The Best $2-3 You Will Spend on Hair Care

I sleep wild...very wild!!!! All over the bed; under the cover, on top of cover....I'm never quite sure how I will wake up the next day. Needless to say, this is problematic for me while trying to protect and hide my hair. Because after a night of wild sleeping I wake up with my hair on top of my head and uncovered. I've tried every type of product known to man, so of course of I was skeptical when this product was recommended on LHCF.

I purchased it at Wal-Mart a few days ago. And can I tell you that I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For the first time I have found a head cover that stays on all night. Through tossing and turning, flipping and flopping...it stays completely on.

If you purchase this and it doesn't work, you clearly sleep wilder than I do (if that is possible). You might want to get that checked...LOL

The only CON I see with this product...it's a head cover! It's hard to be cute (when going to bed with your DH or SO) when wearing most any head covering, especially one that is meant to protect as opposed to one for fashion. But if that's the only thing that I can find wrong with it, then I'll suffer through it...

I truly believe this is the best $2-3 you can ever spend on hair care...I don't think you will be sorry!

In My Lifetime...

My parents remember where they were when Kennedy was assassinated.

They and others remember what they were doing when they heard the news that Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated.

For the first time in my life, I have one of those memories. In a few years, I will be able to tell my children and (many, many years later) grandchildren where I was when the first black man received the Democratic nomination for the President of the United States!!!!!

Granted, it's not the most romantic of locations. I'm sitting at my desk at work eating chilli-cheese fries and drinking Sunkist....LOL. But the moment is mine and it's still powerful.
I'm emotional, proud, nervous, excited, expectant and about a thousand other emotions over the next few months and the future of our country. It's an exciting time to be an American and an even more exciting time to be an African American!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA '08!!!!!!!!!!!!

You Smell So Good!!!!!

Wanna know how you can hear this phrase well into the day? Follow these tips for layering your scent and you won't be disappointed (thanks Bublin on LHCF!!!!!).

*Tip: Purchase the most expensive fragrance you can afford. Purchase it in a gift set if you can (which will come with body spray and lotion hopefully).

1. Shower/bathe yourself and then dry off as usual.
2. Spray the body spray on all over
3. Spray the eau de toilette all over
4. Spray the eau de Parfum on pulse points
5. Use the matching body lotion

Putting the lotion on last seals in the fragrance. Let me know how it works for you!

*Please be careful if you have any skin allergies*
