Me 'n My 'Fro: The Many Ways I Wear My Hair

By now you already know what I wear depends on my mood curvy divas , and in some circumstances where I am going, and what I will be doing.  This goes without saying that my hair is no different.   My hair style depends on what I wear, where I'm going, and for the most part, do I have time to fix it into any desired styles! Yes, the demanding life of any mom can be very hectic. Inspite of all that I have to do, and factoring in the "age factor", my one guilty pleasure to myself is to always look the best I can at all times.  Mind you, there have been some "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn" moments.  But those are few and far between. I love my hair and having fun with styling is a part of my routine. Below are the many looks I've worn, courtesy of Google+ Awesome Photos, here four hair-selfies of me.  Have you ever tried Google+ Awesome photos? You should.  If you're on Google+ add me and I will add you!...

Me 'n My 'Fro: On Being Natural - How it began

I mentioned the first article I wrote   about my hair that I would share with you my hair journey curvy divas. For the next couple of Wednesdays, that is what I will do on this blog.  If you are black aka African American as we say here in the United States (technically, I'm Caribbean-American), you know the ins and outs of our hair journeys. The success, when you rock your hair and look fierce; the woes, when you just give up and put on a hat!lol! And even wear a hat, just because you wanna rock that new hat!   I have always had what some called "a head full of hair", so much that the authenticity of my hair came into question quite a couple of times.  My mom loved to style our hair (my sisters and me) and would always have her girls looking beautiful in ribbons and hair clips where ever we went!   There are two incidents I remember distinctly, as a child, and as an adult.  Once in Primary school (that is Elementary here in the USA), a teach...

What Not To Wear: The Doobie-Wrap Hair Look

I was watching the AMAs last night, it was entertaining for me because I'm a big fan of Pitbull and was so happy to see him, a Latin American in that forum on the MIC - Man In Charge. (Yes I made that up).  The red carpet was interesting, I saw some great looks and some not so great looks. I didn't see everyone though but man, now I'm glad I didn't because after I saw RiRi aka Rih Rih aka Rihanna on the stage accepting her music award, well, I almost fell off my chair! Photo courtesy of Perezhilton.com I did a double-take and confirmed that yes, Ms. Rihanna was wearing an unfinished look at the  AMAs .  So aghast I was, I even tweeted it: Donna  ‏ @ ForeverSerenity 21h Only # RiRi can dare to wear that hair look in front of billions!!! U have to be black to know what I'm talking about... # AMAs My comment was a bit more demure... thinking maybe she forgot to take her hair down?  I mean, really RiRi?   That's the look we black women, some L...
