From Being Mary Jane to Being Married

Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade are married! The actress and NBA pro said their "I dos" in front of friends and family in Miami at the Chateau Artisan Castle and as expected, there were a few famous faces in the crowd. Wade popped the question to Union this past December and as his Instagram put it: "She said YES!!!" Among the big names was John Legend who serenaded the couple with his hit single "All of Me."  Union wore a romantic Dennis Basso gown and requested that guests wear formal white. Wade wore customized Dsquared2, his personally designed Wedding Collection bow tie from The Tie Bar.

Kimberly Snyder's Jungle-Inspired Smoothie Recipe

Kimberly Snyder, author of the New York Times Best Seller, “The Beauty Detox Foods and The Beauty Detox Solution,” believes that you should “eat your beauty.” She recently just got back from her honeymoon where she learned some new recipes and nutrition secrets from the jungle that she shared on The Queen Latifah Show.
Here is one of her popular recipes known as the Gorilla Shake. The name and recipe was inspired by Snyder’s gorilla trek in the volcanic mountains of northern Rwanda, where she had the opportunity to be close up with the gorillas on foot.

Here are the ingredients:
¼ cup sunflower sprouts
1 cup baby bok choy (use green leaf part)
1 ½ cup papaya, chopped (ripe)

Stay Active!

To experience the most enjoyable life possible, it is important that we stay active. One of the best and most efficient ways of doing this is by running. Many times, however, we avoid running because we don’t want the sweat to interfere with our hair. You don’t have to sacrifice style for fitness! Pull your hair back in a pony tail during exercise to keep salt in your sweat from depositing and drying out your style. After you shower and are dry, let you hair down and allow any moisture to evaporate. Most importantly, wash your hair to remove any build up that you may have obtained during the week!
 

Perfect Vacation Hair

If this winter weather has you in a funk, it might be time to book a vacation. The hot sun, cool breeze and effortless wash and go styles are all just a flight away. Here are a few tropical destinations and hair that will be perfect to wear on your well deserved vacation.
 
1. Barbados

When we think about Barbados we think about fun festivals, the pretty blue Caribbean sea and white sand. This is the perfect place to unwind. Wear something big, beautiful and bold like our BOUNCE Deep Wave hair. It has the perfect curl pattern. You can go to the beach and leave with the same curls you came with. Fluff it out when it dries for that big hair look that we love so much.
 

2.Bali

You can spend your time snorkeling and seeing all of the beautiful sea life or spend your time on land in front of the volcanoes (it's a sight to see). Sea Tahitian Curl will work well in Bali. No need to pack the curling irons and flat irons. Wear this wavy hair throughout your vacation. After snorkeling you'll look like a beautiful mermaid parading out of the sea.
 

3. Maldives

Enjoy a beautiful sunset over the Indian Ocean, have some fun doing water sports or go on an excursion. Whatever you do, wear your Pure Curly hair. The tighter curls are perfect to wear for your water activities during the day and easy to straighten for a late night stroll on the beach and dinner with a few friends.
