  • Puffs look so regal to me. 👑 I miss the one that I wore all the time when my hair was shorter (my hair just flops over now). I tried to emulate my old fave with a roll and tuck/cinnabun this weekend. ___________________ We are often striving for longer hair and that can be ok, but if your hair is longer, what do you miss about your shorter hair? #prosandconsineverything
  • I recently stumbled across my old friend the body brush (this one is from @thebodyshop) a couple weeks ago and decided to start dry brushing again. _________________ My skin, especially my legs, gets impressively dry as soon as the weather gets cold ☃☃☃ and I thought they could use a bit of extra help. _________________ Benefits of dry brushing: 1️⃣ exfoliates the skin 2️⃣ improves circulation 3️⃣ softens hyper pigmentation 4️⃣ smoothes rough patches 5️⃣ all sorts of other things you can find on Google that aren't necessarily scientifically proven _________________ I love this technique because it takes literally two minutes before jumping in the shower and my legs are noticeably smoother within a few days. Brush in long light strokes toward your heart. Always start gently and monitor how your skin reacts, especially if you have sensitive skin. _________________ Have you tried dry brushing? How did you like it (or not)? Do you do anything else special for your skin in the winter? Please share your tips.
  • Did you recently #bigchop? We want to hear from you! Whether you are natural and loving it or just want to hide, we want to hear your story. DM or email for details.
  • I almost never do twists this small anymore but I decided to go for it this time since we had a long road trip planned. Car time is one of the few times this mom's arms are free for long enough to accomplish this feat! My roots are wonderfully fuzzy from doing a scalp massage with a few drops of tea trea and lavender in water. _______________________ I was long overdue for a trim ✂️ so I used the opportunity to trim my hair using @fromato4z's method of using my thumb to measure. I chopped off two thumbs worth 😅 which amounted to about two inches all around. I cut more off around my hairline which has been especially challenged since it fell out due to postpartum shedding. _______________________ It feels good to be mostly rid of my raggedy ends. Next step is a protein treatment. I'll do another trim in January.
  • Happy #worldveganday! Over the past couple of months I have been reading this book on the unbelievable power of plants. Seriously, it's shocking to think that changing what we eat could dramatically reduce the amount of disease we suffer from in the US, and especially in our community. Who would have thunk, the plants that God put here when He created us have the ability to keep our bodies and minds healthy! This book is jam packed with scientific studies that show how we can use food to prevent and reverse disease. It's now one of my favorite books. ____________________ If you eat meat (I still eat some, just not every day) don't even worry about that at first - just get more fruits and vegetables and beans and nuts and seeds and whole grains in your body each day. It's a journey. If you have any questions at all about a plant based diet DM me or comment here and I will do my best to help. ____________________ Oh, and I have a list of vegan soul food recipes I'll be trying this Thanksgiving on the blog today. 👉🏽🔗 Link in bio. ____________________ 📷: @sweetygoesvegan #plantbased #hownottodiebook #hownottodie #booklove #healthyliving #blackvegansofig #blackvegans #blackvegansrock #wholefoodsplantbaseddiet #wholefoodsplantbasedlifestyle

  • Last weekend we had a very belated birthday lunch at @vstreetfood, our current favorite special occasion restaurant. The food there is so incredibly flavorful, and all vegan which is great since we limit milk and eggs. We are flexitarians at the moment 😂 but definitely lean more plant based. My current favorite dish is the Langos Brunch Bun, with shaved yellow beets...💕 Swipe to see the deliciousness...🍽 #veganrestaurants #veganphilly 📷: @vstreetfood
  • If you've been with me for awhile you know that this natural thing extends beyond hair for me. Over the years I've incorporated more natural approaches into my diet and my lifestyle as a whole (but I'm still a work in progress). Dreaming of making this homemade carob bark with hemp seeds, dried cranberries and coconut again - this recipe distracts me from chocolate long enough to get past the craving. My husband says it confuses his brain because it tastes so much like chocolate he can't believe it's not. 😅
