Beauty Trends: Every Natural Should Check Out Naptural85’s Channel!

Hair obsessed butterflies, so as all of my long time readers know I have been natural (no relaxer) for going on two years now (still a newbie) and for me the hardest part about being natural is finding a routine and/or products that work for my hair. So where do you go when you need a little help learning how to do something? For me it's YouTube! That's right YouTube, you will be surprised at what you can learn browsing the tube.

Anyway, so a few months back while browsing for natural hair care tips I stumbled across a natural hair care guru...Naptural85! The video above is one of the first ones I came across and I've been a fan ever since. Her tips are very economical and AWESOME if I may say so myself. If you haven't checked out her channel yet what are you waiting for? Go now!

Book: Alpabet Gumbo | A Guide to Spicing Up Your Sex Life by Ique Brown

Butterflies, I recently purchased an autographed copy of Alphabet Gumbo from the author and when I first read the title it reminded me of the Chicken Soup books I use to read as a teenager; this warm feeling came over me and I though this should be a great read because I use to love the Chicken Soup books (especially Chicken Soup for the Soul). 

In the  introduction the author and Founder of Joy-gasms, D Ique Brown talks a lot about how the value of both relationships and marriage have changed over the years and then she goes on to compare intimacy/sex to food; the two things all humans crave at some point in their life.
