So let’s talk about New Years hair. Dramatic. Sparkly. Big. Fun. are all words that come to mind when I think about what I’d like to do with my hair.

The style got major attention when Cassie boldly debuted it in 2009, but after seeing it on Natural Hair guru Chime “Hair Crush” Edwards (http://www.youtube.com/user/HairCrush) I knew I had to find a way to replicate this style with my locs.

…especially considering I’m not a professional stylist. Most recently it was a friend’s blonde wig who is in a David Bowie cover band and wanted something more “edgy” for the stage (what up Lloyd!?).
