Loc Rejection is Real

I was told that I looked better with the Mardi Gras mask on because "it covered up my locs."  That statement came from a Black woman.

I had a different Black woman to share with me that she witnessed her manager put all applications in a "reject" pile if the applicant had locs.  This occurrence happened some years back, but who is to say that it can not still happen?

Thank God that locs are becoming more accepted in society.  Natural hair over the last year has finally become more mainstream.  Many print ads and commercials showcase women of color with "textured" hair more than ever before.

We have come a long way, but there is still a long way to go.  We need our little girls to really appreciate their God given hair versus being brainwashed that long, wavy, Remy hair is better.

The Bushy Brows and A Moustache Look

I was having a little fun today!  I found the "Big Shot" mask as I was preparing for a yard sale.  

It is amazing how bushy eyebrows and a moustache can change your appearance!  

There was definitely nothing boring about this momentary break!  Have a Great day Everyone! 


The costume mask consisted of the nose, moustache, glasses, and eyebrows all in one!
