2 Years Natural !!!

Wow, I've been gone for so long !!!

Well on July 29th, 2011, I celebrated my second Big Chop-iversary !!! I went to the salon the next day for a Domincan blowout.

I haven't had much of anything going on in my HJ, besides getting my hair colored professionally !! It came out as brown/copper like color.

I also started playing around with braidouts on reverted flat ironed hair. I LOVE THEM !!!

That's all that's going on in my world right now. I will be back with some more updates later :)

My New Job...

Hey ladies !!! Well if you've read the older blog posts, you know I wrote about how I needed time to get away from youtube and the hair boards to get things in my personal life together. I didn't want to talk about all of my personal matters back then, but I can talk about everything going on now that it's all worked out =)

I have a new job !!! After being unemployed for almost 8 months, I finally am working again. I feel so blessed ! I've been training for the last 2 weeks and I still have about 2-4 more weeks of training. My training is rigorous, I have to become acquainted with a million and one different software programs and the correct way to use them. It's been alot of fun learning though !!! Somewhere in the hustle and bustle of my orientation and my hands on training I've been sooooo tired and just haven't had time to update here and especially not on youtube or the hair boards. I know time will free up eventually though !

I just wanted you all to be caught up on my doings so that you won't worry too much =)

I sincerely thank everyone for all the kind words and prayers ( a huuuuuge thank you to Nakeisha, Kim, Diana,Laine, and Sweetfm for their prayers for me !) and to everyone else who I haven't talked to yet but just wrote hello to me on any of my pages. Thank you all for just remembering me if nothing else, it's nice to know I have extended friends =) Right about now, you ladies know more about what's going on in my life than my own personal friends, hahahahaha .. I love typing in my blog about everything !

As always, thank you for reading everyone. I hope you enjoy your weekend !!

Taking a Personal Break....

I Love All of the friends I've made here, the hair boards, and on YouTube. You ladies are so encouraging and always offer encouragement and your friendships, and I can't begin to tell you how grateful I am to have met you.

This past week has been very trying and difficult. I know that I'm going through a test of my faith, and I am trying very hard to put all my trust in Christ so that I can get through this trying time. I am a Christian, and I am trying to be optimistic and remember what the good book says about times like this when we are troubled (James 1:2-4)

2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;

3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.


I don't want you to worry about me AT ALL. I am not in any eminent danger and my health and safety are all just fine.

I am however still going through some personal issues that just don't need to be talked about here or anywhere else. At times like this, I want to keep my personal life separate from my hair journey. I need some time away from the internet and just want to be with my family. I will be back very soon though.

I hope you all can understand. I truly am sorry but I promise when I come back, I'll be a force to be reckoned with..... I will have SO MANY updates when I come back here and on Youtube, you'll be tired of seeing me ! For now though, I just do not feel like talking about anything related to hair or my personal life.

I Love You All... Thank you for your prayers and understanding.

-Love Michele



BTW, for those who will want to know, I will be keeping my regimen simple. I plan to wash and deep condition my hair once a week only, and I will moisturize and seal 3xs a week as well. I am cornrowing my hair and wearing a wig to give my hair a break. I am only going to be using my Zipporah's Beauty products for a long time while I try to undo the damage I've had. I use the Citrus Delight Shampoo & Conditioner, and I also use the Vanilla Mint Moisturizing Hair Serum in combination with the Green Tea Hair & Body Butter to moisturize before braiding. The products are awesome and I'm glad that my hair is doing well while I try to make things in my personal life go just as smoothly. God Bless Everyone
