January 8, 2011 beauty January 8, 2011

I hope my daughter [preggo w/ our first due in June/July 2011] is like this one day…. The curly hair. The spunky attitude. Her confidence. The POSITIVE attitude. Wowsa! Love her! Michele @ Healthy Cultivations posted this video! What a great one to post! I had to steal her idea and post it for you all! I think I’ll post my first Project 52 post on Monday? And, I have a great post coming on MONEY and WEIGHT and how they correlate! Also working on some exciting new things for the FITori STORE! Can’t wait to unveil!

got my hair did | what do you think??!!

October 19, 2010 beauty October 19, 2010

So, what do you think? I went from platinum blonde and tan at my competition in May [see: header] to pale for fall/winter and BROWN hair! I thought it was too ashy but it really looks great in the sunlight. Don’t you wish we could have great lighting everywhere we go??!! I also added a new watermark to my pictures. What do you think? Do you like the cursive one or the old one? My concerns w/ the new one…. should it be bolder? should the apple be at the end again so that if someone steals a pic and it ends up somewhere else on the web, people can find me? I love it as is but I’m wondering if people who don’t “know” ...

Progress

September 24, 2009 curly hair September 24, 2009

* Thursday, September 24, 2009 * Yes, my hair is straight-ish! Thought I’d change it up a bit w/ the Chi ceramic flat iron! Progress is going to my brother’s wedding, with all of my family there, eating out every meal and sticking to my pre-cooked meals and workouts!!!! I am really proud of myself for sticking to it and doing so well! Everytime throughout this process that I have done something I never thought I could do, it has been great! I’m learning so much about what I’m capable of and it’s awesome! I also felt awesome at the wedding. I didn’t feel bloated or controlled by food. I didn’t feel pissed that my clothes wouldn’t fit. I didn’t have to dress …

My Hair Throughout the Years

June 7, 2009 curly hair June 7, 2009

I have a friend from college who did an album like this and it was the coolest thing!! I wanted to do the same, but as always, I’d LOVE feedback from you ladies!! What do you think on length and color? I’m thinking I need to keep growing my hair out for my competition next year. I also think that with a tan on stage, that blond will be the best. I also plan to stick with my curls on stage, because that’s me! What about with my pale skin??!!! Should I stick with my natural color or add some more blond? I added some blond but feel like I need to add more blond to make it show up with my curls. Keep in ...

Self portrait

April 14, 2009 curly hair April 14, 2009

While I was taking pictures of my hair for the previous post, I decided to steal Shawna’s idea for a self portrait. I always take photos straight on so I thought it’d be neat to see a photo of me from a different angle. Again, I’m stealing Shawna’s idea…thanks friend!

Product

April 14, 2009 curly hair April 14, 2009

I was asked a while ago to post on curly hair products but haven’t yet! I got some new products and thought I’d post those products as well as how my hair looks w/ them…both in the morning and after a full day at work!!! True test, right??!!Above photos – LEFT is in the morning and the RIGHT is after all day at work (without touching my hair…don’t touch curly hair once it’s styled…that creates frizz!!!)I use Redken Fresh Curls as my shampoo and conditioner. I have used their styling products in the past and liked them ok. I felt like some of them weren’t strong enough and others made my hair too crunchy….it’s always worth a shot to see if you like them …
