The SistahChick Attends Curly Girls Rock
The SistahChick & The LittleChick Attend the World Natural Hair Show
My documention of the weekend's events would not be complete without a "HAUL" report. Don't you just love a good haul? A "Haul" if you dont know, is the end sum of all items obtained in abundance from events, expos, shopping trips, etc. It doesnt matter if the items are freebies or purchases, if you love them, you got them and you brought them home... its a haul!
Curly Girls Rock sent EVERYbody home with something! I mean they were giving away SO much stuff it was crazy! They had door prizes, gift bags, samples, raffles, you name it. We were presented with a NaturallyCurly.com bag at the door. Inside the bag was: A water bottle from Harlem Nights, and Samples from Mixed Chicks, Oyin Handmade, Darcy's Botanicals, Hair Rules, SofNfree & Pooka Pure & Simple. African Pride was there giving out samples, I saw Miss Jessie's gift bags too and there was MUCH more!
I even won a raffle! I was so excited when they called my ticket # and ESPECIALLY since my prize was a Sage Naturalceuticals Gift Set. It included: Full size bottles of Oyin Handmade's Greg Juice & Honey Hemp Conditioner, A coupon for 10% off and a gift card for $25!!! What a night!

| I Just LOVE a good giveaway!! |
The next day we went to the World Natural Hair show. I must say that I was disappointed that I could not get the Jane Carter items that I wanted. I had planned to try a few new things as well as stock up on some stuff. Unfortunately, about 20 thousand people beat me to it. Oh well, since i couldn't get that stuff I moved on to other things.

I love, love, love my Uncle Funky's Extra Butter. Lucky for me they were there and fully stocked!
I was already a fan of Pura Body Naturals products, so i picked up some Sapote Hair Lotion & Capuacu Hair Butter. I also saw Afroveda there and decided to pick a couple of their products to try. I wonder if my hair will agree with their Moisture Milk Herbal Hair Conditioner and/or the Curl Define Hair Butter Cream. I will be sure to let you know!
The JessiCurl products looked interesting and smelled great. The lady at the booth was so nice I had to get some Too Shea Extra Moisturizing Conditioner. I cant wait to try it!
Since the hair show I have given Taliah Waajid's Curls, Waves, & Naturals line a try. I picked up the Curly Curl Cream, Curl Sealer and The Great Detangler. Stay tuned for the review! In addition, I picked up a few sets of TW's Kinky Wavy Natural Kids line to be used for giveaways. Each set includes: Berry Clean, Style & Shine, and Herbal Comb Out.
Can you say, "Happy Camper"?? I am gonna have so much fun trying out and reporting everything to you! Stay tuned!
Thanks as always for reading
Peace :-)
A large window in the front of the store provides a lot of natural light from the sun which enhances the modern lighting fixtures that hang high above. The floors are covered in dark chocolate tile in beautiful contrast.
As Cindy applied these 4 products seperately to each of the 4 sections on the models hair, she explained the different types of curl stimulators that are out on the market right now, and how they differ. She also demonstrated a "palming effect" that she uses to apply product for maximum coverage. The really cool thing about Sage is that you can try the products BEFORE you buy! Thats right!! for every product that she carries, there is a sample of that product available for testing. I could go on and on about the fantastic visit that we had at Sage, but i am going to do you one better and just show you!
