Well, here’s a cute and simple beanie style that you can rock on days like those.

#2 Voted Style
Hi luvs!
I absolutely adore the look of structured hairstyles. They’re so clean and sleek. Last week I decided to rock a structured style of my own with this mega French roll.
This is just one of many structured styles of mine but a lot of them tend to be French rolls. Although they may seem limited in versatility there are tons of ways to wear them. Check out more on the versatility of French rolls here.
As for this look. Love, love it!
Hi beauties!
Today I wanted to talk about 3 easy undercut styles that you can rock in a corporate environment. Now, I’ve personally worn a lot more out of the box styles to my corporate job but if you’re afraid to rock the boat or just aren’t ready to go too creative, here are a few styles you can add to your go to hairstyle arsenal.
1. Side Front flat twist – this style is very chic and conservative. It highlights just one side of the undercut and is a fairly easy and fit for a corporate workplace. Here are two different versions

2. Side Swept Mega French Roll/Twists – This is another chic and look that is more conservative for a undercut style. It also focuses on just one side of the undercut and is very sleek. Here are a couple different looks.

3. High Bun – Although this style does boast the entire undercut it is incredibly sleek and clean.
That’s it! Three easy go to undercut styles you can use if you work in corporate. I hope this was helpful!

Hi beauties!
Today I want to talk about styling for your undercut. If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook you know that I style my hair for my undercut about 95% of the time. Why? Because I ADORE my cut. I love it’s edgy look but finding a way to make it look classy. Here is a quick video with 5 tips on how to make styling for your undercut fun and SLAYful. Click here to check it out.
Enjoy!
As I was scrolling through my Instagram feed this morning it occurred to me that some of you may be thinking “Dang, what’s up with all these updos?” It’s funny, because I ask myself the same question sometimes! And every time I do, I come up with the same two answers:
1. They are more creative and well, more fun, for ME!
Now, don’t get me wrong, I love seeing a naturalista slay a fro, twist out braid out or head full of rod set curls! There’s nothing quite like it. But for me and my personal hair journey updos are just more fun!
There was a time when I was all about curl definition and achieving the texture I saw on other naturals that I adored. But then, I just got tired of all that! I finally decided to accept my hair for what it is and started focusing on how I can truly enjoy my hair journey. My discovery of updos was it!
Once I dove in it was like “Man! I’ve been missing out!” Now I get so easily bored that even when I try to keep it simple and just wear my hair out, at some point in the day I promise you, it will end up in an updo.
2. It inspires YOU with new ideas so YOU don’t get bored on YOUR personal hair journey.
So, I totally get that everyone isn’t like me. Not everyone can appreciate a slew of styles that are a little, well, out there.
Seriously, I know these looks aren’t normal. But what I want to do is to inspire you to STOP putting limits on your styling ability as well as your ability to wear a certain look confidently! And while that effort might not appeal to everyone, for the individuals that it does, I pray that what I’m doing opens up your perception of what it means to slay so that you realize your own slayage capability, outside of what you may typically see.
Hope this helps clear up any questions in my updo obsession. Lol!
Love you guys!!
Hi beauties!
I’m always talking about how much I adore having an undercut and how the decision to go for it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. Since then I can’t tell you howmany comments, misconceptions and myths I’ve seen about what it’s like to have an undercut. Today I want to share with you what I personally feel the 3 most common myths are and give you my personal insight.
1. It’s less work
Ok, so it’s pretty natural to think that if you cut off a chunk of your hair you’ll have the benefit of it being a lot less work. Not necessarily so. Cleansing, conditioning, mousturizing, it’s all still very important to your overall hair care. Having an undercut doesn’t give you a pass to skipping any of these steps. So, don’t let the idea of having an undercut equalling less work for you be your reason to join the cut life because you will be disappointed.
2. You’re going to get bored quickly
This is the probably the most common myth about having an undercut. I personally do my best every day to showcase how untrue this is. Just because your friend got bored with hers doesn’t mean you’re going to have the same experience! After I did my undercut my styling options actually increased dramatically! If you think you’re going to get bored quickly with having an undercut, I invite you to take a stroll trough my Instagram feed. Trust me, you won’t bet bored. Here’s just a sampling:
3. You’re too old for an undercut
Say what!? That’s kind of my reaction to this one. If you feel like you want to try something different with your hair, please don’t let your age or your fear of what other people will think hold you back. You are not too old for an undercut!
That’s it! I hope you’ve found this to be helpful. I get so excited when I see more beauties stop contemplating an undercut and just go for it!
