This week has been one Natural Hair-Gasm after another.  We've got Rihanna posting pics on Instagram of her beautiful Naturally Curly Hair...who knew? Wouldn't you like to see her rock her natural hair more often?

























AND then....
Oprah OMG! She even changed her Avatar pic on FB with her FRO-tastic cover of O magazine.


Alright girls, who is next?


Ok...time for a cig...jk I don't smoke.  But these ladies are smoking hot with their Natural Hair and the Natural community is buzzing! Sidebar: Oprah may have a little help with hers (just saying).

The Architecture of a Great Hair Cut

Like any great building, a great haircut has to be built on a solid foundation otherwise the haircut will collapse. I'm a hairstylist that enjoys the art of creating beautiful haircuts. One of my favorite educators from Aveda's Global Creative Team is Antoinette Beenders. I attended an advanced cutting and styling class with her and she used an analogy I really liked. She said, "Building a foundation into the hair is much like stacking bricks or pouring cement.  If there is no foundation laid we can't build anything on top.  As hairstylists, we imagine ourselves on a scaffold redistributing or adding weight to the hair with our scissors, razor or clippers."  Antoinette's message was an ahh haa moment for me many years ago and has stayed with me throughout my career .  I love being creative with hair color and use advanced techniques, but shaping the hair has always been a passion of mine. Take a look at one of the worlds most famous buildings, most people can recognize and know exactly where it is located because of its unique shape.

Mik So Chic is known for her striking beauty in the Arts and Fashion community here in Vegas, take a look at her recent shape and color and share your thoughts.

Oprah's Ultimate Favorite things 2010



This morning I'm overwhelmed with emotion after watching Season 25: Oprah Behind the Scenes. On this show she selects her "Ultimate Favorite Things" for the final season 2010 . Oprah decided to surprise Andre Walker, her hair stylist of 25 years by adding his products on her favorite things show.  The best thing that she could do for him was not only help him launch his own product line, but reveal it to millions of people across the world.

During the taping of this show, this is what happened:
It was business as usual for Oprah and her staff as they decide on the final list of her favorite things. Oprah asked Andre to come fix her hair while she was having a final meeting about the show. Oprah says to her staff, "there's one more thing I want to do.  Andre Walker is starting his own line of shampoo's, I would like to do his line of shampoo." The staff already new and everyone cheered and congratulated him because he made the cut!  His reaction was priceless and he couldn't speak. . Oprah said "nobody deserves it more!"  Andre said, "my mind went blank and I couldn't believe it." As he was crying, Oprah jokes around and says, "not a peep, not a poop all of these years and we finally broke him down!"

Andrew has only had Oprah Winfrey as his only client for 25 years! She wanted to give something back to him and this was BIG! 

Great job Oprah for giving her hair stylist Andre Walker a chance to see his dream come true.

I'm looking forward to purchasing his products, trying them out and  reviewing them here on my blog since Andre makes Oprah's hair look flawless on every show!

Congratulations Andre Walker you rock!
