Blown OUt my mIND!

If you see this post, that means I posted it even though its after my flat ironed harir post.
And you probably think I'm crazy for putting so much heat on my hair. BUT! My flat ironed post, should you chose to watch the video, was actually from February and was listed as a draft so i just published.  

But since then, I haven't flat ironed my hair.. 

And this is the first time that I used the dryer on high heat and without my diffuser to blow dry my hair since then.

 I colored my hair the beginning of April, and my hair color has started to grow out... 
I'm just tempted not to color again.  




The last picture is hair that I trimed because I like my hair being even, so if it's not.. I cut it. 

Curli Girl Gone Straight..

So I finally went ahead and joined the masses.



Straight hair.

But not for long tho, because unlike the masses.. if I were to put any type of water or moisture to this bad boy.. my hair will be once again kinky and curly.

Who said curli gurls can't wear their hair straight?

I trusted my coif with the beautician in a Dominican hair salon.

She did a pretty good job.  I'll definitely go back to her for another blowout and flat iron.

Snap, Crackle, POP!!

This is mani is POPPINN
So many bloggers are doing this look. A rainbow of colors underneath some crackling polish. The idea and effect are nice.  I honestly forgot which one of the many talented bloggers I follow did this, but if I remember I will definitely update this post.
Have you seen it anywhere?

I Loved it so much that I actually wore it on my toes too..

But I ended up taking it off my digits already, still on my toes though! :)

So, the list of polishes that i used..
 hmmm .....lets see....
ChG- Tree Hugger
Orly- Orange Punch
Essie- Pink Parka
Sally Hansen Hard As Nails as a base coat & top coat




Gotta Love the Eighties!!


So I was growing through some old photos that were taken in the late 70s and in the 80s and I  was inspired to do some nail art that kinda matched.

It's a fun look and it really did remind me of the 80s. 

I'm talking in past tense because I am about to take this polish off and change to something else.  I actually change my polish more than I post about. 

Sometimes I change it twice in the same day.

My Poor Baby!

Yes, I'm talking about my HAIR!!

For the past week and a half I've been really lazy when it comes to my hair.
I'm talking super lazy. 
I haven't combed or styled it really.  I left it in an afro state and when I went to wash my hair last night before bed, it had so many knots in it I almost cried.  My hair was tangled and coming out.  It was truly a disgrace. 
I can't believe that I let my hair go like that.

I've been wearing my hair out for sometime now and I think its about time that I get something done to it.  I may do a bond-in, or a sew-in. 

I really don't want to have to deal with my hair anymore!

Sculptured Nails it is!

So for those of you who don't know, I'm trying to grow my nails but it is really hard considering that I do A LOT of work with them.

I was dishes every day.  I mop house, I wash them a lot, so they are forever soaked in water and not to mention a lot of yard work is done with them.. They take a beating, DAiLY. But I'm trying I'm trying.
I have even started using gloves, RELIGIOUSLY!

I'm a [NAIL] Fashion Addict!!

Isn't that the truth??

I love being able to find new nail fashion trends. 

I happened to be in ROSS and picked up a Color Club collection that contained this beauty.

Newspapers for reading AND for nails!!

So I have seen this little trick around the blog community for a while now.
I FINALLY got a chance to try it so i jumped on it!
I used Orlica's steps from Confessions of a Polishaholic
Originally, I purchased Orly's Pure Porcelain because it's color would look great with news pint, but this design was spur of the moment.
I was actually going to use a Bundle Monster image plate to stamp with, but I couldn't decide on which design to use.
Here is a swatch of the color that I purchased and I jumped on the love boat with. ..
It's Rimmel's  "English Rose"

Orange You Glad Summer Is Near??

I know I sure am!!
I live in S.Fla where it is hot all year round, well, the majority of the year anyway.

Leopard Wearing Leotard

No! No!

This leopard isn't wearing leotard, but it is strutting it's stuff!

Definitely considering doing a NO BUY!!!

Seriously PEOPLE!!!!
Why did I have to find out about these nail blogs??!!!!
I mean, don't think I don't LOVE THEM because i do...
But It just makes me want to get more polish.
And that is definitely a bad thing
So i am honestly considering being on a NO BUY for at least two months.
But that has to be when I KNOW FOR ABSOLUTELY SURE that I won't be being anything.
IT"S HARDDDDD
lol
Pity.
On to the things that I did buy.

Yayyy Me!!!! (Numero Uno)

Whew!!
FINALLY!!!
 A place where I can discuss my nail polish rants and reviews and tutorials and such.
It has FINALLY started with this blog post.

I have another blog, where I talk about makeup and things.. but I wanted a separate blog for polish. Why?
I still can't figure that out.

I made this blog, about a month ago., maybe a little less.
And it has just been sitting here.. on my Blogger dashboard... waiting,, practically begging for me to at least write one post.
