A literal mumble jumble

.Reading time 3 minutes.

I probably started writing a post and then ran out of things to say or got distracted.

A hair regimen for him

.Reading time 4 minutes.

I am one of those people who believe that everyone needs to take care of themselves. Apart from diet and environmental factors, I think our daily habits and products we expose ourselves to plays a huge role in our lifestyle challenges in later years of our lives… Thus, I cannot fully over emphasize the need to be aware of each and every aspect of our lives no matter how tiny the detail. I often get remarks from guys who see my blog and are like, “what does hair have to do with us?” In this post we talk about how guys can take care of their hair as well. You can already guess that I already and still am encouraging B to really take care of himself as well.

Coming up with a regimen

.Reading time 4 minutes.

Hey lovelies,

I shared with you my hair regimen a while back and I’m thinking the next question is how do you then personalize your hair journey and regimen? When I started out on this journey the biggest favour I did for myself was to keep my eyes open and of course my brain. I read all that I could read and sifted through loads of information.
