Hi ladies, 
Here's wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!! If you follow me on Instagram you'd have seen my little announcement...God finally sent me MY GIRL ladies!!

From the minute I found out I was pregnant, I was a nervous wreck!! Was I going to have another boy again? This pregnancy though not unplanned was not really planned(in my head) as I had decided that we were going to wait it out a while so I MAKE SURE I DO ALL IT TOOK scientifically, using old wives tales, I mean anything suggest able to have a baby girl then I found out!! My first trimester I spent waiting, wondering, hoping this baby was a girl...I even did the ring over belly test and it spinned round my belly  which meant the baby was a girl and I excitedly showed my hubs who was as hopeful as I was mostly for my sake and his sanity...heehee!!


The obsession was real ladies but what God proved to me with this pregnancy was that HE DIDN'T NEED MY HELP and He does things at HIS TIME!! Simple!! All my obsessing and hopefulness would amount to nothing if he chose otherwise so I decided to thank Him in advance and allow HIS will to be done! I focused on just having a healthy baby...time came to find out the sex of my baby and laying there in the ultrasound room, the lady confidently said...it's a GIRL!! I said please confirm, she goes I'm gazillion times sure this is a girl! I was ecstatic but still very cautious...while I like to share bits and pieces of my life, I like to guard my testimonies till it's time for them to manifest!!


Now she is here, born on the 22nd of Dec, just few days shy of Christmas Day and 10 days after her eldest brother was born and I'm just filled with thanks giving and gratitude to God for this gift!! I wish for all you my dear readers and well wishes that God will grant you all your heart desires and give you your own special gifts and testimonies at HIS time in His own magnificent way!! 

Before I sign out, I need to share with you guys just one more thing.....HER HAIR!! 



My boys had curly hair when they were born and typical boy hairlines but this precious little girl God has blessed me with has a full hair line and the straightest blackest silkiest baby hair we have seen in my family for a while,I had to ask my mum if my hair was like this and she can't remember(rolls eyes lol) but you ladies bet that I have started to nurture it, I'm using the Savvy Chic whipped Shea butter on it and I bought this-

It's a baby cot anti roll head cushion that prevents babies from having a flat head and that demarcation line that usually occurs...mums with baby girls and lush hair please now, share with me any tips you have...of course I will keep researching and make sure that my Naija Baby's Hair Grows!! 

Once again have a very Merry Christmas and stay blessed!!

Hiya,
How's everyone doing? Hope well! In my last post, I shared that I was going to get some crotchet braids done...well I had been eyeing this newly revived box braid bob hairstyle;

PHOTO CREDITS- INSTAGRAM/GOOGLE SEARCH

And you and I know there was no way I was going to cut my hair in a bob for this hairstyle, so I decided to try the next best thing- CROTCHET BRAIDS!

I decided to use some blonde in front to give the hair style that extra oomph!!






The installation was relatively pain free, there were a few naughty strands that were too thick to form a secure knot so we left those out and for those trying to DIY, make sure the hole at the start of the braid is big enough for the braid to pass through and you should be fine.



I had these in for just a little over a week and got bored/hot (perks of having a salon, free hair!!), to maintain it...all I did was spritz my scalp nightly and oil my edges so the extensions didn't dry the hair out. In terms of longevity I think this hairstyle has the tendency to get rough early especially if like I did, the tips are burnt...what I would do differently next time is not burn the tips but have them securely tied and the ends cut blunt like I've seen others do because I found that the burnt ends were sticking together and pulling the hair apart from the strands causing them not to look neat, to remedy this I just simply trimmed the braids that had hair sticking out and the great part was I trimmed with no fear since my hair was not in any of the braids.

Took the braids out some nights ago and something very interesting happened but that's a post for another day, let's move on to what's in store at SAVVY & CHIC HAIR BEAUTY HUB from tomorrow Black Friday till Christmas Eve!!

Hiya,
How's everyone doing? Hope well!! I'd like to share my latest project with you all- It's with my beloved Shea Butter and I have called them- SHEA BUTTER CUPS!! And I am giving 2 away!!!




Growing up, the reason why I hated Shea butter- 'Ori'; was the smell!!! My mum tried to make me use it to massage my legs so I would not have 'Salee' or 'Yams'- (Strong legs) but I never used it!! Thankfully I don't have 'YAMS'!!.
With the advent of my healthy hair care journey, I quickly learnt that Shea Butter is a great moisturizer and sealant not just for the hair but for the skin too...last year when we opened the hub I decided to make a Shea Butter Station part of the store, offering ladies shea butter like Ice cream with different scents like Chocolate, Peppermint/ Tea Tree oil and Fruity.

It's  been a hit as its an in expensive way to try shea butter whipped to perfection :), this year I decided to take things up a notch by creating these butter cups that look and smell like Icecream or cupcakes;

LAVENDER BUTTER CUP!!

LEMON BUTTER CUP

HONEYSUCKLE BUTTER CUP- Contains pure honey!!

These SMELL DIVINE (Personal favorite is the lemon butter cup) and are whipped with different essential/carrier oils, fragrance oils,  humectants like glycerin and honey...they are colored with a colorant that is safe for the skin and hair and piped nicely into these containers...

One cup costs N800 only and a box of 3 this season with Valentine themed wrapping is N2500- To Order please visit www.hairbeautyhub.com or call 08090613325...delivery and pick up options available(only in lagos)!!

I have thoroughly enjoyed this project and will be giving out 2( 1 each), if you'd like to be one of the 2 ladies, you need to live in Lagos(Sorry to Non- Lagosians, still figuring out a way to transport it to long distances) and you will be willing to come pick it up yourself at 30 Norman Williams st, Ikoyi Lagos...if that sounds good to you then hit me up- daboju@yahoo.com- Subject- I want a butter cup. The first 2 mails I receive that qualify are my winners...

Thanks for the love all these years, Happy Valentine's day in advance!!
