WELCOME BACK FOR WINTER
Hi guys, before I get to posting all the back log of stuff I have for you, I want to wish all my wonderful blog readers a
VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Considering I went natural and started this blog in January this year; Christmas seemed like miles away so I'm extra happy to be here now and sharing it with you guys.
I've been desperate to give you a quick update as I was absent for much of November due to being ill but thank GOD I'm well again and ready to give a brief recap of November...

Because I was ill for most of the month my hair looked like this almost the whole time - 2 Flat Twists along the front and 2 pigtails at the back - Simples! |

The Story of Lover's Rock is a must see for anyone who wants to know about Black Britain of the 70's & 80's. This sort of documentation of a part of history, so directly relevant to so many people regardless of race, is priceless. I cant commend Menelik Shabazz enough on his work. The unheard stories of an unclaimed generation, finally given a platform. This film made me so proud to be Black British, and if like mine, your family is from the Caribbean then definitely DO NOT MISS THIS!! Click here to find your next screening: Lover's Rock Film |

I loved the Up-do Stacey was wearing on the night. Check out her YouTube channel for her up-do tutorial: The Naprika on YouTube |

We were very lucky that the Film Director Menelik Shabazz made a special apperance after the screening. After his speech I bought one of his earlier DVDs and had a word with him about his work. |

I had a brilliant night with Ketisha celebrating her birthday at Zenna Bar. Her Frohawk was Fantastic! She had it styled at a natural hair salon in Stratford (East Ldn) |

What do you think guys? |
So that sums up November for me. Unfortunately I wasn't able to make it the Natural November event in Covent Garden, but I heard good reports so I'm looking forward to next year.
For now though, it's officially time to get ready for Christmas. xx
