Since many of you are requesting videos… (funny thing though, none of ya’ll are even sign up to my blog. I wonder if people are really reading this???) Well, Here ya go!!! You will be getting mini series of The Hair Chemist (hair, make-up, lab and more) In The Lab…Thonn Thonn Thon Thonnnnnn (that was the piano playing base when something suspenseful is about to happen) Get it? Ok whatever… watch my debut. And yes that is all my hair. I only do the hair weave in the spring /summer (which is right about now!!!!) when the Miami Humidity wreaks havoc on my hair. Now you know, I got you! Working on that solution in the cosmetic lab too and hopefully I won’t look crazy while I test it on my own hair. Yeah right, haha, well I already look half crazy in this video. Won’t be rocking this “do” too long. I need to order some organic hair extensions for myself ASAP!

I must say, when Tracey Thomas from Next Models text me for a confirmation about a test date for Saturday, I was quit surprise. Very often Miami Models don’t call or text you before the test date. They usually call you the day of the test to confirm and may have some excuse that they don’t have a ride. Sometimes they might show up or even worst, just don’t show up. I don’t know if it’s just Miami models or just the Miami air. But Tracey, I must say was one of the most professional models I have worked with and she’s very bright, positive and not to mention beautiful. I mean, this girl has no visible pores. B-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l skin!!! I wish all my Model canvas had her skin. Including myself! Ha! I could use a little permanent pore minimize. You?? Okay K K, I’m inspired!!! I will work on that one in my cosmetic lab… I sure most of us would love a long term fix to this issue. lol

Lisa Lisa, one of my favorite models and Fabu Miami person, invited me to her mansion to doll up her fabulous Russian and Canadian girl crew. But of course I needed some make-up support to diva up Lisa's It GirL crew. So when it comes to sexy diva out on the night look, I gotts to call Channntyy Boooo. (I see you Dominicana!!! lol) Chantal Sauvignon has worked with Photogragher Paul Cobo and I on several gigs. I like her style. She keeps it real! From NYC like me, and straight up no BS! Miami has not changed her and I really appreciate that. Xoxo Chantyboo.

I’m sure most of you may know about the Bronner Bothers Hair show. You can catch a glimpse of what goes on there from the movie “Good Hair” with Chris Rock. BTW… I have plenty to say about that movie/documentary. I will be writing the producers (umh Chris) not feeling how “we” are portrayed in this movie. There is another side you know! The side that are licensed Cosmetologists who are serious about there business and into promoting hair care and hair growth. Black hair care and trichology is a serious issue! Anyways, best believe I will follow up on this, I mean; I am The Hair Chemist, right?
Okay so back to my log entry, I’m working at the BB hair show and on one side of the showroom I’m hearing about lastest flat iron techniques and all these new ceramic, ceramic coated, nano, and tano hot tools (Basically frying your hair without a chemical, which would be physical damage). Don’t get me wrong these tools can be a blessing or a straight set up (and when I say set up, I mean Hot mess)! Either way if you abuse it (your Hair) it all ends up the same way… your hair on the floor. On the other side of the showroom, you have these companies banking on the organic and trichology “solution” for the “epidemic of black women balding.” Another section of the show, you have the internationals companies (Asian and Indian and any other “ ians”) making a KILLinggg on hair extensions or what some of us call “Good Hur”
Now they have the body weave. lol
Yep, the Internationals got it on lock. How did this happen??? Well that will be discussed on a different log entry as well. Oh then to top it off the BB hair show, you got the Queens and the Divas walking around or should I say twirling around the convention showroom. They definitely bring a spectrum of life to this atmosphere. Fabulousssssss! For this show I worked alongside Dr. Adams and his pre-launch of a new hair relaxer system.

HAIRTOPIA / November 01, 2009
For the past week I have been designing this hair piece for the Glenn Jackson Hairtopia Hair Diva competition. Model Nicole Bethel approached me to put together a hair and make-up look for the individual hair model competition. Don’t get me wrong I love hair styling and pretty make-up, but when it comes to designing something Avant-Garde and enormously beautiful…. I can throw down!!! BRING IT!!!.OMG!!!!!The show was sooo long. Too long!!! Especially since we didn’t win. Yeah can you believe we didn’t win? I guess we didn’t bring it hard enough. Not!!!! Among some of the winners, was a little girl with a regular ponytail. Don’t know how she won or why, but whatever. I still love doing what I do! AND THAT IS WHERE THE TRUE WINNING LIES.
