Starting my natural hair journey

So I am beginning a natural hair journey. I plan to avoid heat straightening my hair, try more natural styles, and allot more conditioning in an effort to encourage hair growth. I think the hardest part will be reducing how much I dye my hair. My roots are so grown out already, its killing me! But I have to try.  I have been reading web sites and watching videos on you tube so you can expect to see my hair like this allot more.

For this look I used a green eye shadow for the inner lid and a blue on the outer lid then I blended brown and black through the crease I paired the colors with a nude lip and soft peach blush.

 

Let me know if you would like to hear more about my hair journey.

Hair trials

So if you have been following me you know that I have been lightly MIA. I was on vacation and just not taking pictures of my makeup. Even when it is nice, I've just been out of it and I have no excuse I can only apologise to the bloggers I have followed and unfollowed since they did not update. I did not know how much work taking pictures, editing pictures, and uploading post could be. Now I know, and I ask you to be patient with me.


                        Now on to the hair trials I wanted to add a highlight to my hair.

Just like this one, dark reddish brown in the back and blond in the front.

But his is the "highlight" I ended up with, Orange! So needless to say this needed to be changed immediately! OH, because of course I was doing this the night before I had to be somewhere. So I grabbed the red dye I had on hand (I always buy two boxes my hair is really thick) and dyed it again for the second tome in less than 10 hours.

Final results

My hair did shed allot! But it's not orange and I'm not missing any patches. So I wont complain. This is the look for the next day's event.

Just to keep you interested I have put myself on a no makeup buying program until march! More info to follow soon.

My friday LOTD

This is my Friday makeup for the first day I got my new style, I was shooting for a Nicki Minaj esque look. PINK lipstick and bright eyes. Done with my coastal scents smokey palette and my mainly 120 palette.

I was really tired this morning sorry for the super fake smile

I'm sorry I haven't quite gotten back into the swing of taking pictures of my makeup. I've been trying to keep my makeup table in order and taking those pictures involves leaving makeup out on my table. I'll have to work it out.

I hope you enjoyed

My Hair Part 1

So I have a love hate relationship with my hair, I love my hair and would never cut it but I also hate dealing with it. My goal is always to grow it longer but the longer it is the longer it takes to get it together. It is thick and unruly, Lately I have been trying to be healthier and go to the gym. That has not helped in the hair department. In the above picture you can see my current style, natural This seems to be all I can do that works well with the gym, obviously my roots need to be dyed.

Here are some of my past styles:
