Anyway, while I'm in this upbeat mood, I have a couple other things that I'd like to take the time to celebrate.
1. Many thanks to Dominique on All Things O'Natural! Last week, she featured my story on her blog. You can read about it by clicking here. Thank you to those who have come over or joined this blog after reading my story there.
2. I have been finding only a little amount of hair in the hair catcher when I have been washing my hair lately! This is exciting to me because I really wanted to work on length retention this summer. I attribute a lot of my success to sealing my ends with castor oil after I cowash.
3. The Naturally Flyy Meetup group had their one year anniversary last week, with appx. 500 in attendance! How cool is that?
The theme of this meeting was "Faces, Fro's & Funk," so I decided to switch it up from my usual twist styles to an asymmetrical 'fro.

I love going to the meetups because there is so much positive energy. Everyone is celebrating each other's hair & just showing love. It's beautiful.
Since it's warmer & the weather is nice, we got to use all of Artist Village.
See, that's what I'm talkin' 'bout! Natural sistahs showin' love! BEAUTIFUL!
I was approached by Satincurls2011 & LamonicaD and asked to take a picture of my hair! I was delighted. Make sure y'all go & check out their youtube pages.
And for more of a close up...
Looking forward to more celebrations in the last days of summer to come! :-)
Congratulations on the grant! Also, it looks like you had a super fun time at this meetup. I'd love to attend a meetup one day. Enjoy the rest of your weekend. :-)
