Sharing My Products In Youtube Video

.......... Hello Everyone ...........


I am so excited to tell you my products are now in YouTube..... Yes!!!! I have started YouTube channel dedicated to my online clothing line. I am so glad I made this decision since I know some customers would like to have an option of seeing clothes in video for best judgement.

As you all know my clothing line is only an online store  so I would only post pictures of clothes, adding videos to showcase the clothes is another way to add another experience to my customers to be able to view products. As my 4th Anniversary for my shop is on its way, adding YouTube channel is another milestone to my business since this is another channel to connect with my customers and advertise my products.





I hope you join me in my channel and let’s keep in touch by subscribing to my channel to see my videos coming in the future.


Thank you all for being part of my journey and stay blessed



Cheers

Hot Head Cap

........... Hello Everyone ...........

Hope your week is going well

As someone who has natural hair there are lots of things that I learn and also I discover new products everyday. One thing that I discovered was HOT HEAD, when I was searching for products/things used during deep condition I came across Hot Head Cap, so this became as the to do list in my product collection.

Like 6 months ago.. I do not remember exactly I was contacted by Thermal Hair Care store owner who requested for sponsor Ad. I accepted the Ad and it was live in blog. Apart from that they even sent me Hot Head Cap and I am so glad I have this cap and it has become my must have product in my hair accessory collection.

At first I was using plactic cap only so I needed more heat so I would go to saloon but This product has saved my time on going to saloon for steaming purpose only. It can provide extra heat needed for steaming.






Would I Recommend this Product?
YES, I recommend this product to anyone who doesn't have home hair steamer, because it is easy to use and can also be packed and move with it when travelling.

Visit Thermal Hair Care Store if you would like to purchase similar product.

How I Shop/Ship Products from US Online Stores to Africa - Series 1


Hello All,

So Today I thought of doing a series of how my Items are delivered from USA to Africa. I have been doing this activity for almost one year now and I am happy with the service so I thought I should share with you.

Most of the times I would like to purchase items from USA and send them to my destination which is in Tanzania…. BUT I don’t know may be 99% of websites don’t ship their items to my country. So you either have a friend who will travel to TZ to take your items…. Or forget about online purchase from USA shops


But now I have solution…. Use third part companies that will ship your items on your behalf from USA to your destination country. And this is very helpful process to us who live in countries that most of online shops in USA don’t ship products to.
I can’t tell you which third part to use, but I will just mention one third party that I have been using and is called USGOBUY. I have used this more than 6 times and I have been satisfied with their services. So you may still find an alternative company that can provide you such services

How I have been using this process… I buy and send products to their warehouse and then I submit parcel delivered to me or I would let them buy for me which I would pay extra % for shopping assistance and they send to warehouse and from warehouse to me.

So far this are the advantages that I have been receiving from using USGOBUY
- Free membership
- 90 days storage free
- Free consolidation (when you have multiple package that you have order, you wont be charge to combine all the products together to ship them as single parcel)
- No sales tax in Oregon
- Website is easy to use
- Great costumer services

Before I take you further you need to register with USGOBUY and you will receive your US shipping address that you will use when shopping from US store (In the address they give you Apt No, I guess that is your unique code to know the parcel belong to you. When I was shopping early I was not indicating that Apt No., the parcels arrived where not automatically updated I had to inform them to re-allocate the my arrival parcel's tracking number)

So will be taking you through this series and you can slowly learn from my experience


SERIES I: Buy Yourself and Ship to warehouse















  • Buy your products from any site you would like from US, and shipping address should be the one that you have received fro USGOBUY


  • Your products will be shipped to USGOBUY warehouse, and if they are delivered you will find your parcel has updated with the same tracking number that you were given from the site you purchused  your products


  • Now, you can submit your parcel to your country destination. You may choose to submit all products and ship them individual. Or let them stay until you are ready to ship to your country destination


  • If your Parcel are shipped to you.... wait for them to be delivered and enjoy your parcel. Simple Like That
I have taken you through the first series, I will post the second series in future when I find time to compile my posts. But for now you can start with this.

Also, you can use this to many countries destination, not only to Tanzania. Visit there sites and learn more

Please Note
*** These are my personal experiences ***
*** I don’t have any affiliation to USGOBUY ***
*** Use these contents and try the services from either USGOBUY or similar services company ***



Thank you and Stay Blessed

Consider This Before Purchasing Natural Hair Products

........... Hello Everyone ...........

So today I thought I should share with you my consideration before I go purchase my natural hair products. As you all know there are lots of products out there and choosing right products may not bee as easy as it seems. I in here I have highlighted the things I look before I purchase my products





- Ingredients
Looking at the ingredients to know that they do not contain some of the ingreadients which may harm my hair.... I have week hair so I prefer products with the ingredients which can promote my hair growth, moisture and make hair strong.

