I absolutely love Oprah but seeing Solange and Chris Rock talk about hair on the show earlier this week was great. Solange talked about her new hair do (which made so much noise everywhere when she first chopped off all her hair) Solange says:
“Realistically I was spending about 40,000 dollars to 50,000 dollars a year and probably half of my life, I grew up in a hair salon, my mom owned a hair salon,” the Sun quoted her as saying.
“There was always this feeling of always wanting to be in the salon once or twice a week and I got a perm pretty early - I was four,” she said.
When she chopped off her locks earlier this year, she wrote on her Twitter page the reason for it.
“I just wanted to be free of the bondage that black women sometimes put themselves in with their hair,” she explained.
“This phase in my life I want to spend the time the energy and the money on something else and not in the hair salon,” she added.

Finally, people there you have it, I wish for once people would stop putting so much emphasize on hair and what is good hair. Hair is just that hair. If you are more concerned about the grain of hair someone has rather than whats on their inside, that says a lot about you.

Solange And Beyonce in Japan
I'm only posting this because I absolutely LOVE Solange's hair. (YES, for natural & short hair bad chicas!) And I think both Solange and Beyonce look extremely fabulous at the Samantha Thavasa fashion promo in Japan.
Check out Solange's shoes....
Open toed sandal silhouette on one side and a closed shoe on the other side. Two-tone suede and leather upper. I think they are HOT... They are apart of Moschino Cheap and Chic line for $850
Worth it or no?

Short Hair Girls Get NO Love
Long hair-- don't care is OUT THE DOOR. Women everywhere are cutting their hair off and getting styles that resemble celebrities such as Rihanna, Chrisette Michelle, Cassie, etc.. It is amazing how after all this time a woman is still defined by her hair. How good of a texture her hair is. How long it is. The ideal traditional image of a women in the media consists of long hair, however time has changed. So when is this stipulation ever going to go away?
Thursday, images circulated all of the web of Solange's new short do. Many people had a lot to say about it especially the Hollywood world, rappers Soulja Boy Tell Em and Bow Wow thought it was ridiculous that female celebrities were chopping off all their hair and adopting the boyish cut. (Referring to Lala, Cassie, Amber Rose, who previously have had the boyish cut) My personal opinion, who cares!! And why is this making news? It's making news because people are so afraid of anything different, abnormal, and instead of embracing this new trend they criticize and judge harshly. And quite frankly, being creative and different should be the new "in." So, to Solange and any other bad ass chick rocking a short do...go ahead and continue to be different!
Look people it takes a BAD BITCH to rock a short hair 'do. Just look at me :-)

Dorion from College Hill's Twitter Gets Hacked
Apparently, Dorion from BET's College Hill's Twitter account has gotten hacked into apparently he pissed someone off and the Hacker released nude pictures of Dorion with this statement: “Dorion slept wit my nigga!!!!!!! now he pays!!!!!!!!! lolol,” and “tall dont understand Dorian killed a friend of mine." (Hacker apparently tried to reference that Dorian may have infected a friend of his.) On top of that the Hacker is claiming to have personal information to celebs including Solange Knowles' home address, Necole Bitchie,etc...
Listen in to what Dorion has to say
It's real sad that someone went this far. Negativity is so overrated. Folks be positive. The best revenge is killing your enemy with kindness....All of that back and forth retaliation stuff is so urgh BLAH.
What are your comments?
