How to hem chiffon with a sewing machine

the back



I have tried a lot of freaking techniques, for the hemming of soft lace like material.... like chiffon. If you are one of those highly skilled seem-tress unlike me who can hem up that material please help a sister out. If you are not and you need help just like me, here is how I like to do my hemming of this material. This technique will allow you to still get a nice clean flowy finish.

These are the best pictures I could get from the client. So I'm sorry if it is not high quality

I got a trim

sadface

 You can't really tell now but over the weekend; I got a trim at a salon. Walmart baby! I know crazy but the stylist there was really good at her craft. I told her what I wanted and she was able to do it to a "T". I was pretty shocked. I told her to be careful how much she cut but to even it up in the back. It looks like she fixed up my layers too. So now when I curl my hair it has so much body and waves. I have fallen in love with my hair all over again. It's crazy how a good trim can change the health of your hair. Boy, my ends were looking straight crazy.
 She cut off a inch. So instead of being only 3 inches, now I'm only 4 inches away from waist length. Come on hair and grow.

summer flowers nail art

I love being a girl, painting my nails is just so much fun. This is my first time using my acrylic paint to do a nail art design.  It came out decent for my first time.

deep conditioning

I have been deep conditioning a lot more lately. I am really trying to get to waist length. I have been using this product below with jojoba oil mixed in it .

talk about amazing results
This big fro is from blow-drying like usual. I flat ironed my bangs instead of just simply braiding them, which is what I do the majority of the time.






Summer abstract nail art

I'm so mad because I didn't have time to do my nails at the wedding.. I had all these ideas for the big day and I totally ran out of time. So what I did was cut them all short and shaped them up. They were totally bare no color. It was pretty boring but it is a opportunity to start over and grow them long again. The first look I did since the wedding was this super easy abstract look which contains a few yellows and oranges.




Sorry for the smush art work on the nails. I was kind-ah rushing when I did these.

the Indian thriller

At first I thought this was a joke but then someone informed me that they were so serious.  This was a released music video in India. I chuckled a little when I saw this. It is crazy how different our cultures can be.

Rocking the braids for a while

I'm going back to my mini braids. I know my hair now and its screaming break time.  I have been really enjoying my hair and playing all up in it. I want to say about 4 months of major manipulation. Braid-outs, flat-ironing and dyeing my hair is what I call major manipulation and damage. My plans are to leave my braids in for about 2 months. 
So I'm going back to my braid routine.


BRAID ROUTINE:
Sunday- Shampoo
Monday- co-wash
Tuesday- co-wash
Wednesday- deep-conditioned
Thursday- co-wash
Friday- co-wash
Saturday- co-wash

every three week redo braids

I love my little short braids. They are so cute. I know a lot of people won't like them but that is me and it fit my style. I missed my braids. I retain most of my length with this style and now that my hair is color treated I have to be on my "A" game.

Honeymoon

 God is good and all I can do is praise his name. I am finally done moving in and have settle down into my new home. I just can't thank God enough for all of the safe travels from Texas, Florida and Missiori. I just wanted to thank all friends, family and well wishers who have been praying for us. We can't thank you enough. Below are some pictures of our fun honeymoon. We both forgot to bring a camera so all the pics we have are from our phones but all of these are from my crappy phone camera....enjoy



There was no-way, I was going anywhere without sun protection.I wore this hat the whole time. It was super hot and sunny and I didn't want to get sun burn on my scalp or face.


SEA WORLD



I wish we had taken more pictures of the animals. The exhibit at sea world was just amazing and the animals seemed well taken care of.

DISNEY 







If you don't know me yet. I always like to get into things. So while they were playing  they let me jumped in and dances.

I really felt like a kid again. It was so much fun. I wish we could of stayed there for two weeks instead of one week. It just wasn't enough time to see everything.

Hubby being a fatty at breakfast...lol
