My trial with hair leaves

Have you ever heard of leaves?

For your hair I mean?

 

During a routine search of Youtube several months ago, I stumbled upon a style named a leaf. In this method you take a twist or loc fold it upon itself ( the hair length determines the amount of times this is done), you then secure it with a rubber band a repeat to your heart's desire.

I attempted this shortly after discovering it and decided to finally share my thoughts and the experience with others.

Basically I like the idea of the style, I found it rather easy to get the hang of, and I have decided that it would be a better option when my hair is longer. Check out my video covering the subject and random other musings regarding twists/ flat twists.

 

 

 

 

 

August Birchbox unboxing

My August Birchbox failed to disappoint, I received some new hair oil, facial moisturizer (2), blue eye liner, deodorant swipes, and did not get to try all of them out. I did enjoy the facial moisturizers but found that neither was strong enough to calm my dry flaky skin. The eye liner was a great pop of color on an otherwise blank canvas, since I used it in place of an eye shadow/eyeliner combo. I was excited about the deodorant swipes but then failed to use them so far, luckily there will be other sweaty days ahead.
Its been 13 months since I started receiving a monthly Birchbox subscription, so apparently I like it as I continue to pay month to month to receive samples of products.
Since I know I forgot to mention every thing that was in my box this month check out my video below. Also note I do not receive any compensation for sharing my thoughts or what products I receive.
