Chemical Burns, Walmart Salons, and Crappy Customer Service

Prior to moving to Kentucky, I decided it would be a good idea to get one more relaxer. While I probably could of gone a bit longer before I had my hair relaxed, I preceded to go to the hair salon. Unfortunately, I left with serious regret. Trying to find someone "good" to do my hair seemed like I was asking for too much out of life. Not to offend, but my experience with hairdressers, specifically blacks ones, left me afraid to get attached since too often they would be in the wind before I knew it. It took me over 4 years to find a hair dresser who wouldn't burn me or do a horrific job when I was in college. When I returned home, I was happy to find a new girl named Whitney at the Family Style salon in Walmart. She was young, but she was passionate and not complacent, two things that some of my previous hairdressers had issues with. The nape of my neck prior to my last relaxer and about 3 years after a bad chemical burn that gave me a keloid (treated with medi

Review: 14-Day Acai Berry Cleanse

The 14-Day Acai Berry Cleanse is a cleanse that I have used a few times over the last several years. I even used it as recently as about 2 months ago but ended up having some sort of bug the last day, which made my results inconclusive. But this time around, I am determined to jump start this weight loss. The cleanse, the nasty part of my weight loss, is my first step to my 2 month weight loss . Today marks day two of my weight loss plan as well as my cleanse. So what is the purpose of a cleanse? This particular cleanse is meant to cleanse the colon of toxins and waste. The effects are similar to using a laxative but (in my opinion) not as harsh. However, according to the Live Strong website , colon cleanses are only temporary solutions: It is quite possible to lose some weight using a colon cleanser, but this loss is at least partly the result of water weight. Colon cleansers increase the rate of fecal movement within the colon, which limits the amount of fluids ab

Dupe List: MAC's Ambering Rose and Lorac's Hollywood

So I went by the MAC counter today looking for Dolly Mix. Unfortunately, they were sold out so I just lingered around to see if anything else caught my eye. I picked up several but was instantly drawn to one, Ambering Rose. It was beautiful. Almost as if NARS Taj Mahal and MAC Coopertone could have a baby, then Ambering Rose would be the offspring. It is a beautiful burnt orange/brown color with shimmer. Very flattering for darker skin tones. But once I got in the car, I started to realize the swatch on my hand looked really familiar. Then it hit me, it looked a lot like Lorac's Hollywood blush. As soon as I got home, I pulled the Lorac blush out of it's draw and swatched it. The two looked too close. Hollywood has a bit of a more brassy orange color to it than Ambering Rose, but at certain angles...........they might as well be the same. I love my Hollywood blush and while Ambering Rose is a deeper color, there was no point in keeping both. So I returned it back

Wish List Wednesday 10/4/17

It seems like the only posts I can push out before my internet decides to betray me are my wish lists. However, I have a few posts I am working on and will have the up this week. Also, if you weren't aware, the link to all of these products are in the subheadings if not in the description. With that said, let's get started on this week's wish list... Lucky Break Olive Oversized Jacket from Lulus I stumbled across this jacket on my Pinterest feed and immediately fell in love. First off, my favorite color is green (in most shades) and I love a good jacket. With us moving back to the mainland, where there are actual seasons, I am excited for layers. I love the fact that when you scroll to the bottom of the page, there is a detailed description of size. Even better, the reviews that show the buyer's measurements so you can compare. While I'm sure my husband won't love the $62 price tag, I feel like that is nothing for a good, qual

Wish List Wednesday 9/6/17

It is Wednesday and my wish list has only grown. With a move on the horizon, quite a few of my upcoming wishes involve activities and places in Hawaii. Now let's kick of my wish list for the week! Staycation at Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa Aulani is located in Ko'Olina, about 20 minutes from my house. Now you may ask why this is on my wish list when I already reside in "paradise" and this place is only a short drive from my home? It is simple: Aulani is a nice break from reality. The view is gorgeous and they are known for their amazing pool, which is like a mini water park. I want to experience as much of the tourist side of Hawaii as I can while on the island and staying in a nice hotel is one. The price is a bit high, hence why this is on my wish list. We have done the character buffet breakfast a couple of times, now I want to take a little "staycation" there. They offer cheaper week day rates on their rooms, so may
