Hair Candy For The Nappy and The Silky

Hey Beautiful Bosom's and Happy Holidays!

It is Christmas Eve(the night before my bday...yes I must plug myself lol) and since I have been back on my natural hair journey I have been doing really cool things with my hair and spending a lot of time with it! You know that bonding period :).So in these beginning stages I have two blog sites that are simply the best, CurlyNikki.com and bglhonline.com,these sites are absolutely remarkable!

Down to the hair candy! So I am rocking a TWA(teeny weeny afro) at the moment and cute hair candy makes for a cute, sassy, dainty, and sophisticated hairstyle.
While I was browsing Curly Nikki's site I stumbled across, what I consider, the most magnificent and intricate piece of hair candy! TADAAA! I fell in love!

I snooped around a little more and found a great site for hair candy...some of you ladies may feel that the prices of these hair accessories are a bit much but it wouldn't hurt to treat your hair to a few tasty sweets every once in a while!

So head on over to Andreasbeau.com and shop...or window shop, for nice treats to spice or refresh your staple hair style!

Peace, Love, and Hair Candy!



Have a Merry Christmas and be safe!

Beautiful Bosom Art of the Day!

I feel like this piece of art is a depiction of all of the Hottentot Venus...or some may know it as the Venus Hottentot. However her messy hair and protruding facial features are sending off another message. What's your interpretation of this photo...I personally feel it as a work of ART...She is a Beautiful Bosom.

Back on My Natural Sh*T

" Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore"...haaaa don't you remember those days? Me too! I remember getting a textlax at the age of three because " I was so tender head", this was true, I really was tender at the head growing up and aint shit changed but my age lol.

Who am I fooling? I love my nappy head! I have been back and forth so many times between my natural hairstyles, relaxer, and weaves (which I just took out). I cant deny my roots literally lol. So something always sparks my natural tendencies...night before last I said to myself "yo just do it to the fullest if you are going to do it"...so I took my weave out and cut the rest of the texturized ends off...I felt so relieved!

" Yah girl is back!" that's what I felt like...

All of the techniques that I have viewed on Youtube and hair care forums are now going to be implemented in my hair care regimen!
A friend of mine is natural and she gave me the whole rundown on how she keeps her hair in good condition...her notes are posted below word for word and there are even sites that she suggested. I appreciate her for that!

What can I say? I'm Me!

Natural hair care-Mine's Methods

Pre-Poo Mix

-Coconuot oil

-Grapeseed Oil

-Olive Oil

-Shea Butter

-Palm Oil

Mix all together, dampen hair and leave overnight or all day the DAY BEFORE you shampoo

Shampoo

Use products that SULPHATE FREE…it strips your hair

Organix is a good line, and Aveda has sulphate free products

After I shampoo I put Cholesteral on my hair and use the denman through it.

I rinse and the denman my hair again and two strand twist sections or style any other way.

I moisturize with coconut oil. Sometimes I mix it with shea butter and palm oil. Then I run it in my hair and finger style and go.

Two to three times a week I put castor oil on my edges.

I take a regular multi-vitamin and try to drink lots of water

On days when I feel my hair is dry I put just coconut oil on my hair before I go to bed. I also put the Afro detangler every other day, especially at the roots and tips.

Black Beauty In Africa?? No Savannah, GA

When I saw this photograph of my dear friend I immediately ask her if I could use it for the site. She asked me if I was serious, lol, YES! Ladies this photo is absolutely a work of art. She is truly a Beautiful Bosom taking the storm head on. Literally this photo was taken while a storm was coming.

Truly breath taking....ahhhhh :)

Doesn't this look like Africa or somewhere exotic? Well it is Savannah, GA.

Healthbeat-Triple Negative

So My Girl Told Me...

Good evening Beautiful Bosom's. How is that progress coming along? Well I wanted to inform you ladies on something that my girlfriend educated me on today at dinner. We were talking about what my next post should be about and she asked me had I ever heard of "triple negative"? Never had I heard of this before...what are you thinking this is ladies? Well it is a rare form of breast cancer that effects young African-American women and women of African descent.



Let me educate you while I educate myself.

I URGE YOU to view this link to read about triple negative breast cancer and to learn about a black woman that is living with it daily.

http://www.cnn.com/2008/HEALTH/conditions/06/16/hm.triple.neg.breast.cancer/index.html


This is not something to take lightly. I want you to take care of your Beautiful Bosom's. So continue to get your regular check ups. This preventative behavior will catch something as bad as AAA- before it spirals out of control. It is also important that you stay up on educating yourself on the health factors that our population is struggling with on a day-to-day basis. If you don't know then no one will tell you. So please take the time out to read the health section of your Essence magazine and your newspapers. The dissemination of this information is pertinent to our longevity in this world.

Let us continue to blossom together.

Turn On Your Feel Good Music

Yes ladies...I couldn't leave you for the night just yet. I was playing around on the blog trying to get things all prim and proper when I discovered that I can put music on here! YESs lol. So of course me being the self-proclaimed soul-tress that I am you know that I had to put a nice mix of Jilly from Philly on the spot. Something about her music just makes you feel sexy and relaxed. So go on ladies...while you are laying it down for the night be sure to light your candles, dim the lights, and sip your wine or hot tea, whatever your preference and contemplate about your next move in life.

Peace Beautiful Bosom's

First Things First: Getting Your Mind Right and Finding Your Beautiful Bosom

When I put it out in the nation that I was going to and wanted to start up a blog that focuses on black woman's health and their inner beauty I never thought that I would get the few responses that I did. I am grateful for that. Not only do I want this blog to be informative on health tips, I want to be able to bring it full circle and discuss all of the attributes that formulate the Beautiful Bosom. I know that some of my ladies out there are wondering what a Beautiful Bosom is and I am here to define that as the inner you.

Moving right along...

Ladies, I thought that it would only be appropriate to begin this blog with an inhale exhale moment...breathe in...and breathe out. This is the first thing that we should do to get our minds and bodies on one accord. Free yourself from all of your unnecessary worries and begin to work on the inner YOU! I ask you what it is that you want to accomplish sooner than later?

Let us begin to set goals for ourselves. Weight loss, hair maintenance, financial stability, your walk with Christ, dumping bad habits (unworthy men lol), and many more "get right" factors play a large role in accomplishing our Beautiful Bosom's. Please believe that these are all things that can be achieved, all you have to do is believe in yourself.


Ladies let us blossom together to conquer our Beautiful Bosom's.

I will be back to give you more on the next go round. In the meantime feel free to hit me up with discussion topics @ Somaramuhammad@gmail.com

Peace
