Today I thought I'd share some photos of my natural texture. I have a huge range of textures throughout my head and since my hair is so dense I found it particularly hard to take photos of the curls, but here is my attempt.

Errol Douglas: Treat & Style Keratin Iron
I would be surprised if you hadn't heard of Errol Douglas, but if you haven't he is some what of a hair hero. He is one of the most influential hairdressers in the world and was recently appointed President of The Fellowship For British Hairdressing. He has now teamed up with Corioliss to create a hair dryer and a straightener (which curls too!).
The most interesting appliance is the straightener, it features a keratin capsule system built into the iron. It results in shiny and healthy hair. I've even read that it can penetrate deep into the cuticle and if anything like the video has to go by, it's true!

How many sites do you know dedicated to mixed race women? one? two? Even with the huge and fast increae of the mixed race population there is still little diversity recognition from brands in the UK.
New blog ThandieKay.com is a revolution for all mixed race women and women of colour. It has been created by the stunning Thandie Newton and Kay Montano who are both mixed race.

How to look after your hair at university
Freshers is on it's way, the time of your life is about to begin. New people, new flat, new county, new everything. For me, I found my first year particularly hard to take care of my natural hair, in fact I didn't really look after it at all. It's as if I just forgot everything I knew about hair care, in favour of heat tools, quick detangling sessions and 1 minute 'deep conditions'.
It's true, looking after your hair living at home is a whole lot easier than looking after to your hair at university. For me, my close friends were 5 boys and two girls with naturally straight long hair. So how was I going to get away with look deep conditioning sessions, over night curling and endless detangling.
