8 Hairstyles To Fight Summer Frizz

My hair doesn't do well in the summer. 
The heat causes me to sweat which causes my hair to get ridiculously frizzy! 
Don't get me wrong, I have no problem going natural and rocking my straight Afro.


 But some times, I like to tame to the beast. 

Doing my hair is something that I have been practicing since I was about 12 years old. I literally braid my hair with my eyes closed at this point. Though I have yet to master the art of hair styling completely, I enjoy trying out new things! 

Here are 8 ideas for when the ponytail just won't work:

Loose fish tail brain with a black faux leather bow.




Traditional french braid.
 




Tight curved fishtail side braid with faux leather black bow

 


Another variation of the curved fish tail braid with a light blue ribbon instead of the black bow 
 
 


French braid hybrid with turquoise clippies.
 




Half up half down with a color spotted white bow and pink clippies. 



Bangs twisted and pulled back 




Half up half down with black clippies keeping sides back

4 Everyday Outfit Ideas For Young Moms


Before I had Nico fashion was a big part of my life. I didn't shop everyday, but I had a pretty good collection of versatile pieces that I loved to mix and match! I loved to look good; who doesn't? But during the course of my pregnancy, through the morning sickness, bloating, and changes in my body, I lost sight of my style. 

As a young mother, the changes of motherhood were sudden; one moment I find out I'm pregnant and the next thing I know, I'm blowing up like a balloon, hardly able to recognize myself. 

I was fortunate to return to my normal size a few months after Nico was born, but inside, I had completely changed. I realized that the things I used to wear no longer expressed how I viewed myself; a young mother with large goals who wanted to be taken seriously while still feeling young and beautiful. 

It took me a while to be comfortable in my own skin as the person I became when Nico was born, a Kul Mom
 I can finally proudly say this is my style as a 20 something mommy! 

4 fabulous everyday outfit ideas for young moms:

The Classic T-shirt and Flowy Skirt.

Comfortable white Keds because it's hard to chase a 2 year old in heels!


Jean Jacket, White fitted Cami, & Navy Striped Skirt



Sheer Black Quarter Sleeve, Loose Fitting Black Cami, & Gray Skinny Jeans 

Accessories: Long Tangled Necklace, Sterling silver Ear Cuff
  
Checkered Navy and White Button Down Shirt Dress, Print Fitted Cami, & Black Leggings

I LOVE mixing patterns! It adds an interesting twist to an outfit!
