Season 1
Jewelry Ad
Challenge 4 has been the most challenging so far. This week we are actually modeling jewelry. Since I’m not a photographer, my biggest problems have been with lighting and the camera settings.
Bohemian Jewelry Shoot
This shoot was so much fun! I wanted to treat the challenge as though this wa a real modeling job.
Real, Regal and Napptural
For this photo shoot I wanted to express the idea of natural beauty in a calm everyday environment. I used some cool and warm colors to complement ..
Jewelry Showcase
I have to be honest I was not so excited about this challenge. The jewelry that I got in my package was not my taste and I had no idea how I was going to work it!
Leave-In Curl Butter Recipe
Erica's Leave-In Curl Butter RecipeI can't even begin to describe how excited I was for this challenge! Mixing concoctions and experimenting with different ingredients to create new hair products is one of my favorite things to do!
Kim’s Moisturizer

Mixing It UP

SC Mint Shikakai Recipe
Sarah Crockers Mint Shikakai RecipeTo be honest with you I was a bit skeptical about putting the Shikakai powder in my hair.

Creating my own
Creating my own Natural Hair Care ProductsBeing natural has so many advantages. Like today when I was out gathering the last few ingredients to create my natural hair care products, and didn’t have a care in the world. Not about my hair anyway. It was wonderful!
Your Coils Will …
Feel Like Royalty When the challenge was presented to me, it was quite a surprise. I didn’t think we’d be producing ads! I briefly reflected on my college days when in Communications 101 we had to create clever ads.
Always Use Protection
Growing up I’ve always been taught to treat my body with the utmost respect. So why shouldn’t my hair be included?
Soft and Sumptuous
The day I received my Miss Nappturality package of goodies I had gone to get hair supplies. When I got through the goodies I was happy to see that we received what else but a Soft and Sumptuous Satin Pillowcase!
