Straightened my hair

So I got the straight hair fever last week and straightened my hair. I went to Azan's on Davenport, one of my girls just started working there so I got a really good deal $40 because she used me as a model, prices range from $60 and up depending on what you are getting done. I haven't had my hair straight in over 2 years so I was quite excited to see how long it was and how I would look. I find that my face looks slimmer with straight hair LOL. I was at the salon for over 4 hours yes, I got a treatment, hand massage and I had to cut alot of my hair off, wasn't too happy but hey its only hair, I cut 5 inches off. I loved the way my hair looks straight, a stylist at the salon was telling me that I should texturize my hair so it would be more manageable. I added a picture of the straight hair, let me know what you think.

You must treat your hair when you color it!!!!


The advantages are that usually it looks better and it's fun to change up your look. Disadvantages are that it can dry out your hair, it can damage it, and usually once you start dying your hair you always have to because if you want the dye out then you have to grow it out or try to match it up to your natural color. And for the damaging your hair part if you use moisturizing products, deep conditioners and treatments then you can try to eliminate a bit of damage. Its very important to treatment your hair with color or without color because of the environment we live it the hair gets damage in the summer and the winter. When your hair gets colored its stripped of its natural color which damages the follicles. If you color your hair make sure to treat it at least once a week. Sundays is my hair day usually later on in the evening. I did a photo shoot with L'oreal in March and they colored my hair and so I have to treat my hair. If you look at my picture you can see the color, I loved it it really brought out the color in my eyes but at the same time it really damaged my hair. I know it can be time consuming because you have to let the treatment sit in your hair for at least 15 mins. Well why not wash the hair then put the treatment in at this time run a bath and relax in the bath for 15 mins put on a nice cd and just relax. Pamper your hair, we all know girls that if your hair ain't looking fly you don't feel fly.

First step is the hardest

People get excited when I tell them about Curlylox. The usual response is "Wow you have your own business, I would love to do that." And they always have a story about their idea/s and how they would love to do it. Why not do it? I ask, well I don't have the money and I don't know where to start. Most people love the idea of working for themselves but don't have the drive or determination to go out and do it. Let me tell you this sh**t is not easy especially selling over the internet. Yeah you get tons of people on your site but you have to persuade them in less than a minute to buy, thats were the hard part comes in. Dealing with the competition and the bad talking cause people want to make it just as bad as I do and think giving me bad flack will pay off for them. Ain't nobody learn "what goes around comes around." Over the last year I have been learning as I go, as I said in other blogs I didn't have a business plan or an idea of how Curlylox was going to run. Don't get me wrong I definitely love this but it ain't paying all the bills yet so I am working real hard at it still. Do I ever feel like giving up???? Do I ever wonder what I am doing??? Yes and No!! I love a challenge I have never liked any of my jobs enough to want to work for someone else. When I first started out I had 2 months I had absolutely no sales, hmmmmm but thats business. Just got to keep pushing on, what keeps me motivated is my Mom and BF they give me all the support one needs to carry on. My mom says that all those who made it to the top started where I am, so I remember that. What is a really good inspiration as well is a magazine called Entrepreneur they interview entrepreneur across North America and they tell their stories, very uplifting.

Honestly the hardest step is the 1st but once you take that step you are well on your way. Trust me!!!!! For now my head is up, positive vibes and taking it one day at a time!!!
