20 min hair

- This took less than 20mins
- My hair was clean and conditioned
- When you do this in the shower, the steam from the hot shower will help your treatment penetrate better.

Just a few more hours to the meet-up! It's a sunny day out here in Nairobi, may the god of small favors keep it that way for another 48hours.
Moving on!
I can't wait to see all the different hair styles and outfits that y'all will be rocking. Well, I'm sure by now you know that Nyachomba and I are huge fans of fashion (eclectic and individual style to be precise); so we figured, why not throw in a prize for the lovely lass (or lad) who will be sporting the most unique look. So there you have it! A gift for the most unique/ individual look! Work it!
We will also be giving away a prize for the most sociable socialite! This individual will receive a gift for being the most outgoing and chatty bee at the meet-up. Go on, make a few new friends :) We shall also have 2 free hair consultations by yours truly up for grabs!
For those of you who wanna be down with the product swap, be sure to carry that hair care product that you don't want anymore. I've got my duplicates ready for departure. Remember though, nothing less than three quarters full (c'mon, it's only polite).
Now... on to the grand prize. The raffle winnings.
Nyachomba and I selected all our favorite natural hair care products that we trust and swear by and put them into this one fabulous gift basket (of pure awesomeness). We even threw in a couple of our personal smile-bringers (candy, nail polish...) The gift basket also contains hand-crafted earrings by the lovely Iquira. Shall I go on? Pure shea butter pudding, conditioners and cleansers.. e.t.c. Why you ask (L'Oreal forgive me) BECAUSE YOU'RE WORTH IT!
Raffles tickets fetch for KES 200! If possible came with change ready at hand. We will have the final draw at the end of the days activities. If you're a gambling woman such as myself know that you are permitted to buy more than one ticket. May Lady Luck smile upon you my dearies!!
We'll be seeing all you rock stars tomorrow. I cannot wait.
Mad love.

I've had my locs for 3 and a half years now! And before that I was the queen of braids haha! I tried ALL types of braids! Then when I got tired I cut it into a short hair-do, which I thought would be easier to maintain - SHOCK ON ME!!! I practically lived in salons (HATE SALONS BTW) After a month of that, I turned to locs. The idea was to have them for at most 2years, but I fell in love :-)
Hahaha my family has known to expect the unexpected with me, be it in terms of piercings and unconventional stuff. When I got the locs everyone just went with it, they weren't too shocked :-)
3. With your poetry, do you think your locs play alot to your poet image?How does having locs affect your career?
4. How do you take care of your locs and what products do you use?
6. What do you love most about having locs?and how do you style them?
8. For your poetry, what inspires you and how did you get into it? You started Open Mic, how is that going?
Happy Thursday Lovelies
