Who Loves Flowers?

Hello WordPressers! I am here to let you know that I make flowers in the natural, kinda. What I mean is that if you wanted to buy for your Mom or Grandma a beautiful bouquet of flowers, I can help with that. I make flowers that can be used in your everyday lives. Have you ever seen a beautiful bouquet of roses made of lotion bars or bar soaps? That’s what I do. I can make for your Mom or that very special person in your life the type of flowers they really want in any scent they want. They are beautiful to look at, but imagine giving Mom or Grandma a bunch of flowers that look real but are made from something they can use to help heal their skin. They will cherish that bunch of flowers more than any others you may have bought in the past.

Traditional flowers wilt, dry out, and die. These flowers never lose their beauty and they are very fragrant. They can be made from bath bombs also if requested. If anyone is interested, please contact me via phone at (618) 203-3690. It takes me approximately 7 days to put one of these together, so order in time for that special day.

I make these for any occasion such as weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, any occasion.

Natural or Weave?

I’m just venting right now I guess. I just have a problem with women of color that claim to be natural, but will go to extra lengths to buy the best weaves from around the world. I don’t get that. How can a person claim to be truly natural when they won’t wear their own hair? That doesn’t make sense to me.

For those of us that are truly natural, we don’t care what the world has to say about our naturally kinky hair. That’s the hair we were born with and we do wear it proudly. We have those days when we really don’t want to do any thing with it, but that’s just the struggle we go through to be real to ourselves.

I have never worn a weave because for one, I know where it comes from. I don’t want anyone else’s hair in my head. I think that’s nasty and just plain wrong. Every black woman on this planet was born with beautiful hair. Instead of trying to get to know their hair or learn to take care of it so that it can grow to enormous lengths, black women will instead allow the hair to become brutally dry and damaged. Why not do what our mothers and grandmothers did when they were young? Remember hair grease? That is the only thing that really saves our hair. We can’t wash our hair every day or every week like our counterparts. We have natural oils in our hair that allows for growth.

Try oils such as olive, advocado, and/or grapeseed. Even coconut oil is a good source of moisture for any hair type. But wearing weave is not the way. How are you going to have nappy roots but the rest of the “hair” is bone straight? Get real. It’s neither cute not helpful to your own natural hair.
IJS…I’m not here to bash anyone for choosing to do what they do, but what I am saying is that if you say you are all natural, take the weave out. That’s not natural.
