Hey Super Ladies . I wanted to start of by saying that I know I have been missing for awhile. However, we are going engage in a wonderful topic today. I was doing my typical YouTube viewing when I stumbled across a very interesting video. When I say that this one was an eye-catcher, I work as hard as possible to get her results.
One day when I was messaging my friend and we were talking about our hair. I told her how my current hair situation was and how brittle my hair was. She proceeded to tell me that she was started to co-wash her hair. I was so confused at first. She explained to me that it's safer for your hair. I did my own research on the topic because I was experiencing a lot of shedding. To find out, sulfates was the common factor among them all.
The wonderful world of sulfate! That little ingredient that allows you see the scuds while you lather, is hands down deceiving. I'm not saying this applies to all, but for the many of us that have horrible conditions with our hair in general. The sulfates once again allows the shampoo to lather into a rich bubbly solution but later on dries our hair .Why do you think you have to use conditioner immediately afterwords? The conditioner revives your hair follicles and adds moisture to the overall life of each strand.
This is what introduces the wonderful world of co-washing! Co-washing is the action of washing your hair with nothing but CONDITIONER. Now I know some of you are looking like "what", "ewwww" and even "how", but let me explain. Co-wash requires nothing but multiples massages of conditioner from scalp to the ends, rinse and repeat. You are just simply repeating the act of washing your hair until you feel how clean it actually is. You will see a difference with your overall hair as well. It allow it stay moist and hydrated which is the key element in hair-growth. It also allows that stripping power of shampoo to no longer be an enemy. The overall of idea of co-wash is powerful.
Now for all my sistahs, this is a break through. Believe me when I say I have struggled with hair growth. I was once in love with shampoos. I'm talking about wash, wash. wash, and WASH. I washed my hair so much it was ridiculous! Since, I have started co-washing, I will never be the same. I suggest this to everyone that comes across my path with the struggle of hair growth and is seeking improvement.
Simple steps to hair growth:
*Co-wash your hair 3 times a week (if your style permits)
*Moisturize,Moisturize and Moisturize !!!!!!!! (my favorite is virgin olive oil)
*Take a multi-vitamin
*Drink TONS of water
*Get those ends clipped
*PROTECTIVE STYLING (wigs and weave and avoid the heat!)
A couple drops of shampoo won't hurt to get that first wash nice and deep. The key is to stay hydrated. As in the health of your skin and body and even your hair. Drink water! Moisturize your skin and co-wash that hair. Just watch how long that hair starts to grow!!!!
My first video is definitely going to be my journey on hair growth!!! Stay tuned and SUBSCRIBE

How To Widen The Hips: Naturally !
Good Morning My Bodies!
I would like to welcome you all to week three of our transformations. I'm doing good so far and I hope you guys are as well. Today, I'm going to be talking about the hips. Yes, those sexy little things that give your body the spice it deserve. Hips are one of the keys to a banging body! As you may have already figured this out, we're going to get the hips of our dreams.
I often like to refer to my favorite picture. You know, the one that I posted and said it gives me motivation. To refresh your memories, I'm talking the ebony goddess in the two-piece binkini:
Simply Gorgeous! Now as for the hips she has may already be natural for her, I want them. I'm going to work hard to get them too. Just imagine how those would make your clothes look on you? How small and defined the waistline is. How perfectly proportioned the hips are to the waist. That's what I want! But hey, I know I'm not the only one who wants them. So, that's where you guys come in at. I didn't forget about you guys!
This week, Week Three has added hip exercises to bring them on out. To get those hips we are going to need to work each and every hip muscle we have. That goes from the tiniest one, all the way to the biggest one itself. With that being said we are going to start doing alot of stretching and working hard on those areas as much as possible. Rumor has it that this can also come from having sex with a "blessed" partner. Try it out and see !
First, one you have to think of is the side lunges. They make all the difference in the world. I do mines without a bar , but only for the time being. Its nothing but starting off in the standing position, and stepping off to the side and fully bending your knee. While maintaining to keep your leg straight and out, you hold it for a hot second or two and extend up. Alternating from leg to leg until you do 10 stretches on each leg.
Or refer to:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37k1vjRaVFQ
Next, is the hip abductions. Feel the burn with these. Refer to another Nike Women video I found on YouTube. Here is hip abductions:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZTMoWgFQV0
Along with these two. Add some side walking on a treadmill sometimes. These 3 will do you wonders believe me! I added stretching to it as well. I find alot of burn and visual results with these stretching exercises I came up with. One of them are called Maiden's.
The goal is to begin in a butterfly pose and and reach your head to your toes. Hold it for a good 10 seconds, relax and repeat that 3 times. Another one that I have had luck with is another yoga pose called the pigeon ( I believe that's the name). You begin with the stands she is in and you pull your head forward to lay it straight in line with the stretched out leg. Hold for 10 seconds and repeat for each leg 3 times.
I hope to make a video soon to show you guys just what I do to get my results. But in the meantime this is all I can do for you.
If you need help or you don't understand what I'm trying to say, email me or comment on this post. Anything you would like to add, Comment whatever that might be.
I'm wishing you guys a powerful and wonderful week. I will be adding my post week 2 up later on today or later on this week.
See you lovely ladies later!

