire Department. There were bouncy houses, vendors, and plenty of food for everyone to eat. They even had health screenings and live entertainment.

Although it was literally freezing that day, we all had a great time! Here are a few pictures that I was able to snap. Some of them I grabbed from the Hailey Foundation Facebook page!

Save the date 9.12.15 for the next event, "Under the Stars"! We attended this formal dinner/ball last year and we had a fantastic time! Be sure to mark it on your calendar and support!
