JUSTICE

Whether this creates controversy or not, what's right is right. 

Our male, black, youth are being killed. Whether these police are prejudice or on a power-trip, innocent lives are being lost. 
The ignorance involved in this situation, though is ridiculous. Black folks are cursing and disrespecting the names of the police... The police officers in my opinion should have been indited. 
But, we are proving the stereotype of black people; we are uneducated, ignorant, violent, 'gangsters', and criminals. 
We don't need to be tearing up cities! we need to follow in the steps of others in exercise our right to protest, CALMLY. Our violence and cursing isn't helping our case.
These new tribute songs by T.I, G.A.G.E, and TheGame ft.variety of other rappers inspired me.
What's wrong is wrong. But had a black officer killed a white man he would have got the 'L'. We can try to fight the law. But, why not become the law... the judges, the police officers. Educate yourselves.

and trust me many more have been killed from senseless gun violence.
African Americans have comprised 26 percent of all police-shooting victims. Overall, young African Americans are killed by cops 4.5 times more often than people of other races and ages.
Since Brown’s death, at least 14 other teenagers—at least six of them African-American—have been killed by law enforcement in a variety of circumstances.

Just A Hi thing!

Hey babies! So I guess some of ya'll know that I can't have the same hair style for too long. Kinda superficial I know but, hey!

So I still have my sew-in! and I'm so bored with it now. It's super hard to maintain because my natural hair ins't the same texture. 

I'm honestly thinking about taking my hair down tonight. 

Alsoooo! I was wondering if ya'll would want me to do a vlog? My YouTube will get started up again as soon as I get some more editing software.

So I guess ya'll could see into the life of me. Well I can already add videos but, we will just see how I feel about it. 

Don't forget to check out my mother's hair line @KENBARBIEHAIR on FaceBook! Tell her Chloe' Skye sent you!

Well my dog is barking... again! See you later! 

Sew In!

Hi, lovelies! I'm blogging to you now with a bangin' headache! But, I'm determined to tell ya'll about my new sew in.

So at first I asked my mother to flatiron my hair. And you know my mom looked at me likeI had two heads because she ain't want to deal with my type 5 hair. #FixItJesus. So she and my father talked and agreed to get me a sew in. So before I show you the pictures here's the background info!
- I did not wash my hair before I got my hair done. Some peoples hair (mine) grows faster when its 'dirty' . 
- I used hair from my mother's hair line KENBARBIE Hair. You kind find her on Facebook @KENBARBIEHAIR
 So without further a-do here are the pictures!

Nobody believes me when I tell them it's a sew in because it looks soo natural. 
Make sure to check out my mother's hair line #KENBARBIEHAIR !

Eek! Hair Update... Apologies

So hi babies! 
I know I haven't been on in a while but I'm trying to make a comeback! So let me give you a update.

So... I don't remember if I did a post about this or not but, I chopped off most of my hair, basically the permed ends and a little bit more just in case....

so that's my hair after the chop!

Before the chop I still had permed ends so I had to find a way to conceal my ends.

so this is what I came

up with, I made my permed ends look as curly as possible without adding heat. I also kept my hair super moisturized during that time because, it was permed hair on natural hair and my hair could have broken off.

Now I had Senegalese twist, I've had them before but, this time Falou didn't do them. When they were done this time, they were thinner and all the same size but they took less time than the first time. I don't wear my hair in a lot of up-do's. I usually wear my hair down with a part in the side of my braids. But since my hair is natural under my braids/twist, when humidity hits its over and done with! So in some places you can see natural hair sticking out. Anyway, the pictures will be below. I no longer have any pictures of my previous braids but I will show you the ones I currently have in.

Most people say my hair looks fresh, but to be honest, I'm so over it. So I'm getting my hair done differently every week, not with heat because HAIR COMMANDMENT 1: Thou shalt not over use heat in thy hair.

It will cause breakage ! But anyway, I'm going to do things like Bantu knots, twist outs, and different types of braids/ braiding styles.

I've also wanted to dye my ends a lighter color like blond or a burgundy color. But, of course I have to talk to my mother first. I'm also going to start taking Biotin again or try HairfintiTM.

I want my hair back to my length when I was relaxed. It was about in the middle of my back but when I went a while without my perm, my hair thinned close the ends and got shorter, that's when I chopped! My ends, though are another reason that I am cautious about dying my ends, your ends are already fragile and the oldest part of your hair. And dyes extract nutrients from your hair especially if you are lightening. So remember ladies! TAKE CARE OF YOUR ENDS!

I thinks this about wraps it up! Once again sorry I've been gone so long! But I was up (it's 2:20 down here in Louisiana) so I wanted to update for you. 

Te Amo, Chloe' Skye 

    

How To Twist Out + how I prepared for my twist out

          I've been wanting to do a twist out for the longest time but all off my attempts failed. Finally I watched enough videos and read a lot of blogs and tutorials until I finally realized what I needed to do.
          Tomorrow my grandmother is going to get some stuff for the house and I figured that while she's out I could grab what I need. I figured out what I wanted after watching enough videos and I saw that some people used A LOT of products. So I did my research and looked at products I thought would work best for me and typed them up in my notes along with there their prices. So I decided on:
-Salon Care perm rods $2.39
-Proclaim hair bonnet $2.69
-Silk Elements Styling Comb Kit $3.99
-The Wet Brush (in black) $7.99
(I haven't decided on the curl jelly yet)

But I'm going to tell you how I'M doing my twist out!
hope you enjoy.

-So first I'm going to wash my hair, condition, deep condition etc. before anything because it won't looks as cute if it's dirty and it most likely will be easier with freshly clean hair. 
-while my hair is damp, part your hair (the piece you want to twist) I'm going to add my curl jelly/curl moisturizer/ leave in conditioner You could also dampen the hair with extra water if you'd like to. 
-now taking the detngle brush and brushing through the part you can start the twist!
~flat twist: part one piece of hair (for better results use) and part that piece in at least three parts (each piece on top of the other) take the TOP layer and begin twisting it and started adding hair from the other parts you made. (kinda like a french twist). and do that to your whole head.
-Now add your perm rods to the ends and roll them up how ever far you want. 
-Once that's done, put on your bonnet securely to make sure that it won't come off.
_______________________________________________________________________________
AFTER PART I
-Now the twist should be dry after about 8-24 hrs.
-gently remove the perm rods  
-and gently undo the twist
-you can take your're twist and gently break them apart again for more curls and then take a pic and then pick out out some of the parts to put them in place and you're good.
_______________________________________________________________________________NIGHTLY CARE
-put all your hair into a loose ponytail on the top of your head
-now add your bonnet (MAKE SURE TO SECURE IT)

HOW TO: Co-Wash

How To:

-try to wet one part at a time but, if you can’t that’s fine.

-now get a good amount of conditioner and spread it all through the parted piece of hair.

- with the conditioner still on the piece use the wide tooth comb to untangle the hair.

- repeat this through all of the parted pieces of hair until done.

-wash out your hair and make sure you are still able to comb through it.
