DIY: Michael Jackson Dress Shirt Four Ways!

Hello Lovely Ones!

I'm here with a super cute and Michael Jackson inspired DIY! In honor of the King of Pop's birthday (August 29th), I crafted a YouTube video transforming a staple MJ blue collared shirt into four cute and easy styles!

The shirt used in this video was purchased from a local Salvation Army for four dollars! Not too shabby!

The 2013 Charleston, SC Natural Hair Expo

Hello Beautiful People!

It's me, Eugenia, and I am back with the inside scoop and my honest review of the recent Charleston, SC Natural Hair Expo! I traveled with the click (i.e. Natural Girls Rock lol) down to good ole Charleston, SC all the way from Atlanta, GA.

Now, if you've never been to Charleston before it is B-E-A UTIFUL! It's got this classic old town charm, right on the water so the weather (and the fresh seafood) is the bomb.com. Upon arriving, we checked into our hotel and had dinner at The Wreckfish, a seafood joint in North Charleston with probably the BEST customer service, shrimp, mac n' cheese, and the cutest waiters! :)

Protective Styling: Mini-Twists

We love our natural hair! We color it, trim it up, twist it up, pin it up. If you think about it, we do a lot of man-handling to our tresses! In order to make sure we give our hair a break, we perform some protective styling! If you’re new to natural hair you’re probably wondering: what the heck is protective styling?!

Protective styling is a styling option for transitioners and naturals alike. Anything from wigs, braids (with or without extensions), sew-ins, all the way to the aforementioned MINI-TWISTS!

Shea Moisture Curl Milk Twist Out

If you've been natural for long, or are new to the natural hair lifestyle, you can attest to the Shea Moisture line as being your first go-to in hair care! In this tutorial I used Shea Moisture's Curl Milk to do two strand twists on freshly washed and soaking wet hair.

IN REVIEW: Mario Badescu Drying Lotion (Pimple Cure!)

Like most living and breathing human beings we have been faced with that one thing that binds us all...PIMPLES! Whether they are once in a blue moon or more frequent, like myself, finding a quick and efficient remedy for these little mountains is hard to isolate.

Natural Girls Rock Anniversary Party in Atlanta!

So here it is--my first blog. This is kind of awkward. Just a little bit! So...HIIIIII! Um, my name is Eugenia. I'm a beauty writer, Natural Girls Rock Ambassador, and natural hair lover. I figured the best way to kick off my Eugenia Says blog is to detail the most life-changing experience of my life--and it just happened this past weekend!

You ever have one of those moments like, "this can't be happening to me?" Well, that's how I spent my past Saturday feeling! Well...in the good way. Not the "I started my period in white pants" kind of way--like the good kind of way! :)
