My Love Pieces

2013 Has ended.   Now it is   ******2014****** I honestly thought that 2013 would be the best year. Things were truly looking up for me. Although I lost my favorite person in the entire world, my grandmother in December 2012, I figured that 2013 would be awesome. And indeed it was. Here's my recap. Ok so starting off the year., with a Master degree in New Media Journalism from Full Sail!! Awesomeness. Graduation day from Full Sail University. I brought the new year in with some friends and my family. We went to the LSU game and then church then hit Peters Street together. It was a fun and interesting night none the less. (Sidebar: I was told this story that the guy you spend NYE with will be the guy you will spend the entire year with. Ok. Yea that's a lie. I don't know why I believe those things! ) Friends at New Year's Eve events So then I had this like amazing 26th birthday with the most amazing friends ever and had a blast!! Looking bac...

Original video and photos done by Deniscia Scott. This is how I viewed the Natural Hair show. It was so many vendors there, I couldn't get them all plus it was hot!

I did a hairstyle, that I fell in love with on one of my homegirls! At first I was a little nervous, because I too had the same hair style and it was black. But she wanted her hair to be blonde and so I gave her blonde. She picked out the hair, 2 packs: one dirty blonde and the other white. I don't remember the names so please forgive me. And I went sewing away. It turned out big, wavy and bright. Everything that she wanted.... take a look. Blonde 2toned 10" and 12" with bang.  #lioness This was my hair style Credit: Styles by Safiyyah Total packs: 2 10"

This is the same doll from the beginning and this time it was her mother's turned to be dolled up.  Curly hair with bang closure. Added more tracks at the top for a fuller bang. Total packs: 2 10"   Bang and closure. Total Packs: 2 8" 

This is my linesister who wanted her hair done over. I don't have a before picture. But her closure was done wrong and it had no layers. So I did it over. Added more tracks, for color, layered the back and gave her a swoop bang! KAUTE!

2 tone hair. In the back, full red and on top 2 toned, red and black. Hair out on top.  12"  Half sew in- literally, only sewn in the back of head. 10"   Sew in with hair out on top. 10" 

After rigorous practicing on Kenya and Sue, I decided that I needed a human doll to practice my skill on. And then came along a trusty friend. I will admit, I was nervous but for the most part of I was excited. After completing my first sew-in, I became my own toughest critic. Thinking of ways to make it look better, what I need to do to improve in technique and timing. Just became really harsh on myself, while enjoying something that was indeed to turn into a great hobby. Her hair is out at the top and the back is sewn in. Natural look. 10"
