- I can't believe it's been four years!!! I'm going to do better this year (well the rest of this year) documenting my hair progress.
My hair regimen...
I wash my hair once a week. I wash my hair with Yes to Cumbers (right now). The leave-in conditioner I use is the one used by Kim Love on Youtube.
Which is,
2tbsp of Kinky Curly Knot Today (Cantu is another conditioner I use sometimes instead of KCKT)
2tbsp of Aloe Vera Juice
2tsp of olive oil
2tsp of castor oil
I use the left over conditioner within three day.
I deep condition twice a month. After placing my non leave-in conditioner in my hair I wrap my hair in towel for 45 mins (Using my body heat as heat for my conditioning). ***side bar*** I place a shower cap over my hair before wrapping it with the towel then I rinse my hair.
On days that I need to refresh my hair I use Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse (One cup of water and half a tbsp of Apple Cidar Vingear) that in a spray bottle. It does not smell once the hair dry. I also use this rinse when I am detangling my hair before a wash.
After I place my leave in conditioner in my hair I style my hair. Now, I wear my hair out in summer/warm days. But, now that winter/cold days are here. I am wearing my hair in protective styles.
But my main goal is to keep my hair moisturized and my ends protected. - Album was created 8 months ago and modified 7 months ago

| @bethea | - My Makeup
- (Sep 26, 2011)
- My makeup is makeup that I have collected over the past 4 years. I use to be so scared of makeup for several reasons. I always thought I was to dark for bright colors, I did not know how to apply it to my skin, and I thought it would cause breakouts on my skins. I can't remember how I stumble across my new found love...Makeup!!!! But, one day I realize that bright colors look awesome against my dark skin. I’ve learned that the right makeup will not cause breakouts and can actually prevent them from happening. I’ve watch tutorial after tutorial on YouTube and went to the MAC makeup counter a few times to pick up a few tips. I've read many blogs along the way. I would not say I am a professional, because I am still learning and experimenting. I love doing my own makeup but not has much as I love doing everyone else makeup. I don’t use makeup to cover up anything but to enhance everything. I will be posting pictures of my different makeup looks. I posted some pictures of my makeup not to brag on what I have, because it’s really not a lot. But, to show you what I use to achieve these different looks. I started out buying MAC makeup eye shadows one at a time over these past four years (at about $15/each). I am not rich so this was costing me what it seems like a fortune. But, I wanted what I thought at the time was highly pigmented eye shadows that you can only buy on high-end counters. Well, I am so glad that I learn that NYX, Jesse’s Girl, Coastal Scents sell high pigmented eye shadows at affordable prices. Now, have I totally disowned MAC…NO!!! I have learned that if I had a few dollars to spend then I should buy my fix+ , fluids, and powders. (Thanks to a Makeupgeek…who I found on Youtube…check her out!!!) Plus, I follow other makeup gurus on Youtube, such as…Fancyface, queenofblending, etc…(just to name a few)

| @Bethea | - January 2009 to April 1st 2009
- My camera stop working at the beginning of the year. I just got a new camera in Feb, so I missed the whole month of Jan. But, April the 1st 2009 will be one full year of being natural. I started my BC on March 31st 2008, but didn't get all my relax ends off the next day(4/1/2008). I can't believe that it has been a year. It has come a long way and I can't wait to see what the next year (2009) will bring!!!
