Tracks show? Oh no!

Yes, we're going to take it there! I talking about long, short, and medium hair. It's our crown and glory, while simultaneously being the first thing people notice about you. If someone was to ask you, what are you saying about yourself by having the hairstyle you have now, what would it be? How would you answer?

As a woman, I have went through many hair transitions. Not as many as most; but I've had my share. I've done things to my hair that I've shouldn't have done in the name of beauty and trying to make my appearance more attractive to the opposite of sex. Ultimately, that's why we do it ladies! Not just for ourselves and confidence, but to be attractive.  With that being said we must address the weave! Listen, it doesn't matter to me if you wear a weave, wig, lace front, or whatever; but if your going to wear it please wear it right! 

I'm going to keep it straight up real with you, I've seen women go in public with their tracks (weave) showing and swear they're the hottest chick moving! No my dear, please have a seat! You cannot conduct business with your tracks interrupting the conversation, I'm going to need you to fix that!

I have naturally long hair that doesn't cooperate with some styles that I want to do, also I know that most styles ( though are cute as hell) I can't pull off with just my hair; due to the lack of volume. With those styles I would need a weave just to make my hair look full; but I know that I wouldn't be able to keep up the maintenance, so I stick to what I know. 

In the past I've tried to get a quick weave (only once) and I swear I'll never do it again! Do y'all remember the movie Cone heads? Well, that's what I looked like with hair! I had too much real hair to pull off the look. I quickly took that mess out, got me a relaxer(years before I went natural), and a wrap styled my hair. Also, I tried to get my hair braided using human hair; only to have the braiding hair slid, YES SLID off of my real hair; because my hair is thin (again I lack volume)! 

 Ladies, my point is this...know what you can and can't do.

 No business person is going to take you seriously
if you look as if you've never made it past your first year of beauty school. First impressions last a lifetime, second impressions cement who you are. With that being said let's take a look at some BAD impressions that tracks have made:

The only thing you can say to a friend that looks like this is...

But don't let the bad weave styles discourage you from being creative with your hair if you so chose to keep using a weave. In my own opinion, the point of wearing a weave is the same as wear great clothes. To look good and give you confidence. The best weaves are the ones that you can't tell its a weave. The hair looks natural and beautiful. In my research I've found so ladies who got it right, check out these styles:

Expanding Fashion Plus: Taking a new direction on the Business of Curves!

Hello my darlings! Being an independent writer I wear many hats. Recently I've been researching ways to grow my business. I've decided to put my degrees to use and get involved in:

- Hosting events

- Speaking engagements

- Creative directing/assisting

- and Plus Size Personal Styling

Although, plus size fashion blogging is my priority; I would like explore what it means to be a full figured business woman. In all honesty it's always been a dream of mine to expand Fashion Plus, and really be a positive voice on full figured fashion; whether its the good, bad, or the ugly. In the beginning of my blogging career I've always made it known that fashion is just the tip of the iceberg, and that women (especially full figured women) have different levels, and situations that if your not plus size won't be understood. 

My goal is to reach the women who like me felt like no one understood their hopes, dreams, aspirations, and
of course their sorrows. If I can reach them through speaking I will do that. If I can make them feel better by being a personal stylist and revamping their wardrobe; then so be it. I want to contribute to an industry that helped me find my niche as well as my voice.

Please support me in my ventures by helping me put the word out. My talents extend beyond writing and I'd like to explore them in the plus size business world!
