Hair Hair Hair and oh yea HAIR!

At the beginning of this year I started to embark on a very special journey.. my natural hair journey. Similar to other Afro-American women I began to research and realize how harmful perm (A.K.A the "creamy crack") is to African hair. I began to see the correlation of stunted hair growth and hair loss that run rampant in the African-American community with the usage of perm. Before I truly decided I wanted to go natural I had to completely asses that this was something I wanted to do, and I had to prepare myself for the possible negative perspectives *cough cough*  haters that I would encounter.

 Seeing my mom go through the process gave me the motivation and education on what to do. So finally after 4 months of transitioning right before my high school graduation( which is a very short time compared to most) I, did the big chop, in my bathroom, slowly cutting away the chemically processed hair. It was scary but I did it. I came to the realization that THIS is how God created me and that I could not base my ideas of beauty on this Euro-centric society. So I say all this to say this post is not so much focused on fashion but on the beauty of natural hair and to give a little encouragement to those thinking about going natural or currently natural but having wavering thoughts about how wonderful natural hair is!! I dedicate this one to my first natural hair role model, my mom.

Enjoy BlackSheeps!

Adieu to Christian Lacroix

The recession has finally infiltrated the fashion world :( It first major victim was Christian Lacroix. He was most famous for his eccentric houte couture looks and runway shows. His clothing were ascetically appeasing however lacked the ability to connect to everyday consumers. He luxurious style ultimately the down fall of his line. So here’s to you Christian! AU REVOIR!
