Life beyond the braids

Life beyond the braids

By Kamilah with a “K”!

I love what I do but I don’t want to talk about hair all day. Life outside of the salon is waaaay more interesting. It’s a beautiful series of ups, downs, *oops* and of course laughter! Turn the volume up and take a listen as myself and some of my beauty industry friends comb through the good, the bad, the wins and the losses! From conquering fears to pushing through doubt, hopefully you will be inspired, encouraged and entertained!

Blessings on Blessings.

Blessings on Blessings.

Have you ever done a water fast? I did. Flushed my body for 13 days. I truly believe that is why Summer 2019 was the summer of two major blessings. Episode 7 was about the first blessing. This is about the second.

But first, sign this NDA.

But first, sign this NDA.

Have you ever heard the saying “say yes, and figure it out after!” Well that’s exactly what I did 3 years out of beauty school when I signed my first NDA to work with a music industry legend. I had no idea what to ask for or expect, but GOD…

Licensed & lost

Licensed & lost

You ever want something for so long then get it and don’t know what to do next? Well that’s exactly how I felt after getting my Natural Hair Styling license. My hobby was legit, but I was confused. Until my friends told me to level up & that’s exactly what I did…

Part 3: Divine Winks, BC

Part 3: Divine Winks, BC

Signs, warnings and messages are everywhere. The question is are you paying attention? Do you recognize them? You should. In this final Part 3 of the BC (Before Cosmetology) trilogy, I am sharing the things that happened that were clear messages, or what I called divine winks, that indicated I was on the right track even though on paper, it looked like I was losing.

Is this thing on?

Is this thing on?

Here I go again, doing something scared! But if this is the only reminder you get today that you can be scared, be unsure and STILL push through, then so be it! xo Side bar: The saying is “I may look like I know what I’m doing but deep down my socks are sliding off.” Told you this will have some *oops* moments.
