Did You Know...Alopecia Areata Linked To Other Auto Immune Conditions?

Good Evening Fellow Alopecian Beauties!

I just came across a YouTube video on Alopecia Areata being linked to other auto immune conditions. The video is covered by Dr. David Clark who appears to be very well educated in the field of auto immune conditions. Please watch this video and be informed that Alopecia is just as serious as any other auto immune condition.


Now that you are educated on how Alopecia Areata can be linked to other auto immune conditions, it is time to make our doctor aware of the seriousness of it. I have been to countless doctors only to be brushed off because they lacked the education of Alopecia Areata or just did not want to take the time in researching and trying different methods.

Stay informed & Spread the Awareness!

Thinkin Bout You - Covered by Antonique Smith

I fell in love with Frank Ocean's song Thinkin Bout as soon as I heard it on the radio. About a week ago, I ran across a YouTube video with Antonique Smith's version. If you don't know who she is you must didn't watch the movie Notorious. Antonique played the starring role as Faith Evans, and she is growing tremendously in her music career. Her voice is very soulful and has that '90's feel to it. Here is her video singing Thinkin Bout You. While watching the video check out her beautiful hair.



Happy Friday Couture Beauties!

Quick Wig Tips For Winter Hair Care

Hey Couture Beauties!

Now that Summer has past and Fall is slowly drifting away, the cold air is coming upon us quickly. Remember that dry air = dry hair. The key word this winter is MOISTURIZE, MOISTURIZE, MOISTURIZE. Yes I have to stress this word because it's vital in keeping your stands nice and strong. The cold dry air can cause your hair to become brittle, dry, and lead to breakage if you do not keep the hair conditioned & moisturized.
  • Use a moisturizing shampoo & conditioner once a week
  • Deep condition the hair for 3 to 5 minutes with a masque once a week
  • Use a serum & a hydrating cream to seal the hair strands  
  • Every two days lightly spray the hair with conditioner water (How to make Conditioner Water)
  • Wear a satin scarf/bonnet every night to keep the hair moisturized (Why wear a Satin Bonnet)
  • When wearing a wool coat also wear a satin or silk scarf to protect the hair from rubbing against the coat. This will prevent breakage and tangling.

Beyonce's Haute Blunt Bangs

Source: USA Today
Beyonce and her Hubby Jay-Z attended Brooklyn Nets' first home game in pure style...as always :-). This time Bey switched up her hair and rocked a long shag with blunt bangs. What I love most about Bey is through out all the styles she has worn even with braids she always stayed with the same hair color. Check out some old pics of Bey rocking blunt bangs.

Hair 'Nspiration | Naomi Campbell's Long Sleek Locks W/Bangs


I spotted this Haute photo of Naomi Campbell on TractHerTrailHer.com. Naomi is the new face of Love Republic's Fall/Winter 2012 campaign and I just have to say that she looks Haute in every photo and piece that she is wearing. To see more pics, click here. I favored this photo because you can see the sleekness in her hair and how it enhances her beautiful structured face. Oh.... and how can I forget to mention that this dress is my favorite piece from the Love Republic's collection. Now on to her Hair....

Naomi's style can be glamourous, sexy, and simple all at the time! This style is perfect if you have a heart shaped face because the bangs bring out the beautiful definition of your bone structure.

How To Achieve Naomi's Style
Apply an heat protectant and flat-iron your hair in sections. When complete, seal the hair by smoothing on an hair serum to give it some shine. To keep this style nice & fresh for an extended period, wrap the hair and tie it up with a satin scarf. For extra protection to keep the strands moisturized, sleep on a satin pillow case.

Here are some Lace Systems to give you a head start on getting Naomi's glamourous style.
