It's Really Killing Me!

I swear because I absolutely HATE this song, it is stalking me. EVERY single time I turn my radio on to any given station, this song comes on.

Why do I hate this song so much? The words! Melanie has a beautiful voice,
but in 2010, I do NOT support such foolish lyrics such as:

"Trouble in my life
Problems when you don’t come home at night
But when you do you always start a fight
But I cant be alone , I need you to come on home
I know you messin around, but who the hell else is gonna hold me down"

Melanie Fiona, you get a Ed Lover "C'mon On Son" for that!

Random Treadmill Thoughts

I've decided to create a new series of posts called "Random Treadmill Thoughts." I sometimes have the most randomness thoughts and questions to pop in my head while jogging on the treadmill. Here are my thoughts from today...



1. Do men with awful eyebrows ever think about doing some kind of tweazing or waxing? Seriously, I've met guys that would be so much more attractive if they would just tame those things down a bit.



2. Am I the only one that wonders if some of the guys in the gym are training for some type of sports event like the Olympics? I believe in going hard, but geez louise...I see guys doing all kinds of acrobatic moves as if they are in the gym all by their lonesome. YOU ARE DISTRACTING ME! Calm down over there homie! lol



3. Old ladies in nothing but sports bras. Is that appropriate? I mean old ladies as in, 60-ish.
Just wondering...

Stay tuned for more "Random Treadmill Thoughts..."

Wax On...Wax Off...



Ladies! Bikini Season is in a few months... Scratch that!!! Forget bikini season, it's BOO season. Which means there's no better time like the present to get a good ole bikini wax.


Here are my Spa picks for waxing in the DC Area:

Some helpful tips:
  1. If it's your first time, try the Bikini and not a Brazilian. Take baby steps into the world of waxing.
  2. As with any waxing, do not do it a week within your period. You will bleed more during and after the wax! Apparently our skin is more sensitive during the coming and going of our cycles.
  3. Let hair grow 2-3centimeters in length before waxing.
  4. Drink a glass of wine before and take pain reliever immediately after :-)
And fellas, don't feel left out. Evidently male bikini waxing is becoming popular also... :-)

Check this video that shows the facial expressions of people while getting bikini waxed...lol...

I am Not My HAIR...

















30% of Black women site that hair management is the top reason why they do not work out!!!


Alarming statistic! But, I can really relate.
I'm someone that's never had a perm in my life, (except for the times my Mom permed by bang during cheerleading season and my grandma deemed it the reason why she had a heart attack! LOL) I really understand the time that it takes to do our hair.

I finally got the art of doing my hair down to about 1.5 hrs. I have really curly hair and it takes a while to get it straight. Most Black women, spend a significant amount of time AND MONEY in salons. So, sweating it out right after you just paid no less than $50 to get it fix is not what's up!

This leads me to the question of: Why do we get our hair done and so often?
It's because we want to look good! Honestly, those hours that we spend in the salon are really because we are looking to attract men or to keep the one we have attracted to us. Now, think about it. We are willing to gain a few pounds, demand that the lights are always turned out because we simply don't go to the gym and run off that extra tummy weight.

As I've matured and really begun to understand about living a healthy lifestyle, I realize that working out is important and a MUST. Maybe some of these alternative beautiful hair options will help motivate you to get off the couch and "really get it in" (in my lil wayne voice) and go hard in the gym.



Naturally Curly!
My Summer-Do








Lace-front! Wigs, especially lacefronts are becoming more and more popular. They're going to cost you a pretty penny. (Human Hair is no less than $169...But the Indian Remy is going to cost you nothing under $359)
Lace-fronts are my new thing. :-)




Locks!











A Bun!











Twists!













Braids!












Ponytail!








These are all looks that we can go with while going hard in the gym.

So ladies, no more excuses! Let's get health conscience in 2010. And remember, health conscience doesn't mean you can't be sexy!
