As I woke up to do my online radioshow this morning I got the harsh reality about technology.Although technology is a excellent source of information,entertainment,etc.....It crashes sometimes.My scheduled segment was at 7 am well my Internet was not working for some reason.Well my husband is home from med school briefly , I was so grateful because he handled it .needless to say the show started at 8 30 am. I am working on being more of a morning person but I could not stop thinking "I could have slept at least until 8am...but oh well.
The show went well .I discussed 12 New Year tips for your hair this year.You can listen to the show by logging on to www.blogtalkradio.com/beautytalk
I also had to get prepared for Nikki's appointment at 9"I know I sometimes keep a tight schedule"anyhow Ms . Nikki is on her way to a 7 day western Caribbean cruise.HOW LUCKY!I act as if I don't travel but if it were up to me vacation would be once a month.Yes I aid it I feel that it is so needed with everything we do.Well I do vacation at least every three months...even a rode trip but I have learned to do is Create a Spa/Vacation experience in my bathroom and certain parts of my home.However back to Nikki We thought that a basic cornrow style will be great for the trip.The last two times I visited an Island I had a press or weave with some hair out in the front.What a mistake ,so we did not want her going down that same route. Her hair turned out wonderful as you will see at the bottom of the page.She will be able to get her hair wet,swim if she wants. She can wear a sun hat while touring the different islands.She is set and this style will last her 4 weeks.
The other photos are my sister Neffy and her childhood friend Corey.Corey and Neffy were once natural but they did not have me around and had to relax their hair again..But with my touch and Nekesa's Natural Radiance hair products their hair will stay whipped in shape.
They both have inverted cuts. The maintenane will be wrap the hair nightly.Use NNR hydrating sheen which will not weigh the hair down. Also the NNR moisture revitalizer will work well once their hair is shampooed,conditioned and still wet.The NNR moisture revitalizer is a leave in that will act as a styling aid as well.
Until next time

Spelmanite of Excellence

Yesterday I squeezed some extra tasks into my agenda ,but that usually happens when I go out of town.I started Spelman College last year and this now will be my second semester and my major is English you are probably like why not a Business Major? Well I am already in businesss. I have been studying business and tactics for over ten years now.English will help me grow as a person and a Business woman. Life is amazing and time flies when you are having fun. Yesterday I had some things I had to handle on campus before the fall semester starts.I decided to challenge myself and take a computer graphics class. It should be very interesting.Here I am a person who never enjoyed interaction with a computer to creating websites, blogs,and now this computer class.I will now learn how to design my own fliers , marketing materials,and most of all labels for my product line.It is easy to hire someone to do things for you but there is nothing like knowing how to operate a main vessel of your company.Fro example Mr.Tyler Perry...it really is funny to me how people see only what is in front of them .Tyler Perry was homeless doing shows and wearing all the hats.He was the Make-up Artist,Ticket booth person,Director,Writer,and Actor.i am reading the book "The New Earth" and as the author explained "when people work so diligently whereas they are able to perform tasks that are out of their duty description ,are said to be working in a very spiritual state of mind"Tyler Perry,Oprah,Cathy Huges,myself Nekesa J Smith,and others are visionaires who walk in faith everyday.Tyler Perry is worldwide,but it took him believing wholeheartedly in his vision.I am so sure some people thought he was crazy.That is the part that amazes me that people see that you are doing something extraordinary,your heart is truly exposed until you go big then they comment on they always knew,can I have a job etc ,etc.God ha given us the strength to do anything we put our minds to.My thing is support new visionaries in their early stage.Who knows you might get inspired to create your own lane of greatness.Until again Look Beatiful,Feel Beautiful,Smell Beautiful with Nekesa' Natural Radiance
