Zucchini & whoopyyun, yes you can do it.

So I have a passion which I have been secretly pursuing and that is giving back to my community,  helping people and contributing my own quota to the complete eradication of poverty and women empowerment. I believe poverty is the cause of most of the vices in our society and because am a Nigerian, I realised women has greater influence  on children than men (although young men are more participatory than before ),so my focus is on women and children, if we can stop it at family level its will be easier than going to police station or courtroom.
 Also,  women are at risk of maternal mortality due to poverty . I have worked with health-based organisation, so I can direct teenage girls and women with maternal issue to where they can get assistant for FREE.

As a fashion instructor, fashion designer, fashion stylist, I want to inculcate the two passions together, if you know teenage girls or a women with passion for fashion and indigent and is in Ibadan, please let them contact me on bbm:7B884FA7 or whatsapp:+2348035068092, and they will be empowered for free.

For the BEARD-GANG ; Growing out your beard

The new trend in men fashion is THE BEARD, it's like an accessory, oh!! How I love the beard-gang not just because my husband wear beard #lovestruck, but because its so cool and sexy.
"The moses beard" thats what i call it hehehe, is a commitment, the experience can even be a test of character and a process of self discovery

Whether or not you should grow beard depend largely on genetics and there is little or nothing one can do than to resign to faith, although there is a plastic surgery to tranfer hair from other part of the body to the cheek,its illegal in some country and legal in but its generally expensive, if you really really want beard and you have confirmed that your gene doesnt support growing beard, please visit your plastic surgeon for best advice.

 So, a fan request that we talk about growing beard and we decided to talk to the beard-gang, read up on it and here we go.
 follow these steps and lets know how it goes
1. Make up your mind to grow out and be committed to it, it takes hard work bro,
2. Exfoliate your skin once a week,  it will remove dead skin cells and make your face breathe well.
3.wash you skin morning and evening, clean skin encourages small hair to grow.
4. Check your face for ingrow hairs (bumps)
5. Get plenty of rest, sleep well bro
6. Incorporate vitamineB into your diet, increase your protein intake and eat vegetables and fruits.
7. LEAVE THE BEARD ALONE. Stay away from clipper, there will be temptation to shape or sculpture the new beard, DO NOT SHAPE IT. Shaving does not make your beard grow thicker.
You might suffer from itch and irritation (uneasy lies the head that wears the crown)

Keep up with us on keeping the beard, watch this space.

Naturalistas’ Guide to Healthy Hair in 3 Simple Steps

To all the people who mailed, pinged, call and texed to find out why I stopped blogging, thank you so much, it sures feels good to be loved. Am back.
This first post is for #teamnatural #nappynation
Before I decided to turn my hair natural, I was part pf the people that feels caring for natural hair will be rocket science, believe me its not, its as simple as A, B, C.

Step 1 – Cleanse When your hair and scalp is cleansed often they will be able to function at their optimal capacity. This means that a clean scalp will be free to grow as much healthy hair as possible. Similarly, hair that is cleansed often will be free of unnecessary dirt and grease which often lead to dry hair.

For the hair to really thrive, it’ll need to be washed at least twice a month with a gentle and moisturizing shampoo. You can also cleanse your hair in between these shampoo washes with a conditioner; this method is known as “co-washing”.

You’ll know when its time to wash your hair, when your scalp starts to feel itchy or flaky, or when your hair doesn’t have a pleasant smell or when it feels greasy and excessively dry. This will help guide your hair treatments and help you with healthier hair everyday.

Step 2 – Condition One of the reasons why it’s harder to grow African hair texture to long lengths is because its coily nature makes it difficult for the natural oils produced by the scalp to be evenly distributed to the entire length of the hair. As a result, the natural moisture on the hair shaft evaporates quickly, leaving the hair feeling dry. That is one of the reasons why tightly coiled (type 4) hair is known to be notoriously dry and vulnerable to breakage.

Before going natural, I never used a deep conditioning treatment and I would only use a conditioner to help detangle my hair. And when I washed my hair in braids, I never used a conditioner since I didn’t need to comb my braids. But after reading about the importance of deep conditioning treatments for the health of my hair, I made sure it was deep conditioned on a WEEKLY basis.

A deep conditioning treatment can be done by applying a store bought hair masque to freshly washed hair and leaving it in for at least 20 minutes. Hair that is chronically dry and damaged needs to be deep conditioned on a weekly basis. You can reduce this frequency as soon as you start to see major improvements in the health of your hair. I dont condition my hair weekly anymore

Conditioning the hair also includes applying a leave-in conditioner on the hair after you’ve washed it and before styling. This will help to keep the hair soft days after the hair has been washed and conditioned. Think of how soft your skin feels after applying lotion.

Step 3 – Style Aside from cleansing and conditioning, another reason why it seems like African hair is so difficult to grow is mainly due to the type of hairstyles that the hair is styled in. Hairstyles designed to make you forget about your natural hair will only lead to more damage. Tiny and heavy hairstyles are particularly damaging to the scalp and should be avoided. This is because damaged hair can be cut off and regrown, but a damaged hair follicle (the tiny roots that produce hair) might never heal. This means a damaged follicle might never regenerate new hair again. So it’s best to stay away from styles that compromise the health of the hair and scalp.

For a stylish hairstyle which will also help you retain length, I recommend low manipulative hairstyles such as buns, flat twists, twists and pin up styles. You’d be surprised at how much your hair grows with these simple hairstyles.

If these 3 simple steps are done properly and consistently, you should start to see results in the overall health of your hair in just a few short months.
