Let Me Love You

Happy Friday Couture Beauties!
I have heard Neyo's new song "Let Me Love" on the radio for some time now, but never really listened to the words until Wednesday evening. I've been listening to this song non-stop now because I find the words to have a deep meaning. I dedicate this song to all the women who are struggling with Alopecia and are having difficultly allowing their significant other, friends, and family to love them. I know that feeling all too well because when I developed Alopecia and it progressed to total hair loss, the love I had for myself decreased. I felt embarrassed, ashamed, and ugly, so I just knew the people in my life felt the same way. I was wrong of course and it took strong support for me to take those steps to start loving me all over again. My message today is Let your loved ones love you until you begin to love yourself! Listen to the song below and think about the people that truly love you.

Recently, Kiyah Wright was interviewed by Ebony.com on her take for Fall's Sexiest Hair Colors. Kiyah is one my favorite celeb stylist that I follow because she always have those haute tips with hair and is very creative! In the interview Kiyah states "Red-copper, red-gold, red-violets and red-browns are all popular" for this season. Investing in weave or a lace wig is a perfect way to easy transition and play with colors this season as well as protecting your natural hair. Kiyah also gives tips on how to keep up with the maintenance on red hair. Click here to read this haute interview!

Beautiful Bold Bald Woman = Support!!!

Latina Benthall launched her first support group event for Beautiful Bold Bald Woman this past Saturday, September 22nd in Hampton, VA. I must say that this event was very inspiring, and I was excited to be invited being that I also suffer hair loss in the form of Alopecia Totalis. Beautiful Bold Bald Woman is an organization for any woman who experiences various forms of hairloss and is having a hard time dealing the psychological effects of the hair loss. If you are in the Hampton, Virginia surrounding area, attending one of Beautiful Bold Bald Woman’s support group meetings is a MUST!!! You cannot fight the challenges of hair loss alone; you need support to help guide you to living your best life that God has meant for you to live. 

Beautiful Bold Bald Woman Mission  
“To help women and individuals who suffer from ALOPECIA hair lost. Seeking to HELP spread ALOPECIA awareness through public events and exciting fundraisers, in hopes to accumulate proceeds that will contribute to a cure for an illness that has affected many women, such as myself. God has handcrafted us this way for a Purpose; His purpose, which would be to help women and other individuals stand strong and become confident in our own skin. I HAVE ALOPECIA, ALOPECIA DON’T HAVE ME!!!!”

Personally, every time I attend a support group meeting I learn how to deal with my alopecia in a different way that increases positivity in my life. I encourage you to attend Beautiful Bold Bald Woman’s next support group meeting. To find out when the next meeting is or to learn more about the organization, visit www.facebook.com/BBBW.ORG today.
