Hair Flip or Hair Flop??: Rihanna's new hair style

In my book Rihanna can do no wrong! I love her new hair style.  It is big, bold, and fabulous like herself.  I would like to see her face to get a better feel for the style, but I am just loving the Chaka Khan/Dianna Ross look. What would you rate it?  ::HAIR FLIP::

Red Carpet Hair: GOLDEN GLOBES 2011


This years 2011 Golden Globes was well worth the wait.  The gowns were gorgeous and most importantly the hair was stunning.  A lot of hairstyles stood out to me on the red carpet because they were all styles that could be easily achieved. 

One of my favorite looks was the chic and sleek ponytail.  Jennifer Lopez looks GREAT from head to toe!

Is this the same girl from Dawsons Creek?  Michelle Williams short boyish cut really gave her the edge she needed.  Not a big fan of the dress but she gets a 10 for the haircut!

Now if I had to pick my the best look of the night it would have to be January Jones.  It was the perfect hairstyle for the perfect dress. She looks like she stepped right out of a black and white movie.  I know I am going to give all these red carpet looks a try, you should too.

Hair Flipper of the week : Garmai Momolu

This weeks hair flipper is wardrobe stylist, blogger extraordinaire, and one of my favorite cousins Garmai.  She puts the 'S' in style with her bold hair cut and natural curls.  This look really shows off her beautiful cheek bones.


I love her hairstyle because some people would think there is not much you can do with a short cut, but she demonstrates that there are a variety of looks that can be pulled off with her cut! 
Check out her blog http://thehautecollective.com/ to get your fashion fix and more info on her :)

NEW YEAR HAIR: 2011 HAIR GOALS

Today I decided to write my new year goals down to get my new year off to the right start.  As of now I only have 14 goals down with most of them having to do with better my life, lose weight, and all that good stuff.  While writing down all my goals I decided it would be nice to have a separate goal list for my hair.  I have talked about changing hairstyles before, but now that we are about to go into a new year every girl should have a list of hair goals. From cutting it to growing it out, change needs to start now!



GOAL # 1
Staying natural
The other day I was so tempted to go down to CVS and get that creamy crack! 0_o  My natural hair was getting on my nerves and being the impatient person that I am (aka Sagittarius) I want things to happy now and fast.  Since things don't work like that I had to calm myself down and realize I have come to far to turn back now! 





GOAL # 2
Work on keeping my hair healthy
I have been keeping up with the maintainence of my hair by keeping it moisturized, using shampoos/conditioners with the right ingredients, and making sure those ends are cut.  (regiment post coming soon)                                                                 

                                                                                              

 GOAL #3
Edgy Hairstyles
If you know me then you know I like to keep things simple when it comes to my hair.  Just a simple straight sew in.  But in 2011 I am going to go wild and try something different, that is edgy and HOT!! ;-)




GOAL #4
Letting go of the security blanket
 Last but not least, I am going to do something I never thought I be doing and that is letting go of the weave!  for years I have had something in my hair from micros to twist, and now sew ins.  I have just gotten so use to "my weave" that I do not see my self with out it.  So for 2011 my biggest challenge is going to be separating myself slowly from the weave.  Its is a challenge I am willing to take. (post coming soon about my challenge).

What are your New Year hair goals?



"Don't be tardy for the party.."



Hey everyone! I know it has been a while since I have done a post and I have not neglected you all, I have just been really busy trying to get adjusted to Atlanta, get a good job, and just balance everything out.  But now that things are slowly getting back in order I am going to start posting more, and answering all and any questions! I will be make some changes to the blog, from the name, to even getting a little more personal.  I am excited!!  Lets start the new year off with a BANG!!  ::HAIR FLIP::
