UPDATE: ONE YEAR SINCE BIG CHOP

If you remember from this post, then you remember when I chopped off all of the heat damaged hair that I was suffering from. I started my natural hair journey in 2010 and become completely natural in 2012. My hair reached all the way to near waist length but I always had to chop away hair due to heat damage, or because the ends were breaking constantly. Last year, Sept 1st 2015, I decided to cut off ALL of the heat damaged and color in my hair. It left me with ear length (lol) hair. I mean, I couldn't do anything with it, but I found ways to make it work. Now in Sept 2016, I am almost near where I started with healthier strands. My hair is so thick, even, and healthy that I now hate to even mess with it.

So here is the long awaited one-year before and after. To view my complete hair journey from the beginning, click here.

TRUMP TWEETS A MESSAGE FOR AMERICANS AMID DACA SCANDAL

With the rest of the United States still trying to come to grips with the devastation that occurred one week ago in Texas by Hurricane Harvey, Trump takes to twitter and gives a labor day tweet for Americans. That may not seem like a big deal but for about 800,000 DACA recipients, it comes as a slap in the face. What is DACA? DACA stands for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. It's American immigration policy founded by former president, Barack Obama in June 2012. DACA allows certain illegal immigrants who entered the country as minors, to receive a renewable two-year period of deferred action from deportation and eligibility for a work permit. Well, "All-American" president, Donald Trump, wants to do away with the program as he feels America should be ran by Americans. Meaning, only American items to be made by American workers. That's interesting, considering numerous women Trump has been with and married to did not come to this country born American

HAIR OF THE DAY: BROOKE BAILEY

For those of you wondering if this is all of Brooke Bailey's hair.....I can let all of the inquiring minds know that YES, this is indeed her real hair, and not only is this her real hair, she is also natural. She was asked on twitter if she perms or presses her hair out with a hot comb. She had responded by saying @brookebaileyinc LOL ... I don't perm or press my hair. In this pic I washed it and let it air dry. It seems as if she always had beautiful hair. Her hair is absolutely gorgeous and looks very healthy. Her natural haircare line (in which she uses for her hair) will be launched shortly. I guess I may have to give it a try. Considering how shiny her hair looks, it can't be that bad.

Do you watch Black Ink NY? If so, did you notice how Sky's confidence level went to over "a hunnit" after she got the plastic surgery she has been dyin gto get. I mean she always had an outgoing personality, but now "it's all the way up." Congrats to Sky and that new body. What I love is that she didn't go too overboard like most people with injections/implants. Before : After:
