The Creator Of Mother’s Day Was Never A Mother…And Her House Is Haunted!

Anna Jarvis is responsible for getting Mothers Day recognized as a holiday. Her hope was to create a day to honor all mothers by writing them heartfelt letters. On May 8th 1914,President Wilson signed a resolution that made Mother’s Day the legal holiday that we celebrate today. Anna Jarvis felt disheartened when she saw the commercialization that Mother’s Day began to carry. She fought to resend the holiday, which ultimately led to being placed in  a sanitarium, where she died in 1948.

Anna Jarvis never married and had no children. The house her and her family once lived in is now a museum. The people that work at the museum say that it is haunted by members of the Jarvis family. Take a look at this video and see for yourself.anna jarvis

Product Review: Head & Shoulders Moisture Care Collection. I Got To Try Free, Courtesy of BzzAgent!

The folks at BzzAgent sent me the new Head & Shoulders Moisture Care Collection to try and review. In my package, I received Head & Shoulders Co-Wash, 2 in1 moisture care shampoo and conditioner and moisture care scalp soother. At first I was skeptical about using any Head and Shoulders product. Let’s face it, the brand is not known for catering to the African American community. However, after opening the package I noticed that the bottles specifically says “for textured hair”. This peaked my interest. The product is enriched with almond oil and coconut essence.  I gave it a try. I used it on my entire family. I have two boys Brenden and Jermaine (ages 11 & 7) and my daughter Hazel (age 9). My boys keep a low cut, so for them, I used the 2 in1 moisture care shampoo and conditioner as well as moisture care scalp soother. For my daughter and I, we used all three products.

The smell is magnificent!  For  African American ladies, I would not recommend that you use the 2 in1 moisture care shampoo and conditioner weekly. You should use the 2 in1 moisture care shampoo and conditioner every 2 weeks. I recommend using the Head & Shoulders Co-Wash 2 or three times a week. The Head & Shoulders moisture care scalp soother is a product that I use daily for my children (especially my boys). A few sprays a day helps keeps their scalp moisturized which eliminates itching and dry scalp. The smell is incredible. No more scratching.

Head & Shoulders has a winner with their new product line that caters to textured hair. The price is very reasonable (under $4 per product) sold at most major retailers. Its about time Head & Shoulders! Thanks to BzzAgent for letting me try the new Head & Shoulders Moisture Care Collection for free!

Germany

Is Ugly The New Black?

It started with flamboyant Antoine Dodson’s viral news interview that made the phrase “Hide Your Kids, Hide Your Wife” a sort of viral anthem. Then there was Sweet Brown with her ” I’ve Got Bronchitis, Ain’t Nobody Got Time For That” viral news interview. Both, have capitalized off of their new found fame landing tv commercials and appearances and even landing a bit part in a Tyler Perry film.

Enter WelvenDaGreat, Wings and Atown! Their unique look (and teeth) has caused their popularity to skyrocket as they are not afraid to show off in their vine and instagram posts. WelvenDaGreat obviously has some sort of disability (confirmed by a family member in his web series) and has been seen hosting parties and has kicked it with celebrities such as Chris Brown, Blac Chyna and Fat Joe. WelvenDaGreat is most known for his saying “Who Don’t Got No Bitches.” and “Deeze Nuts, Got Heem!”

Wings and his brother Mike are a comedy duo who are taking the insta world by storm with their off brand humor. Wings has some sort of deformity that caused his eyes to be abnormally spaced apart. In one of his most popular viral clips Wings seems to be roasting himself by verifying that he looks like the Sloth from the movie Ice Age, A hammerhead shark and a beetle. Wings also hosts parties.

Atown, best known for his “Good Morning To You, The Birds Are Chirping” song and has over a million instagram followers. He calls himself “Mr. Sexy as S#&t” and according to his posts has no problems getting women. He has been seen on stage with Rich Homie Quan and Rick Ross.

These men are capitalizing off of their looks and enjoying their 15 minutes of fame. I hope that these men practice safe sex. See the hype for yourself.
