Style Profile: child (3yo) Cornrow Puff with Bangs




I did my daughter's hair last night. After a semi-fight, we got it done. She's wearing a cornrow puff with twist bangs.

If you or your daughter would like this style, email me at loveofhair@gmail.com. Or comment below.

Until next time...

My Style Profile: Remix!




















I just wanted to put up some photos of my style from the earlier post. I un-twisted the middle and rolled it up for this nice undo style! I love it!

Let me know what do you think?

Until next time...

Style Profile: Nubi Nubi Twists

Hey! Akiya here again with another style to profile.






I really like this style of twists because of the light fluffy feel to them. However, since the hair I use is a softer texture than the hair for the Kinky Twists or the Senegalese Twists, I do have to start the twist with a braid instead of a twists. But either way it's still a beautiful style.

Let me know what do you think by commenting below.

Until next...

Style Profile: Cornrow Bun


















Hello Again,

Today I'm adding photos of one of my clients I did 2 days ago...She wanted a simple bun with cornrows. And there it is!

Until I get my products up and going, I used the Taliah Waajid's Style & Shine cream. It is great, a nice hold, excellent shine, and wonderful smell.

Let me know what do you think?

Until next time...

My Hairstyle: Cornrow Mohawk with Twists














Hello again,

As promised I am going to keep this blog updated. I was at the salon yesterday, had some time before my client arrived, and my hair needed help! Lol

I was inspired to do the above style on myself, by one of my clients (I did something similar to her hair).

Anywho, in the above pictures, I blow dryer my hair and cornrowed the sides like a mohawk, while leaving the middle out.







Now, in this picture I twisted the hair that was left out to complete the style. The best thing about this style isthe 2 for 1! I can wear it with the twists, or wear a twist out, or blow out the middle and wear that! Ok....sooo....that's a 3 for 1 but you get my point lol!

That's all for now.
Until next time....

Oops! I neglected you!


Please forgive me...

Well, it's been quite some time since the last time I posted any style photos, product updates or crochet/earring making. Shame on me! But, in my defense I have been crazy busy with clients.

I'm now really going to make the effort to keep this blog current for you. Starting of with getting the style photos posted and videos as well.

Here are the updates/additions coming soon...

1.) October 31st - November 2nd I'll be in Atlanta for the Taliah Waajid Natural Hair Seminar (http://www.naturalhair.org she has a great product line as well). I can't wait to go and come back with all new natural hair styling I'm going to learn! And!, I'm taking my video camera with me to video blog the entire trip.

2.) November 1st (really the whole month) I'm going to be giving away goodie hair treats (samples of my new products) to my current clients and 5 goodie hair treats to viewers on my new videos.

Well, that's enough for now...especially since I'm posting this on my phone instead of my computer lol!

Until next time....
