'Good Hair' the movie

So....
Comedian Chris Rock was inspired to create the film when one of his daughters asked why she didn’t have "good" hair. Its an amazing experience to sit and listen to children speak about what's beautiful and what isn't. Of course the media has a lot to do with many of their responses. Most believed Beyonce was better than Erykah Badu & India Aire simply because of their hair. Surprisingly, my daughter preferred the natural haired sistas over Beyonce ( we are both HUGE Beyonce fans) and I was quite proud! Personally, I wear a relaxer because my hair is short and it needs to be straight for the styles I like to wear. "Good Hair" to me is healthy hair!














If you haven't seen a trailer of the movie, see it here.


This a Must See for all races, creeds & colors.
Check it out October 23rd in a city near you. Let me know your views on the trailer or what you believe "Good Hair" is.

Why am I so in love with pink?!

I bought this pink lipstick 'Girl about town' from MAC (I know it's old). I have so many glosses to try this with! I'm excited!! Well, here are some photos of me in it!! Can I pull it off? My boyfriend is a hater so hopefully I'll pass the pink lips test with y'all!!

Studio Tech Foundation
Mineralize Skinfinsh Powder
Fever (blush)
Shroom, Nocturnelle, Handwritten, Idol Eyes, Big T, Black Black Chromaline, (eyes)

Oh yeah! I made this wig right!?! I was gonna do some looks in it but my daughter took some scissors to it before I could turn into "Tiffany" (the other me) in it. Don't tell nobody I cried when I saw all my hard work laying in the floor cut to pieces. :( I was able to wear it out twice due to me having my swine flu hair going on. My hair hadn't been combed in like a month. Anywayz, I wore it to my first post swine flu outing to the wax museum. The little young boys were on me like I was 16 or something! Uhhhh..NO! I was super offended. But here's a photo from my outing.>>>

What's a Kymmy to do??

So.....I've been asked by some of my followers, friends, and family members to do "start from scratch" youtube videos and post. Basically, I been asked to break down the face, the structure of the face, what products are used for what, where to place the products.....etc....

Each post and/or video would be broken down into facial sections.

Would you all like to see it here on my blog, or should I just keep the "basics" for my youtube videos? Please share your thoughts!!!
