Time after time, the Nat-life Gurus go on a witch hunt in search of the next thing to shame people about. (You know it’s true, last year it was hair color). So now the proverbial “Big Bad Wolf” is Weave! Are there valid concerns as to the overall health of wearing a weave? Absolutely. AsContinue reading “Weavie Wonder”

Nappy Out Loud 1.0 ~ The Movement
I know that this site is for naturally curly and kinky hair and there are many of you that are not African-American. Know that I love you, but in this post, I’m not talking directly to you. However, I am a believer that we can all learn from one another and apply universal lessons introspectively withoutContinue reading “Nappy Out Loud 1.0 ~ The Movement”
Nappy Out Loud 0.1

The Decision
I listen to The Breakfast Club every morning on iHeart Radio, and since it’s Monday, I thought it would be appropriate to title this post after the famous segment that sometimes feels real, but there’s no way that it is because the stuff is just so extreme, “The Decision”. I chose this name because allContinue reading “The Decision”

Life on the other side of my loc attempt
I have been having the time of my life since I took my locs down. There are days that I miss being able to just wake up and go, but not many. Locs are beautiful, on everybody else but me. 🙂 I’m posting some pictures of the fun I’ve been having since taking myContinue reading “Life on the other side of my loc attempt”
Silk vs Satin
So I’ve been pushing the use of the Satin bonnet, scarf and pillow case, but I noticed that Momma Kim Kimble has been promoting Silk. I thought I’d take the time to give you a quick overview of why both are good options and let you hash it out in the comments, because overall, I’dContinue reading “Silk vs Satin”
I unlocked…. kind of
Those of you that follow @OohMyHair on Twitter know that a couple of weeks ago, I jumped off the loc wagon. It took some concentration and a half a bottle of: There are thousands of videos and blogs on how to do this, so I will get down to the WHY behind my decision.
