Take Down Products

We have a load of samples from this company.  Removal cream samples for braids, hair extensions and locks.  As someone who has been wearing twist for a few years, I didn't realize there was a product like this.  This beauty company states the cream softens hair and also removes bonding glue and fusion from weaves.  This is a product definitely worth trying!

Nyee Moses

Being compared to the likes of Sade and other neosoul and jazz greats, I wonder why the songstress is not a household name yet.  Check out the "Our 2 cents" review courtesy of Sista Savvy and enjoy the singles and full CD's the artist provided.

"Addictive products for curly hair" is the motto of this company.  A company dedicated to maintaining the natural spirals of many women has developed products to clean, style and moisturize.

This writer is wetting our appetite by providing the audio CD "7 Tips for Black Women to Live a Happier Life" which is a based off the upcoming book "Lessons Learned: Loving Yourself As A Black Women ."  Great tips which I am sure will lead to a great book!

 


   
   
   
   

Quick gift Tip: Limited on funds?  This is the perfect solution to craft your own gift basket with these wonderful items. Find/buy a small/medium-size decorative basket and place them in strategically so they can be seen all around the basket.  Use cellophane or tulle and finish off with a beautiful ribbon or bow.  Your gift recipient will love that you took the time make the basket and mentioning that the that the contents are filled with products made, invented or sung by enterprising talented women of color and not cheap dollar store items. It is sure to evoke much appreciation.