They say you should stay out of products which contain Sulfate, Paraffin....**** Thanks to people who made this research its easy for us at this time to just quickly identify this unwanted ingredients in natural hair products


- Price
I am so looking onto the Price, I mainly looking at the SALES.... Becouse most of my products are imported I am not looking towards the expensive products (unless I real need to try it). I prefer SALES to save more so that the save money in during purchases can be used to shipping costs. At all I am looking for products which can go to up or around $10


- Size
I dont like re-purchasing again and again is to costfull for me becouse paying for shipping changes, so I like products in "big container" which can last me for so long preferably on mainly use it can take up to six months... which I use the mix of products like that then can last me for 1 year. I prefer products containers of 16oz and above, but I can still reconsider 12..13...14..15 oZ not too bad





- Multi-purpose products

I like those types of products which can play many cards at the same time, can easily be picked and fill the gap if I run out some certain products


- Reviews

I also re-considered reviews on products, I believe if many people recommend to certain products it must be GOOD..... so reading the reviews is must have before I make purchase but some time is also to try something to judge it your self.




So that's it for today.... before I go I would like to thank you for reading my post and feel free to comment below and don't forget to subscribe.


Thank You and Cheers

DIY Natural Hair Deep Conditioner

........... Hello Everyone ........... 



Happy New week to you all.... This week I will share with you my DIY Deep Conditioner that I have built trust to this conditioner and I am happy with the result, have been using this conditioner since December last year every once a week during my wash day.

 



So just quick in pointing out why I use below ingredients without going so deep

Avocado – for deep moisture and to strengthen
Banana – use this for slip (act as detangler) I once tried to eliminate banana in the mix and I added mayonnaise but I did not like the results so I went back and stick with banana
Honey – moisture retention
Egg – For Protein (prevent hair loss)
Oil - Adding oil is option and I just add any available oil nearby, but above ingredients are just enough. But for this conditioner that I am showing you today I used Olive Oil




With my hair length and the thickness of my hair just half avocado, one banana, 1 egg and 1 spoon of honey and added oil was enough for one use

Take your  ingredients in your blender, blend and then … Make sure Make Sure you sieve before you apply to your hair. Sieving will prevent those large particles to stick to your hair trust me they might take a week to come off, it happened to me.



How I use it
     - I apply generous amount of deep conditioner  to my hair (for my case I like to apply to dry hair) from roots to edge, this conditioner is cheap so I don’t worry on how much I use. And immediately after applying I will see my curly pattern popping out “this is the moment of joy” I real like to see my curly patterns and this deep conditioner just gives me that happiness.

         - Cover with plastic bag and Let it seat for 45 minutes and wash it away


After I wash away the DIY deep conditioner, I have 2 options to choose… which will depend on my mood and also depends on the availability of products. This step also helps in taking away that smell of  ***eggs on hair. Either way that I use is okay with me

     1. Either take just regular conditioner like Tresemme or Garnier  and apply to your the hair and wash to take of excessive or remaining DIY deep conditioner on hair (do like co wash)


        2. Or apply moisture deep conditioner and again let it sit for another 45 min while covered by plastic bag and then wash

And that's it once you complete it done... your hair is deep conditioned and health..... its simple and very very cheap!!! 


I am sure you can find the time to do this DIY
If I can definitely you can too

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and please share your DIY deep conditioner with me in the comment below

Jamaican Black Castor Oil

...........  Hello Everyone ...........


So 2016 is here and we are counting down to complete the first month of January... so far so good I am still in the line

This week I received my bottle of Jamaican Black Castor Oil, it is the first time I have purchased the JBCO though previous I had the normal castor oil. I have read so many good reviews of this oil with said benefits to hair growth. Some benefits of JBCO are as below (source)

1. Increase hair growth
2. Thicken hair that is starting to thin out
4. Reduce and prevent hair damage
5. Eliminate dry hair
6. Make the hair fuller and shinier
7. Deeply condition and moisturize hair and scalp
8. Prevents dry scalp
9. Boost your hair’s overall health


How I am going to use this oil

I want to use this oil at list 3 times a week on my edge and roots (especial of edges)
When styling I will use it to seal my ends
Once a month include this in my hot oil treatment


What I want for this oil to work for me

I would like this oil to do a miracle on my edges 
To promote my hair grow
To stop hair shading (i have this problem and I hate it)


This journey starts today 21.1. 2016 and is going to be in phases.... First phase which starts now is going to be a 3 months challenge. Then I will do my first review, which will also determine if I should proceed in the second phase. 

Below are my current picture of my edge and hair length 




I am so excited to include this in my natural hair journey and I so hope for this to work for me too.

I know many people have used this oil, please fill free to leave comments below and let me know what are your reviews

Thank You and Nice Weekend
