Fat and Skinny individuals

I'd like to make it clear that some people might find this article very offensive but i'll go on with it anyway. i am writing this article based on my observation of the obvious jealousy the fatties have on skinny people. Being fat is neither such a bad thing nor a very attractive thing. Most times, being fat leads to low self esteem and self pity but that is where charisma is meant to step in. With a fabulous charisma, even one as ugly as a chimpanzee could appear fine to people. that is; people might not even notice how ugly the individual is. Instead of the fatties working on their personalities and charisma, they spend the whole time looking for a skinny person to criticise! consoling themselves with lame expressions and talks like, (you need enough flesh to look good! or skinny people do not eat enough and do not look healthy!). Then the really ignorant fatties say being fat is a sign of good living. I have seen certain carelessness that leads to the path of being a fatty acid! You see people gain weight gradually, when told to control the pace at which the weight is coming, they say its temporary or that they'l shed it when the time is right! well...situp people! theres no such thing as *when the time is right* if u are too lazy to get your fat ass up and workout when u are just chubby, what gives you the impression that u'd actually be ready to workout when the weight piles up? It is not news that being fat is less attractive, leads to low self esteem or possibly suicide! so the time y'all send composing those lame sayings you use on skinnies, why dont you just go and shed some weight! Not everyone is meant to be skinny but that doesnt permit us to blow out of proportion. working out also doesnt mean you have shed all the weight u'v got.....the main essense is to be fit and look presentable..after all, the chubby people have more tendencies to survive some incidents than the skinnies and vice versa.... The point of this article isnt for every one to be skinny, but for everyone to be fit enough to lift themselves and look good. Then again if you are fat and can't workout, get comfortable with your body and stop torturing yourselves by insulting the ones that look good :p ....

hair maintenance/treatment

It is known that processed african hair result to severe hair breakage or frizzy hair, going through that phase myself; i decided to research on the best hair products, bad ingredients for the hair and natural ways to keep the hair glowing and healthy. Before i go into all that,we ought to know that the blacks hair texture is different from the whites hair and most hair products available are most suited for the whites. The black hair texture is wool-like and rough,at its best when kept natural and not chemically processed. By chemically processed hairs i mean the relaxed and coloured hairs. Natural ingredients are always best for the african hair texture, ingredients such as shea butter, olive oil, hair mayonnaise,eggs and many more. When the hair is kept natural, it has les occurrences of breakage or dryness as it is known that most chemicals in hair product leads to dryness. After my research, i came up with 10 best ways to treat processed hair.
To grow hair:
First of all, keep your hair moisturized. This is as simple as wetting it in the shower, or wetting your hands and running them through your hair. DO NOT buy any moisturizer that has MINERAL OIL or PETROLATUM! care free curl gold and s-curl are popular moisturizers. Do NOT use that Pink lotion!
2)use a wide tooth comb(once a day or less)to avoid hairs breaking.
3)Wash your hair at least once a week with shampoo. I wash mine with JUST conditioner sometimes too.
4)after shampooing, DEEP CONDITION by putting condish on your hair and putting a plastic cap over it and leaving it on for 15-30 minutes
5)massage your scalp daily
6)do not put any oils or "grease" on your scalp. Same goes with hair.
7)Try to relax your hair less. Every 8-10 weeks or longer!
8)You know your hair is breaking because if you look on the ends you will not see a white bulb. If you DO see a withe thing on the end, that is just shed hair. You shed 100 hairs a day, so it's all good. If it IS broken hair, do a protein treatment (use Organic Roots Stimulator mayonaisse or Aphogee 2 minute)
9)Try to put your hair up. Or protect your hair by leaving it in braids. DO NOT LEAVE BRAIDS IN TOO LONG or you will loose your hairline!
10) Its best to apply one or maximum of two treatments on your hair at once as application of multiple treatments also leads to hair breakage!

Hope this article is helpful to all you worried ladie out there!
Ciao!
