Embracing My Natural Veil [Hair]

Me as a child with my natural hair; 4 years of age.


Today I thought i'd share with you a little [well kinda lil] bit about my  'natural hair' journey - third time on record.

On Saturday 10th October 2009, I sat in a Salon staring at the mirror contemplating what to do with my hair. I was in the process of trying to grow my hair out of a cropped Rihanna-esque hair style. But the condition of my hair of late was getting to me, I had that one problem area that just had a mind of its own #yeahthat. This one area had been growing fine and then *poof* disappeared like Delilah herself had come like a 'thief in the night' and done the honors of shaving it off! #mysamsonmoment dramatic, oui! o_O My hairdresser was as baffled as I was at why this had happened and suggested that perhaps it may have been caused by some sort of trauma [I had an op, mind you that was late 07 when that took place - trauma??] or medication that I was on at the time that may have contributed to this mysterious hair breakage, and *cough* dryyyyness.

OPI Pirates Of The Caribbean Collection


This May look forward to an OPI collaboration with the upcoming film from Disney The Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Sidenote: I am sooo excited about this film, since some of the scenes were filmed on my campus - whilst I was sat in lectures at my university last autumn/fall, and I love Mr Depp! Anyhooos...back to the news! 


There will be six shades available in the range: Mermaid’s Tears, Stranger Tides, Planks A Lot, Sparrow Me The Drama, Skull & Glossbones, Steady As She Rose as well as a Silver Shatter Top Coat. Imagine how amazing a shatter effect in silver is going to be ay? With just one coat of the Silver Shatter over any dry nail lacquer will result in a crackle pattern appearing instantly. The new shades are priced individually at £10.50 each and there will also be Pirates of the Caribbean Minis - sold as packs of four for £12.75. Stockists include www.lenawhite.co.uk

So who's going to be walking the plank in May to discover Stranger Tides? 


Will you be indulging in this collection?
