Slip Free Scarf…
Let’s start off acknowledging that there is no such thing unless it’s a bonnet with unbearably tight elastic. The lies people tell to sell product is unreal.

They’re all going to laugh at you…
This post is for the sister sitting at home contemplating making the change. She’s sitting in front of her computer looking for videos, blog posts and comments for encouragement to do something she’s been wanting to do for quite some time. “Why doesn’t she just start the process and see how she likes it?” says…

Here’s a few go to looks, sure to counter cantankerous tresses.When in doubt, wild it out. Lucky for all of us the Bohemian…
