Meet one of Hollywood’s most realist ladies of all time………

I had the pleasure to meet Ms Vivica Fox a couple of times and I must say it was just so chilled. it like hanging out with own of your very own good good girlfriend.  She is so laid back and a straight shooter which I love, in a friend. She is really some one that “say’s it like you mean it,”LOL 

Vivica Fox Meet and Greets are just totally amazing, she get so personal with everyone, taking to each person with just about any subject, but if you know some trivia fact about Ms. Vivica you could walk home with some great hair from her Vivica Fox Hair Collection. Or just get a picture with her it that’s your twist.

Hair Makeover On TODAY Goes From Right to Wrong!

Black Girl Hair is MAGIC!

Why Black women just can’t go to anyone to do there hair.  Many hair professional may be awesome at doing different hairstyles and working on many different hair textures. After what happen on the Today Show with Beauty Expert Deepica Mutyala. I agree more and more with what my mother always told me ” when you find a good hairstylist you stick with them” and “tip well.” I have always admired the hair profession, what people are able to create with hair is amazing.

But when watching the Today show, where hair professional Mutyala attempted to show us some easy summer how to’s styles on women of different ethnicities and hair textures in a min or less.

Well I can’t say any of the styles were particularly impressive, the styling of the black model’s hair was no doubt the least impressive. When asked about the styling of the hair, Mutyala replied:

“It’s actually not that trendy to be perfect.” For who??? Majority of women I know like to be on trend and if not they try to keep their hair maintain with styles that look clean and neat.

The insane thing is the model actually had a cute style to start, only to have it horrifically ‘made over’.  Take a look for yourself: Here’s the official video from The Today Show. 

 

While we commend and respect the the TODAY show for their diversity in selecting the models for this segment, it’s clear Mutyala’s beauty expertise does not extend to the styling of black women’s hair. It was pretty evident that this is something we see often in particular industries when it come to styling black women.

What are your thoughts?

Supporting The Community.

As the media coordinator for Vivica Fox Hair Collection, I had the honor to meet some of the most loving, and ineradicable ladies ever. This July I was able to attend the Pampered & PINK  beauty bash that provides uplifting and major support  to women who are dealing with cancer. Vivica Fox Hair was able to donate cornrow caps which are designed for cancer patients, and people dealing with hair shortage or hair loss. Our cornrow cap allows people to have more versatility with different hairstyles. As well as wig for many of the women in attendance.

Throughout the course of the event I was able to meet and speak with many of the patients and hear their stories and how thankful they where for companies like Vivica Fox Hair. It was such a humbling experience and I want to thank Pampered and PINK for having such a wonderful event.

5 Tips to Protect Your While Swimming

With summer on it’s way, so follows the long awaited bathing suit season. Don’t let water damaged hair be the “mane” attraction! Chlorine, salt, heat and water can cause tremendous strain on your hair if it’s not properly managed. Here are 5 ways to protect your hair while swimming:

1. Wet your hair before swimming! Dampening your hair before swimming will lessen the opportunity for salt, chlorine and other chemicals from soaking into your hair.

 2. Condition with Coconut Oil -A little bit of coconut oil goes a long way! It makes it easier to get a swim cap on and off and helps your hair dry faster and reduces the damage and smell from chlorine in pool water. A table spoon or two should do the trick! Allergic to coconuts? Try another natural oil.

3. Wear a Cap! Find the most fabulous swim cap you can and commit to wearing it! While it may not keep your hair entirely dry, it does help to protect your hair from chlorine and salt.

4. Secure your Hair – Braid it, pin it, whatever you do – tame it under that cap! Hair left wild will surely tangle which could cause breakage.

5. Shampoo/Rinse Afterwards – Always shampoo and or rinse your hair after you’ve left the water. (Salt water, be sure to shampoo) Removing toxins and salt from your hair is a must!

We hope you found these tips helpful!! Stay fabulous and enjoy the summer!
