☆.Natural Hair: Bantu Knot out 'Attempt'.☆

Heya guys Happy Sunday!

So I know its been a while since I've posted anything on my natural hair, tutorials etc. I do still love my natural hair but you know it can get a bit tiring sometimes (lets just be honest) the twisting, the braiding, finding a style that works and lasts! Nonetheless I decided to give my natural hair some loving this last week and I've reconnected with my beautiful Maine once again ^-^.

Below is my attempt at a Bantu Knot out, although I didn't get the results I expected I realised that my knots where far too big for me to get enough definition (especially having a 4b-c texture). Next time I try this style I will use smaller sections.

There's so much good music out at the moment with even better videos to match, so I thought I'd compile a list of my 'Videos of The Moment' for y'all, enjoy!

☆.Natural Hair: My new purple hair!.☆

Heya guys,

So by now you should know how much I'm obsessed with colour. A couple months back when I was in the UK I got my hair cut, blowdried, flat ironed and coloured at the 'Darren Scott' salon in Warwick Avenue.

I first head about the salon through a review I read on one of my fav natural hair site, Care For Your Hair

This was my hair to begin with, it had been previously coloured with box dye, you can check out the post on this here.

They used 522 L'oreal with 6% magarel

The colour was left on for about 20 minutes to process

☆.An 'Ajebors' Camp Experience...(Pics & Vid).☆

My dear readers I ask for your forgiveness I know I have not posted in a while, I blame the Nigerian internet tbh but hey I'm back! Let me share with you some pics from my Camp in Oyo state and a video of my experience.

First of all let me say that I truly did enjoy my camp experience overall I would rate it 7/10! I think the reason I enjoyed the experience the most is because of the kind of personality I have, I enjoy trying different things and making the most out of every situation....but camp is definitely NOT for everyone lol!

A few things I didn't mention in the vid:

1- They did not expect us to use the toilet shown, we had pits outside. (lol not any better right)

2- We also had training for different skills (SAED) e.g/ Cooking, Craft work, Computing etc.

☆.If I could speak to Nollywood Directors.....☆

You know that feeling you get when you're watching a Nollywood movie...or is it just me that loves watching Nigerian/ Ghanian movies.

Well heres my rant below on all the things I wish I could ask these so called directors if I got the chance....Enjoy!

                                           Until next time guys...Peace & God Bless..
