I decided to help a few of my friends out, who aren't really into makeup only because of the price and cost associated with most products. Everyone doesn't have a budget for cosmetics, so they choose to opt out of participating in wearing them. I totally understand. So in an effort to cater to my Recessionistas and Budget-Friendly Divas, I put together a video of some cool makeup finds that I snagged from my local Dollar Tree in RVA.
The Motivation: No one should be trying to decipher your beauty regimen, unless you want to explain that. Use whatever products fit your budget and your style intent. :-)
In this video I describe my journey with Natural hair and my feelings towards lace front wigs and weaves. I don't understand why I hate them so much now. I don't know if it's my pregnancy hormones or just maturity, I just can't stand it any longer. Now every time I see a girl with a head full of weave or a wig on, I wonder if she is insecure about her natural hair. I feel much more beautiful, because what you see is what you get. I don't have to hide or surprise anyone. I can't wait to share more with you in the future.
I decided to do a hair color tutorial for those who are trying to achieve that platinum blonde/ginger blonde hue in their hair. I use products specifically designed for African American women. I used the Creme of Nature Nourishing Permanent Hair Color Treatment in 9.3 Ginger Blonde. This entire process cost me less than $10 if you include the $5.00 jar of shea butter. However, that Jar will last a few weeks, so it only cost $5.99 + tax.
I don't take anything from professional hair stylist, however I opt to do my own hair color at home vs. paying someone else to do it for me. I advocate for the frugal fashionista on a budget and this video is for that type of woman. Let's be self-sufficient with our style and beautty!

I decided to do a haul video from my trip to Diversity Thrift store in Richmond, Virginia on Sunday November 6th, 2011. This was after attebnding the fantastic Don't Hate, Celebrate Fashion Show at The GCCR 1407 Sherwood Avenue 23220. It was a great experience and I got to walk out with alot of things for less than $15 total. From a leather jacket to some earrings, to some graphic t-shirts for my son, I was happy to say my experience and my fashion finds at this store (one of my favorites) was worth sharing with you. I hope you enjoy. Feel free to leave a comment or suggestions down below. Also, check me out at www.GaptoothDiva.com
