Coil of the Day?

Coil of the Day?

You know the one of the myths concerning Natural Haired People is...
We are all into Neo Soul.

Let's perpetuate that myth...
Who is your favorite neo soul artist?

One of my favorite concerts would have been

Jill

Maxwell


Anthony

Lauryn



It still aint too late for this!!!  (wink)

However, last night I was lurking over on facebook.  I saw the flyest fro, on Conya Doss.  After seeing this fro!  I had to  know what does she do???
She is a singer with an awesome voice.  Coils, don't sleep on this.

Conya Doss


After listening to Conya, I came across Jaguar Wright.  Can you say OMG, Jaguar????
Her voice is so smooth... Kind of reminds me of a Chrisette!!  Real smooth!


As if, that wasn't enough, I stumbled across Sy Smith!!!  I am on the floor at this point.  Someone has knocked me off my feet.  It has to be SY!  When this was all said and done,  I had a NEO - Hangover!!

Coil of the Day?

Have you been around the web...Looking for your hair twin?


Is there such a thing as a hair twin?




For me personally, I dont think there is.  At the SC Natural Hair Gathering,  I observed over 50 natural haired women.  NO 2 heads were the same!


Look below:

Coil of the Day?


Who wins?

Do you consider an individual who gets a press and curl, a natural? Would you go to a stylist that does press and curls?  Would you expect that same stylist to know how to properly care for your coily hair?


This sparked interesting conversation on facebook.


One commenter even said....
I think that is the most ridicuolus thing ever. The point of wearing ur hair NATURAL is to keep it IN it's NATURAL state. Ur hair ain't NATURALLY pressed and flowy, so don't go gettin a press and curl and then brag about ur hair being natural. That pisses me off. HAPPY TO BE NAPPY!!!!

Our Deepest Fear.

What is your deepest fear?




“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”


I am somewhat bashful... this excerpt speaks volumes to me..  You may remember this verse from the Coach Carter movie, with Samuel L. Jackson!


The purpose of my blog is to shine light on others, One Coil at a Time.
