 *drum roll*

Kovert Kotten Towel Giveaway!

Giveaways GALORE have been going on lately; y'all are some spoiled blog readers and I love it! I was contacted by the winner of my latest giveaway Kay, aka LoveNWright, to host ANOTHER giveaway for an item that I AM IN LOVE with just from reading the description! The item being given to one lucky read is Kay's Kovert Kotton Towel, you curly girls are going to love this! Read the description and entry rules below. GOOD LUCK!  



 
I'd like to introduce to you, the Konvert Kotton Towel. When using a terrycloth towel the hair can be easily damaged due to the cut loop weaving process. The Konvert Kotton Towel is made of 100% knitted cotton and is smooth to the touch. By using this "towel" in place of a terry cloth towel, it will help to reduce frizziness, dry the hair naturally and with consistent use can diminish split ends and fairy knots.

Made of recycled t-shirts and cotton fabric prints, KKTowels are extremely lightweight and fashionable. KKTowels can be used to blot the hair dry or wrapped around the hair** at your convenience. Carry this towel with you to the pool and beach or use right out of the shower for great results!

♥ Konvert Kotton towels range in size from 12"x36" to 15"x36". **Larger sizes available upon request. Message me for details.

♥The adorable cotton print on one side is paired with 100% cotton cloth on the other.

♥ All fabrics have been prewashed to prevent shrinkage.

♥ Handmade and topstiched for added durability

♥Machine wash cold and tumble dry low or air dry.

♥ Go Green Product: I've used recycled T-shirts, therefore no two towels will be alike!!

I have been creating jewelry for a few years now and I just recently began selling some of my pieces online. I initially picked-up jewelry design from my mom, who has been creating jewelry for about fifteen years and who I now design a lot of pieces with. We are always in collaboration and I enjoy that very much. If I had to describe my work I would have to say that it is a manifestation of a gift, blessing, and an honor coupled with faith (which I am always working to increase). With that said, I strive to create jewelry that is meant to adorn the soul and to encourage self-love and acceptance. I believe that we should all have reverence for our individuality and uniqueness and the core things that make us who we are, be it cultural or spiritual. We are all innately special and we need to celebrate that fact as well as respecting the right for others to be who they are. I like offering handmade one of kind pieces.  The majority of my pieces are hand drawn, hand cut and hand textured; I feel that it allows me to actually infuse my work with good energy and put my handprint on the pieces. I like unique items that are not perfect but make the perfect pair or piece.  I limit the ready made findings and massed produced items that I incorporate in my work so that my pieces can maintain their own individuality.  I also love rich and vibrant colors and unexpected color combinations and textures which I try to incorporate into my pieces. The result is goddess jewelry that is one of a kind which symbolizes individuality; along with being boho tribal chic with an afrocentric flair and of course…naturally glamorous.
Thank you Alex and your wonderful readers for allowing me to share!

1,000k Twitter Follower Challenge



Ok so, many of y'all know that I deleted my old Twitter page and started a new one. New account, same name (@AisforAlex). I had so many natural hair ladies following me and I know many are like "where the heck did Alex go...?" I am still around and still tweeting. I decided that this new page will be a little less personal and more for networking, blog related stuff, #naturalhair talk and positive uplifting tweets. I may throw in my occasional "make you laugh, obnoxious" tweet but there won't be many of those. LOL, I know a lot of you used to laugh at how silly I could be on Twitter but some of my followers may get offended by my humor SO I have decided to sensor what I say a tad bit  more.

Anywho, I have decided to muster up a 1,000k follower challenge. My old page had over 1,000 followers and I really did appreciate the fact that most of them were my natural hair family! It meant a lot that y'all tuned in and chatted with me about hair and other fun stuff. SOOOOO, to show my appreciation I am going to host a FAB giveaway that I am sure you all will LOVE. Once I reach the 1,000 follower mark on my new page TWO LUCKY #naturalhair followers will be given gift baskets filled with my top selling Safi Products AND my favorite things like, nail polish, perfume, make up, hair accessories, ect. I want this basket to be a fun and exciting thing for you all. The details on the give-away are below.

To Win the baskets:

*You MUST be a follower
*You must tweet me (@AisforALEX) and say "I love my GOOD HEALTHY hair. #naturalhair"

*Each time you tweet that to me I will "favorite it" and make note of your entries.
(ONLY one per day.)

*If you choose not to tweet the phrase it's perfectly OK but I wanted to see who my new followers are so I figured that'll be a good way to do it.

*One follower will be chosen off of their entries, the other will be picked randomly; for those of you who prefer not to tweet the phrase.
* I will follow my #naturalhair ladies back if you want me too! Just tell me.
:)

Have fun and good luck!
The challenge will be over whenever I reach my 1,000k mark.
Thank you for ALL THE LOVE AND SUPPORT!
I truly do appreciate you all.

xoxo,
Alex

Meet Eliseba: The winner of the giveaway


Winner: Eliseba
Winning Word: Emancipation
Explanation:  I chose the word 'emancipation' because my natural hair has given me so much freedom. My curls have emancipated me from the feeling that I am only beautiful with straight hair. My curls have emancipated me from unhealthy, heat-damaged hair. My curls have emancipated me from tedious & stressful hair straightening sessions. I've been natural for a while, but I have only recently started embracing my hair in it's curly state and since then I have felt more me and more free than ever in my life, so emancipation seemed like the perfect word.

I thought it would be fun to share this post with you all!
Enjoy!



Winner of the "Natural Hair WORD" Contest

NEW Shea Butter Curl Creme, which I love!

1. In the comment box enter ONE word describing WHY you decided to go natural OR that describes your hair.
2. You must be a blog follower.
