Call Her Candice

Hey girl hey!  Happy Friday boo.  I don't know about you but it feels like this week just dragged.  I kept waking up every morning thinking it was Friday, only to realize it was like Tuesday.  But Friday is here and it's pay day for some of us, heeeeey!  But most importantly, Mother's Day is just days away.  We are still amidst the Mother's Day Gift Guide Giveaways and today's giveaway sponsor is Bliss!  Yes, girl... they are about to get our skin ALL THE WAY righ… Read more

This is just a preliminary meet and greet for my camera, Knight.  He is the uber popular Sony Alpha A5000 in the color black.  I am a camera amateur and like to have very user friendly cameras with lots of bells + whistles.  This one feels like it was made just for me.  I've had the camera since April of this year and thought it would be helpful/useful for me to share why I love this thing.  If you are a Photography Pro, then you may find this post a little beneath you.  This pos… Read more

Fall 2015 is here finally, yet my style really hasn't changed from Fall 2014 or Fall 2013 for that matter. LMAO.  Why?  Because I have classic wardrobe staples in my closet that really don't ever go out of style.  If and when I do add to it, I always make sure that I am not being too trendy so that the pieces carry over year to year.  Below is a post I did last year that is still very relevant today so instead of re-writing it, I thought I would just re-share.  Enjoy and share… Read more

Monday was my first official day home after resigning my corporate 9-5 job last month.  Call me an over thinker but the fact that I'm starting this new adventure at just about the same time as I am starting a new year of life (yesterday was my birthday) doesn't feel like a coincidence.  As I think about what I anticipate over this next year and how I will grow in this business venture, I can appreciate the valleys I was in to get here.  It would be great to think that my husb… Read more

It was about this time last year that I realized how influential my hair journey had become to so many women.  On Instagram, many people wanted to know what I was using in my hair or how exactly I styled my hair.  Before I knew it, my community was growing in numbers as my Curls were featured on various Natural Hair Accounts.  It wasn't too long after that the products were being sent to me for review from companies.  It was a dream come true and my husband was over the moon, LOL… Read more

One of the reasons I decided to cut the relaxer out of my hair was because of my thin edges.  I also had hair that was thinning as it grew longer with way too much shedding but the edges of my hairline was a huge concern for me.  I never had super thick edges growing up, before I even relaxed my hair.  My mother kept my hair in cornrows or ponytails for the most part which may have contributed to the thinner hairline.  So, 2012 came and I Big Chopped with the biggest hopes of growing… Read more

This has been a popular product across Social Media lately due to its inclusion in the May Onyx Box.  The Onyx Box is a monthly subscription box where you receive hair and beauty products monthly for only $25.  After seeing posts about the product, my junkie habits kicked in and I ran to my nearest Ulta to snatch it up.  While this one is specifically geared towards curls, they do have other options in this "Leave-In or Rinse Out" product line.  Since Ulta had BOGO 50% off,… Read more

I will be the first to admit that I am not all that great at remembering to moisturize my body daily.  To be honest, I probably moisturize once a week.  Oh, no shame here!  I just don't have the time to do it everyday and even when I do, I would rather do something else with that time.  So, when I buy body products that says A LOT.  In order for me to purchase products for my body (oils, butters, lotions, etc...) two things must occur.  They must smell amazing AND they must be on… Read more

Who plans a getaway weekend to attend a Natural Hair Weekend Event? Me!  I will be bringing my curls to Hampton, VA to attend the Return of the Curls Natural Hair Weekend from July 10-12, 2015.  This will be one of very few times that I am away from my entire family so yes, I will miss them, but I plan to CUT UP.  LOL.   Amber Janielle and I have been planning this weekend for months now.  Not only am I looking forward to her being a Blogger Panel Guest but we are planning to attend j… Read more

The Tapered Cut has quickly become the "It" style of 2015.  The majority of the Natural Community has either done the Tapered Cut in the past or just recently cut their hair.  I see lots of "oooh and ahhhs" over this cut and I definitely see the hype.  I fell for the hype myself obviously!!  LOL... But before you go running to your local stylist there are a couple of things I think you should know first. 1.   Find a Stylist who is not only experienced in executing … Read more
