  • Do Black Women Really Hate Their Hair?

    Interesting topic suggestion brought up by my very own brother. We shall revisit the hair debate again. The braiding, straightening and adorning of hair is all to make one feel good about oneself and/or to attract another person. I mean can we keep it real. So, what decision is best when the two goals become…

  • Sheryl Underwood Disses Natural Hair On National TV

    I have focused mainly of nutrition, health and weight loss in the past few weeks here on Talulazoeapple.com. Then I happened upon this video of Sheryl Underwood, co-host on The Talk, making some very disparaging remarks about natural, afro hair. Being someone with natural hair, I was near tears watching her spew such hurtful, self-hating…

  • I Am Not My Hair but I’m Glad It Is There

    lol. Some title, huh? A very benevolent friend offered to clip my ends for me. She is natural like me and hair is always so fly. She straightens, trims and styles my hair beautifully. I notice that my hair has grown quite a bit. Although natural, my hair was drying out and breaking off something…

  • Heat Damaged Hair – The 1 Week Repair Test

    So I really needed my ends clipped BAD and I usually do it myself but I thought, girl treat yourself. So I had someone straighten and clip my ends. Beautiful cut, style – very BAD ENDS results.   The Straightened do. The heat damage. Hair is straight near the roots and will not revert back…

  • Heat Damage – Natural Hair

    Being natural is rewarding and frustrating simultaneously. My curls were not as buoyant as they had previously been so I decided to get my ends trimmed. I went to a hair stylist who shall remain nameless to have her straighten and clip my ends.I opted for heat straightening to get the most precise cut possible. I…

  • I Bought A Wig and Named It Carmen

    I am a natural girl. I AM a natural girl. I AM A NATURAL GIRL. . .but I have a confession to make. On Saturday night, I wore a wig out to an event. I am talking a big, bouncy curly Beyonce-esque wig. I LOVED IT. lol Granted it was a pretty benign event. Not…

  • Natural Hair Is The Stuff That Grows From Your Follicles

    PERIOD. Your hair does not have to cascade down in abundant shiny spirals or coils. It does not have to be in a perfectly coifed 'fro or fade. If you go into a natural hair journey looking to achieve some "look" and not just to embrace a healthy hair regimen, you will fail. You will…

  • Nothing Like A Compliment. . .

    . . .to give you that extra motivation to workout when you don't quite feel like it. The other day at the gas station an older lady told me, "Can I borrow your legs? I just need them for Sunday." I thought that was hilarious. Today a girl at work commented that since she started…

  • Jill Scott on the Tyler Perry Show

    I love Jilly from Philly. She inspires me to be bold in my full figured-ness and my natural hair-ness. I really cannot wait to see this movie.    

  • Another Hair Post – Carol’s Daughter

    I am SO disappointed. I SO wanted to like this product line. You may know the story. A woman made some concoctions in her kitchen for hair, started selling it, made it big. Now she has big-time sponsors, Jada, Mary J, Oprah – so I HAD to try it. I ordered the Hair Milk, Hair…
