So I’ve been dealing with an “open/ pending” renewal since FEBRUARY! Went into an office February to speak with a caseworker, turned in all information they needed yet the renewal was never reviewed and closed. Since about May this year, my SNAP benefits have been getting denied every other month. Went back to my local office and sat with another caseworker, that did not properly update my case or uploaded documents! That lady told me I had to reapply for SNAP, which I did..

I’ve been without benefits since July 1st. Just went back into my local office today, and sat with a caseworker who was a Godsend 🥲 took her about an hour but she got the renewal and my benefits worked out! Oh my goodness just bless her heart. She also advised me to do my January renewal in December so it is already in the queue. Not sure what’s going on in the recent years but this system is denying benefits, people are outright owed. Seems like some case workers may not know what they’re doing as well..

It’s been a hell of a journey learning both me and my daughter’s hair! I love it tho and wouldn’t trade it for anything. We naturally have super high density 🦁 but I think my daughter has double my density with her dad’s curls! 💫 An amazing head of hair and I’m glad we get to go on this journey together 💘

EDIT: I used detangling spray for the back but the front had edge control that had to be washed out first! Thank you all so much!!

Let me see what you got! Lol saw this and thought this would be a great comedy relief 😅 I’ll start it off

And it was so freeing! After my mother relaxed my hair all my life this is something I’m not used to.. Had my hair wrapped in a bun, while my sister wanted to do a spontaneous photo session. Took the bun down and let my hair do whatever she wanted 🫶🏽 I could cry, I’m so in love with my natural hair in any state!!

Here she is: installed, and curled! Sorry for the wait I’m trying to enter my content era lol. Had to get my footage. But who would ever think this was a $30 Amazon wig?? Ha haaa ❤️‍🔥😝

For the people that wanted more details.. Here’s my tutorial of my synthetic wig I just dyed today! If I was not clear on something I’m open to answering your questions

Thought I’d show the 613 unit installed! (Tried a new lace glue just ignore it lol) I bought my last 613 unit for summer of 2024 and had a ball with it. Been sticking with black hair for 2 years so I’m a little excited getting back into colors. Definitely going neon blue middle part after I get tired of the blonde.

I’m an Amazon scalper and I’m not ashamed. 🤷🏽‍♀️😂

Just a girl in her 20s that loves finding affordable wigs to “flip”. Human hair wigs are more of an investment for me, and I only buy curly human hair wigs so they don’t tangle. Other than that, I pluck, cut, color, layer, curl, bump, or wave all my synthetica’s! This is a beautiful Amazon unit I just ordered that surprised me! $30 for 30” 13x4 wig, Knots are small and doesn’t have that harsh shine to it. I’m rocking the blonde right now, but I plan on dyeing it a few different colors with rit dyemore! Don’t sleep on synthetics, I’ve been doing it all with my synthetic wigs for years. 💛💛💛

So I’ve been sitting back and collecting everyone’s thoughts and opinions on this. Production is clearly trying to turn RHOA into Shamea vs. Porsha. Shamea confirmed in this new interview that “THE DOOR IS CLOSED” and she’s good with only K. Michelle, Pinky, and Kelli as her friends.. Coincidence much? Lol Sounds like there’s 2 sides this season and may be battle of the minions. Do you think Shamea may try to run Porsha off the show, now that she has her “team” and is comfortable in her grounding?

Porsha or Drew? 😂 I can’t this part cracks me tf up

Free hand parted the pattern. Parts aren’t 100% clean but I’m loving it. Been a while since I’ve done these on myself, wanted to share. 😊

I was always iffy with Drew and her freshman/ sophomore seasons. Latoya drug her day one, then she had this weird beef with Kenya. S13 she tried way too hard to fit in with P and Shamea. S14 the cringe beef with Sanya.. I always felt the delusional Lala land act was just a wall for Drew. Kinda like with Phaedra but with white lies. Oh but this S17 Drew? She is not tryna run from anything honey and I’m loving it. Seems like she’s on Shamea’s neck this season and I’m here for it. Thoughts?

I mostly wear braids for low manipulation these days. I believe the last time I did a wash and go was years ago. My hair was shorter then, but I used to get 3b/3c ringlets. Well now I have tailbone length hair; and I’ve ended up narrowing down my hair care routine to just shampoo, conditioner, oil and a deep conditioning hair mask as needed.

The pic is me lifting up my freshly washed hair with light conditioner. If you can’t tell by my hair parted into 4 sections, I have super high density lol. Idk how to even begin trying to define this much hair. Should I shingle? Or with my volume would finger coiling be better? Also looking for clumping products/ styling products for my hair. Would love to update with a pic if I get this wash n go thing down.

Took a break but I would like to style some soon. What curl or lash map should I use if I want a consistent, sharp cut eyeliner look?

Photos are different brands and C or D curls. Some photos are the same set from different angles.
