I DID IT 💅🏼✨

After months of feeling like I’d never get there, I can proudly say I’ve officially passed my State Board Nail Tech exam!

I finished my hours back in May 2023, but with my classic procrastination habits, I kept putting off taking the exams. I almost gave up a few times (I'm definitely the queen of leaving things incomplete), but I finally pushed through.

✨Theory, took me 3 tries, but guess what? I PASSED!

✨ Practical, First try, and I nailed it!

This is just the beginning though, I’m not stopping here! 💅🏽💜 Big things ahead, and I’m ready for them! Thank you to everyone who supported me along the way — BIG S/o to my partner for always supporting me 💕

I did it 💔✂️

Sometimes life happens, and your hair tells the story. I’ve always been an advocate for healthy hair care, but somewhere along the way, I stopped showing my natural hair the love it deserved. No routines, no treatments just neglect. So, I did what had to be done: the big chop. It’s bittersweet,

A red Alani Nu Strawberry Sunrise energy drink can is held by an adult hand and a baby's hand, resting on a fluffy white blanket. Text overlays read "DID THEY THINK WE WOULDN'T NOTICE??" and "WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS".

Did they think we wouldn’t notice??

Okay, tell me I’m not crazy… but does the new Alani Nu Strawberry Sunrise taste exactly like the Mimosa? Because I swear, it’s giving the same vibes. Not that I’m complaining because I was loving the Mimosa, so this feels like a major win. But now I need to know… have you tried it yet? Do you think
