February is American Heart Month, and I’ve partn February is American Heart Month, and I’ve partnered with @MedIQCME and Duke Health to raise awareness about atrial fibrillation (AFib), also known as irregular heartbeat which affects 12 million people.My father was diagnosed with AFib and my family has a history of this condition, so I do my best to learn as much as I can about it.

I’ve learned that when the atrium’s squeezing becomes irregular, blood doesn’t flow as smoothly through the heart and clots can form. Those clots can travel to the brain, disrupting the oxygen supply and causing a stroke. People with AFib are at approximately 5 times greater risk for stroke than those with regular heartbeats. Stroke is a leading cause of death and also of serious, long-term disability. It is essential to get to a hospital quickly if you suspect a stroke in yourself or others.Learn the acronym FAST to recognize the signs of stroke: 

F = Face. Ask the person to smile. Does one side of the face droop?

A = Arms. Ask the person to raise both arms. Does one arm drift downward? 

S = Speech. Ask the person to repeat a simple phrase. Is the speech slurred or strange?

T= Time. If you see any of these signs, call 9-1-1 right away.

New School Year, New Hair ‘Do For the 6 Yr Old


My 6 year old has a lot of hair. This summer, I have been keeping her natural hair curly for the most part. She has tight curls that look nice with a little bit of product on it. But for the new school year, she wanted to jazz it up a little and we decided to get it professionally straightened by a stylist.

No chemicals of course. Just a flat iron and a stylist that knows how to get it straight without too much heat or damage. The result was simply gorgeous. My 6 yr old is going back to school with a new look!

I visited Salon Edge in the heart of Midtown St. Louis near St. Louis University and Grand Center. Our stylist, Sandra Dee, specializes in natural hair and had a knack for working with my 6 yr old’s tender head.

Here is the finished product:

      Thank you Sera! She loves her new more “big girl” hairstyle. Back to school shopping and prep is so much fun for the kids but not very much fun for the parents. LOL.

    Beautiful. Also don’t like exposing kids to chemicals even though the African hair can be really hard to manage.

    HELP! I have a 10 year old and 5 year old and there hair is sooooo thick and long and it hurts to comb it. I get so frustrated with it and end up brushing it with water and putting it in a couple of ponytails. Within the next two days it’s sometimes matted at the roots. There hair is curly and very, very thick. I was thinking of giving my them relaxer but I really don’t want to. Please if there’s any straightening system, please let me know QUICK!

      I would say no to the relaxer because as children, their hair type is still changing and processing it will not be healthy for the hair. I would suggest seeking the knowledge of a licensed who can take a look at your children’s hair and come up with ways to style it while keeping it healthy. Protective styles like 3 strand twists and braids will help keep the hair healthy and manageable and easy to style. I get my daughter’s hair that is naturally curly professionally done once a month at the hair stylist. I am able to keep it up by rolling her hair at night with a bonnet and keeping it up in ponytails. Hopefully that helps you.
