I got my hair did Y'all...whenever i'm in Nigeria, if you dont know by now i ALWAYS get my hair put in twists..its much cheaper and quicker. it cost me 4,000 Naira which is the equivalent of £16, Can you say BOOYAH! (not even a pack of weave is that cheap). That's why i love doing my hair there and one thing i can say is they do it WELL!..I used the popular hair brand called Xpressions in colour #33 and highlights of colour #30. This will be Number the 3rd hairstyle for the protective style challenge I joined on YouTube. Peep the pics below!
I lurvvvvv my twists, i think next time though ill get them done slightly bigger as i already had to take out some from the front so it wouldn't break the hair there. Watch out for some style tutorials!
I don't know about you, but i always anticipate the next Ovation Christmas Carol theme song. Each year Ovation (the popular Nigerian International magazine) gathers artists from all over to feature on their Christmas theme song. As far as I remember, this has been happening for at least two years and this year was no different. With artists such as Wizkid, Iceprince (zamani), Jaywon and Sir Shina Peters Ovation delivered an incredible collaboration to mark this years Christmas.
I love the idea behind Ovation International's videos, it promotes Nigerian Artists, the popular and not so popular ones.
Check the video out below and ones from previous years.
So I tried to upload a Video on YT before i took off for Nigeria, but that didn't go as i planned! I have been in Nigeria since Sunday and I am having a great time. I am defo gonna be recording whilst im here and compile some clips just for my YT peeps when i get back to UK but i just wanted to use this time whilst i have internet to wish everyone that follows me a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in advance. I really appreciate all the support and there are some big things in store for Follyhoney in the upcoming year! God bless you all <3 x
Im so excited right now im literrally shaking in my boots (not that im wearing any, ive always wanted to use that expression lol). The highly anticipated movie from Kunle Afolayan is nearly here (peep the trailer below). The award winning director who recently directed the film The Figurine (Araromire) (2009) is back with another hit!
Plot:
An arrogant business executive and a warm-hearted fashion designer exchange lives after accidentally swapping their mobile phones at a busy airport.
As some of you know i study Media Arts in my final year with specific interest in screen writing, directing and also acting. This movie is setting a new trend in Nollywood, with its cinematography and attention to genre (comedy) we can see this movie is going to be a great succes.
Im soo excited for this movie to come and and you know i will definitely be giving a review on this as soon as possible!! Enjoy the trailer...
Okay so I have a confession to make.......I am OBSESSED with babies...Don't worry its nothing to worry about, they just fascinate me. I could literally watch babies all day...anyways before you guys get freaked out i HAD to share this video with you. An amazing two year old rapping..ENJOY.
So the other day was my madres 50th birthday party (pics coming soon) and of course i had to look the part so i decided to do my nails. I wanted something simple and quick to do and i recently saw a design on the Nailside blog (which i LOVE) so here is my attempt @ it. Here is the link to the one on Nailside.
Things i used:
cellotape
scissors
1 stripper nail art pen
2 nail polishes
Nail tek base ridge filling base coat (Excellent)
OPI Top coat
How i did it: (sorry there are no pics).
1. Base coat each nail
2. Paint base colour (Brown) on each nail and leave to dry
3. cut cellotape strips and stick on nails diagonally
4. pain other side with second nail polish (pink) and leave to dry
5. paint line along the diagonal divide using nail stripper or nail art pen and leave to dry
6. Top coat and youre DONE!
Yes Yes Yes i know i've sucked at keeping up with blogging and the truth is there has been A LOT for me to blog about these past couple of months, but there has just not been enough time for me to actually sit down upload pics, write etc... Infact as i am writing this now i SHOULD be finished off my dissertation (lets be honest i was procrastinating loooongg before i decided to write this entry). Well as some of you may know i have been taken over by my dissertation (my 10,000 word essay) and it is due in about 2 weeks! I thank God its nearly over but i am also PANICKING because i am nowhere near done....*Oh the joys of being a person with the shortest attention span known to mankind*.....Anywho i thought i owed it to all my followers out there (about 5 people but hey i'm still thankful) an explanation as to where i have been. Trust me my life is pretty interested and i should be including you guys.
There has been A LOT going on and i can't wait to fill you guys in but as for what is to come:
-Ankara Styles + pictures from my mums 50th birthday
-Vlog of my trip to Nigeria!
-Movie reviews
-Product Launch!
And MUCH MUCH MUCH! Trust me when i say much much more (it really annoys me when people say that and they really don't have anything else) But i mean it.
Anyways just to leave you guys with something i put my hair in Crotchet braids once again for a protective style challenge that i joined from folly24 on YouTube, here is the link to the tutorial of how i did the hair.
And here are some pictures of my style of this month which was done with Sleek101 (I know i HATE the brand but it was the only hair i could get from Paksonline). In colour 33, and guys this hair is looong! Here is the link to where i purchased the hair from Click here.
So i came across this trailer for a Ghanian film and it cracked me up so much i thought i had to share it! Make sure you pay CLOSE attention to the CGI I have to say it is AMAZING...lol Enjoy.
So while it was fun experiencing my natural hair and experimenting with all the fun styles i could do with it reality is that it is time consuming!
Soon i will be going back to uni (my final year) which is going to be soo hectic so my hair will be going back into protective styling until early next year! (Sobs).....
I got my hair done by one of my aunties friends last week and ALREADY it is rough...the woman did a great job but because of the style i chose (Ghana braids) it is much easier to notice the fuzziness of my natural hair...ahh well! So it looks like im going to have to put it in kinky twists ASAP! But anways here are some pics of what my hair looks like and how i style it.
This is when i first got it done as you can see it is still looking fresh!
The BUN look is very elegant.
This is JUST a week after and if you look very closely you will be able to see it is already getting a tad bit messy! I promise its not me cause i take care of my hair very well :) hehe
Too many times we seek approval from the places that it is not needed, watch this video for a fresh revelation on what really and truly matters in life and being a journey in Love for yourself and others!
