Just found an poem I wrote for an English class last summer and I wanted to share it!

Humility
       by, Vontreesa Floyd

Tuck away your pride
Let your flaws bleed through
Don’t try to hide,
The things God will renew


Humiliate yourself,
Be uncut, be real
Display your mishaps like torn books on a shelf
Give them time to heal


To remain humble is a must
Don’t let your vanity explode
Remember there is only One to trust
And He will minimize your load


Humility is the greatest virtue.
Pride is humility’s greatest competition.
Don’t let humility ride with pride.

Wearing Twist!


Decided to wear my twist up under a beanie and untwist the front for more fullness! This beanie is dope also and tonight I will just re-twist the front and wear my twist the remainder of this week, maybe a little longer. I really need to stop manipulating my hair so I'm trying to keep it up up and away!!! LMBO
Thanks for viewing my blog :)

Be FREE, Be NATURAL!!!



BLAZING hot nails!!!!

I"m on FIRE! Haha, but really I love this neon orange color I found at Claire's! It's called "Flames" and it was 4 bucks.

TRUTH IS!

Most Girls who have straight hair, want curly hair. Girls who have curly hair want straight hair. Girls who are short wish they were taller, Girls who are tall wish they were shorter. Girls who are dark wish they were lighter. Girls who are lighter wish they were darker. Girls who are thick wish they were thinner, and Girls who are thinner wish they were thicker.

Shea butter MIX!

I went and bought some extra oils for my hair and also to add to my Shea butter mixture!

OK so here's what I mixed:

Raw Shea Butter
Coconut Oil
Olive Oil
Grape Seed Oil
Jojoba Oil
Rosemary Oil
& Peppermint Oil

After co-washing my hair, I did a twist out with this butter and my hair is so SOFT!! Woo whooo!!!! Haha but really, it's pretty fantastic and my curls are so DEFINED and MOISTURE!!!

NEW Co-Wash Method!!!


I used a new method when I co-washed last night and my hair is amazingly SOFT and very moisturized!!! My hair takes more conditioning because it is very coarse and dry, especially during the winter... Anywho, long story short, I used Garnier Fructis Fortifying Cream Conditioner


VO5 Clarifying Conditioner (Kiwi Lime Squeeze)

Suave Professionals Conditioner Almond and Shea Butter



All together these three worked pretty well. I use the VO5 because it is a great/cheap conditioner! The Garnier Fructis conditioner is geared toward treating my color and maintaining shine and health of color treated hair! Lastly, the Suave conditioner is SWEET! It moisturizes like something serious and it's cheap also! Plus it smells great and it is definitely a staple product :-) My hair feels great right now.