Bloating: Salt Is The Enemy
Morning Bodies'! Let's jump right into the topic of today. Today's topic is the insight on bloating. More than anything the enemy of sodium better known as Salt. Salt is part the wonderful world of seasonings. It hides in many of foods, enhancing the flavor beyond our taste buds. So, why must it be so bad for us?
Salt must be taken in consideration when we diet. When we get bloated from salt its all of the excess creating a fluid build-up. That later or immediately gives us a very uncomfortable feeling. That's because it has raised our blood volume with makes our heart work harder than before. It's unhealthy to consume too much salt. It's best we shape the intake of it wise. This can later save us the chances of high blood pressure and diabetes.
We are generally advised to take a heaping 2,300 milligrams of sodium. For the older people that have already been affected by its effects, should think about nothing more than 1,200 milligrams. With disciplining the dosages and a couple other factors, we can reduce or even eliminate bloating itself!
So what else can we do ? Drink water! Chug it down and worry about catching your breath later. Drinking water cleanses our insides, flushes out all the unwanted materials and also hydrates. Sodium actually dehydrates our bodies, so you can see why water can attack that factor. Why not grab a banana every once in a while. Anything that is rich with potassium balances our sodium intakes. Elevate your legs throughout the day to allow circulation and flow of the blood in the lower region. Eat vitamin rich foods so you eliminate bloating due to water retention.
See how just simple little things we eat factor our appearance tremendously. Try it and see how much the bloating goes away .If your already a low-sodium in-taker, then your one step ahead of the pack. Keep up with the good work and encourage your loved ones the same. It never hurts to support our inner circles.
I hope your Week 2 was great!! Mines surely was. Don't forget to vote on my NEW polls. I need some direction on where to take you guys next. What should my first video be about, and what do you have trouble finding the most. Once, again enjoy your day and I'll catch you guy back here tomorrow. Just for a heads up, you all get a chance to see my drawing skills, and exactly what I want to look like this June !!
See you all later and be safe. It's getting crazy out here

Big BOOTY Methods: Dry Brushing
Good Afternoon my lovely people! I sure do hope that all of you are having a wonderful day so far. Remember to wear a smile, because it's healthy and it keeps people out of business.
Well today I want to cover a topic I came across a while ago. Its a method called dry brushing. Dry brushing is the act of pushes fat into other places with a set of motions applied to the skin. Its simply just taking a brush and stroking it to the butt area. Think of it as a massage for the booty. Caressing and loving every bit of it. I look at it as a way of taking some alone time with yourself. Taking the time out to stroke yourself the way you please ! I also found this quite interesting for our experiment of body transformation! It's nothing that hard about it so, lets try it!
It helps:
*Improve blood circulation
*Smooths skin
*Eliminate cellulite
*Tightens skin
*Redistribute fat!
It's seem to be a fun way to push out that tush! With that being said, add this to your routine next week. I want everyone to go out and get a brush. A wide bath brush, nothing to hard that it hurts the skin. Do it as often as you like but preferably in the morning and before you take a shower.
Again,I'm going to work on putting this in the upcoming routines for us. Now that optional, just like everything is optional for you to try. Participation is needed!!
Well see ya lovely ladies later!
