Not 100% Vegan Curly Hair Companies, but Vegan Options

-
It’s been a lot sorting through what feels like the gazillions of natural hair products out there. Studies have shown that actually have less options increases happiness! Too many options is just...well...too much! So researching these products has become a hobby of mine.

The world of hair products is not our oyster though because I am limiting products I use on my son’s mixed hair to:

1) specifically for curly/mixed hair
2) free of parables, sulfate, other harmful stuff that I’m learning about
3) vegan

My last post was on 100% companies that are vegan and fit the criteria of 1 and 2 above where I don’t have to research ingredients, read labels, and dig to see if the products are vegan. These options below though are the product of lots of digging around. I really hope this helps someone because I didn’t find all of this cohesively synchronized on another blog, website, etc. Instead, I’ve synchronized a list of everything I could conclude was 100% vegan. This way, I don’t miss out on a product that could really work with my son’s hair just because the entire company is not vegan!

This specific line of products by Taliah Waajid is vegan.

My Son is Walking!

-
Jairus started walking yesterday, on the first day of February, 2019. My husband asked if we can go to The Detroit Historical Museum, and I said yes! It was the first time I held Jairus’s hand and let him “walk” down the stairs out to the car. He was giggling! Then when he saw the snow, he said “WOOOW.” It’s his way of asking sometimes. At the museum, me and his daddy held his hands (the first time we’ve ever done that ❤️), and walked around the museum. When Daddy went exploring things on his own, me and Jairus walked around. This was the longest stretch I ever held his hand and let him walk! I think the muscle memory of his feet walking and the growing familiarity of life higher up from the ground clicked for him. I could feel it... like this exercise and length of time walking would really do something, and it did! Jairus grew more confident and started walking that day! Now he is officially a toddler- toddling around. Walking and falling. Rising and walking. Falling again. It’s ad...

Still Breastfeeding and Pumping at 14 Months Postpartum!

-
Breastmilk is magic. I am so forever grateful to work at a school that still supports me with pumping- 14 months after Jairus’s birth. I know so many women can’t claim that for their work situations, and it’s an injustice to their personal health and their baby’s optimal health. I went back to work when Jairus was 14 weeks old. Julia made personal sacrifices as my co-teacher that school-year to allow me to pump 3-4 times a day- every day- and my amazing boss Emily continues to support my desire to this day to pump milk (even though I am past the one year limit of legal protection as a breastfeeding mom). She oftentimes forfeits the comfort of her own office to meet me where I pump. This school year, Carmen continues to support me pumping 2-3 times a day... going out of her way to make sure her after-school clubs are temporarily rerouted from our room until I’m done (and she’s handled some awkward situations when people walked in on me pumping, such a bold and kind woman)! Our second ...

Jairus’s First Time in the Snow! ❄️

Greetings! Here in Detroit, we’re enjoying our second day off in a row! Yesterday we got around 6 inches, and today was called off due to cold temperatures. I’m almost 100% certain tomorrow will be called off too! Right now the high for tomorrow says -3 and the low is -15. That’s whats called a polar vortex! If you throw some water out of your bottle up in the air, it will freeze on its way down. That cold!  I’ve been holding off on letting Jairus chill (pun intended) in the snow because though he has snow suits, he didn’t have waterproof snow boots. Thanks to a friend letting me borrow her son’s that he grew out of, now Jairus can frolic in the snow. I wanted to wait until he was properly dressed but also until he could walk so he could roam as he pleased, but since he’s been seeing so much snow, he’s been getting curious. When I pulled him out of the car today, he was grunting like a caveman, signaling he wants something. He was pointing at the ground to the snow and was dr...
