Hair Scene: Dreadlocks
We are absolutely in love with this hairstyle! We love the silky texture of the locks and how it was styled with some up and some down. The coiling on top as well as the nicely laid baby hairs make this hairstyle modern and youthful. As more and more women go natural it is always great to get inspired to try out new looks. This shows that dreadlocks can be quite a versatile hair look and can be changed up according to vibe or style.

New Season, New Beauty Routine
Beauty Quickie: It is very wise to change up the beauty products you use as the seasons change. This is because your skin requires and has different needs during various parts of the year. Winter tends to be drier so your products should have a more moisturizing effect. Moreover, during summer which is approaching rapidly, use products containing lots of SPF to protect skin. Trust us, it is a complete myth that black skin does not need to worry about sun exposure.
Beware of the Beauty Label!
Beauty Quickie: Sorry to burst any beauty bubbles but those labels on those products you love may not do as advertised. It is a sad reality, but there are some beauty labels that display false information. Protect yourself by relying on the old adage, “If it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.” Lookout for products that promise all-day protection or results instantaneously.
2015 Summer Fashion: White Couture
Amato’s Spring/Summer 2015 line
A fashion classic that never seems to go out of style is white couture. It’s clean, modern and when done correctly can be quite enchanting. White is just not for the Big Day aka weddings and do not believe in the myth that it can be worn only during a certain part of the year. White is a more refined tint but its subtlety can be enhanced through elaborate and intricate design. Feathers, prints, shimmer and sheer cut-outs all can add a more multifaceted angle to this shade without cheapening the overall effect. So then, if you are looking to change things up a bit with your wardrobe consider adding a few pieces in the shade of white.
