Cornrows & Dry Two-Strand Twists

As I stated in a previous post, I am cornrow challenged, so I got my best friend Danielle to cornrow the front of my hair. I just love this style because it keeps the hair out of my face and its ADORABLE!

For this style I washed and conditioned my hair. Added Jane Carter's Nourish & Shine to my hair and let it air dry as the front of my hair was being cornrowed. Once the front was completed, I two-strand twisted the back and finished up with some coconut oil.

Here it is:

Konad Zebra Print Nails

Here is one of my absolute favorite designs done with my FAVORITE Konad stamping kit!  If you dont have one yet, you need to get one!! LOL

This was done after a home manicure:

1. Removed old nail polish
2. Soaked nails in soapy water with a lil oil in it
3. Trimmed cuticles a little
4. Shaped nails with nail file
5. Painted nails with Orly Bonder and Clear nail polish
6. Proceeded with STAMPING! :)
7. LEFT THIS STEP OUT... Remove excess zebra prints from around your finger nail with Q-tip and nail polish remover
8. Sealed the design with Sally Hansen Quick Dry Top Coat (Red Bottle)

Here are the results:

AWESOME TESTIMONY ~ From Dealer to Kneeler

I praise YOU God...

For a creating a changed heart in me!  

For Your unconditional love!  

For Your grace and mercy!  

For being a God of restoration, peace, love, endurance, healing and so much more!  

For the sister's in Christ You have assigned just for me!  

For the natural gifts that You have given me!  

For True FREEDOM! 

For BOLDNESS to profess Your Holy Name!  

For constantly using rotten ol' me to build Your Kingdom!

This month alone you have done some wonderful changing, molding and shaping in me that only You can be responsible for!  Hubby even noticed and commented via a spontaneous phone call thanking his wife on the changes that he had noticed that I hadn't even realize happened!  

 That is the physical evidence that its ALL YOU! :) Spiritually, You are the ONLY one who can change a heart but sometimes we can't see that far, it has to be a physical manifestation of You for us to see it.  I thank You for making it clear for us!

HOW AWESOME ARE YOU?!  With You EVERYTHING is just plain ol' better! 

I give Your name ALL the honor, glory and the praise!

Thank YOU God! :)

Curlformers

I purchased a Curlformer's kit from Sally's at the beginning of the year and did not use them as I realized I needed the extra long curlers due to my hair hanging out of the regular ones. :(

Used the curlers on my sisters hair last week and the curls came out gorgeous!

1. Washed and Conditioned her hair
2. Finger parted medium sized portions of her hair and added Aphogee Foam Setting lotion to her hair
3. Set her hair with the Curlformers and sat her under a cool bonnet style dryer for about 45 minutes. She actually winded up sleeping in the curlers.
4. Removed the curlers in the morning, separated the curls just a bit with some Coconut oil on my finger tips and here are the results:

I will need to save a few bucks so that I can buy some extra long curlers for myself!

I ♥ Curlformers!
