So Blessed!

Guess I wasn't the only one who got tired of mopping wig sweat off my forehead and suffering.    That summer heat got to her too.   

decided to celebrate the new season of her show, The Show, by launching her own holiday National Real Hair Day on September 8th.

Banks said she would debut her natural hair and urges you to follow her example:

"This season on The Tyra Show we’re taking it to the next level and getting more real than ever before by encouraging women everywhere to own and rock what they’ve got and be proud! For the Season 5 premiere, I will be doing just that - no fake hair, I’m rocking my REAL hair. This will all be going down on September 8, 2009, which we’re declaring National Real Hair Day! We welcome everyone to go natural with me!"

I wish Tyra would wear her natural hair more but I understand why she doesn't because she does so many shows. Some of her wigs look a little barbie dollish to me. I would like to try wigs for different colors and styles but I've got too much thich hair on my head that I would probably faint from the heat. LOL

My natural hair is falling out in clumps, so the only way I'll participate is to wear a HUMAN hair wig on that day.

Hi; are you treating your hair? If not, here are a FEW tips...and they may or may not work.

Go to GNC....buy the Hair Nail and Skin vitamins....if the dosage calls for 1 a day, take 2

Believe in Aphogee.....if you cannot afford to go to your stylist for a breakage treatment, Aphogee is one of the best (it stinks...something bad....but it works)....only use the Aphogee every 6 weeks.

NeXXus makes this product called KerPHix (I think).....it is a conditioner....don't rinse it out....only apply a little (like for a moisturizer) and wrap your natural hair....it restores the PH balance in your natural hair.....

Don't stress your hair....leave the chemicals be for a hot minute.....keep your hair in a wrap or braid in cornrows....not with added hair (extensions) and put on a human hair wig (ENSURE to wear a satin or silk wig wrap to protect your hair)

The key is really to keep your hair trimmed, moisturized and stress free during the shedding, clumps period.

Don't focus too much on the hair you are losing, focus more on the regrowth!

OH and NEVER go to bed without protecting your own hair....if it is hard to sleep in a satin or silk cap, buy you a satin or silk pillowcase...you can find them in beauty supply stores.

I focus not on my disabilty; my focus is on my ABILITIES.

Can I just say EFFF Tyra Banks and her real hair bull schitt!!

Everybody don't have thick hair evrybody don't look good in a fro, dreds, bobs etc,... If you feel confident wearing a Perm, weave, braids, bald its on you.

But I'll be damned if I'm gonna let that heffa tell me I aint real or proud because I like to wear a weave. I am real and I like different hair styles get the eff over it! There are so many other things she could be embracing!
 
Thats sum bull,.. She is not gonna be there everyday to do my  short, thin permed hair. I don't have her stylists, make up artist, and wardrobe personel that are gonna come to Texas and follow my happy azz when the Texas sun heats up to 105 and the dry wind is blowing my hair up on one side looking all stiff and crazy when no curls are going to stay in it. Come on now just like we all have different breast, booties, hips skin tones and face shapes we all have different hair issues. That is soo much bull! As a matter of fact the next non black woman that asks be if I am participating in that bull I am going straight off on them. Why don't you go without make up, go without a bra wear your natrual saggy ass tities day,... go w/o panties, don't douche, don't use deoderant thats natural, Don't use soap, don't brush your teeth, come on really?

Educate our young sisters,.. Talk about aids in the black community, go w/o sex nasty Bit@h,
Hair come on,.. take on something that shows that we care about more than how we look, what we drive. Dive in use that platform for more damn,...

now you all can flame on,... I don't care. It's my opinion!
