Trap Season!

It's fall time! Even though the season is changing, the game ain't. Folx are still trappin' hard as we move into fall. Tommy Hilfiger had a runway show which included this brown leather wrap dress. If you are a boss chick that's still making money moves ... then this dress should be an inspiration!

This look represents a new street energy. People begging for less skin, then that means the harder you floss. TH show was true to it's preppy varsity style but this look right here is definitely for the graduate!

Here is the entire Tommy Hilfiger runway show!

For some of us, it takes the Holy Ghost to commit to growing out our hair because it's not going to happen overnight. And one of the fruits of the Spirit it longsuffering and extensions offer immediate gratification . Furthermore, this is a trap blog not a hair blog. Nevertheless, growing your hair out long is a new trend for black women.

Relaxed hair is making a comeback these days. One of the reasons why is because no matter what style you choose as a black woman, taking care of your hair is extremely high-maintenance. It takes just as much devotion to grow natural hair as it does relaxed hair. There are pros and cons to every hairstyle you choose. In order to bring your hair into order as a black woman you have to internalize the fact that you are made in the image of God. The curse that was spoken over black women's hair is lifting.

Heat straightening your hair is also an option especially if your hair holds heat well. It works well if you use good deep conditioner, a good flat iron and good old fashioned pressing oil. To make your style last, oil your scalp with a growth oil like Alikay Naturals' Essential 17 hair growth oil. Nourish your edges daily with Alikay's Shea Yogurt. Black hair is different from hair of other races in that it doesn't product enough oil to grow at the same rate and volume. However, black hair receives oil. If you consistently use a quality hair oil that works for your, your hair will grow.

Contrary to modern arguments, old fashioned grease does grow your hair. If you prefer an old fashioned grease, try this turn of the 2023 version of Madame C. J. Walker's Wonderful Hair and Scalp Balm - to - Oil. This product is reminiscent of the original product that initially grew her hair.
