New Music Monday

Gr8 News & Jan. Update

Hey everyone! Long time no see. A mini update on me. I received an award from the Urban League as their "Young Professional of the Month!!" That was so exciting! I also got Sisterlocks on Jan. 22-23, 2012. It took a grand total of 29 hours! ... You are probably wondering what in the world are sisterlocks and why did it take you that long to do your hair..... Well if you click on THIS LINK it will give you the answer. 


So far so good. January has brought me many happy memories AND BLESSINGS. I have ready accomplished all of my new years resolutions and so much more. So that is a HUGE blessing. In the next month of so I will begin the process of applying to become a GA for Housing at the Graduate School that I will be attending in the fall. I hope and pray that I get this position. I also hope and pray that the Lord will keep me focus and driven to be able to juggle all of that at the same time. I know the social work program is a beast, but I pray that I will be able to handle it and pass all of my classes with flying colors.I have lost 6 pounds and I am currently in a size 9 jeans. So hopefully by March i can tell you guys that I am in my goal size 7 jeans or maybe even a 5.


 I went to a natural hair event this past Sunday, where I met the creators of Miss Jessie, and I received free gifts worth over $150. So that was cool. I even met some beautiful natural  as well. I wish I had taken pictures but just know guys that it was fun, they had great vendors and it was over 1000 people at this event. Also since I have sisterlocks when a person get them, there is a package. THIS LINK will tell you more about the package deal that I am talking about. My package deal that my sisterlocks consultants gave me includes two free washes/with a style, along with a full retighten. So that alone is wonderful. Well since my sisterlocks have been such a big hit, and I have been posting the hairstyles that my consultant did on several natural hair blogs and passing her cards around town. She informed me last night that she extending my 2 free washes/style to 10!!!! wow!! What a blessing. I am so excited. I will be set probably until July. I typically go the hair salon twice a month. Also in Feb. I am going to be in a sisterlocks photo shoot with some other sisterlocks beauties My consultant wanted to showcase her different sisterlocks clients. That too is motivating me to stay in the gym.. 


2012 is starting off amazing. I have lost 21 pounds AND I have sisterlocks.I love how she styled my hair and the outcome of my sisterlocks. I was more than happy to tell people about her work. She is awesome and the sweetest person. I actually think its pretty smart of her to do that because even if she didn't give me any free washes/styles I would still refer people to her. She specializes in natural hair, traditional locs, sisterlocks, and hair in general. She make embracing your natural beauty look effortless. I am very thankful, blessed, and so happy that I can rave and brag about what a wonderful consultant I have.
