Last night...
Pit stopped in St. Louis after the Charlotte meetup to kick it with the fam and to attempt to rest my soul. I'm still awaiting that full recovery after coming down with a bug last month, and have started yet another round of antibiotics... third times a charm I suppose. Nothing much else to report... unlike 'The Hangover Part III' aka the Orlando meetup, I didn't miss my flight out the next morning, well I almost did, but we made it and I arrived in STL greeted by Momma's smiling face with red Gatorade and burnt up hot dogs. Before I fly out to New Orleans next week, I plan to score some Peach Vess and a box of pork fried rice... maybe even a bag of Red Hot Riplets... and some Imos... *whispers to self* yeah... Imos.
Check out the view-

Check out the view-
I hadn't washed my hair since the Charlotte meetup and that mess was dry, angry and tangled. Out of sheer laziness, I raked some Ouidad Hydrafusion through my damp hair (on top of a little Redken Smooth Down Butter Treat), in sections... maybe 10, and allowed to air dry.
Forgot to add that I added a bit of UltraSheen grease to my ends once dry.

Apparently Boogie feels the need to be a bit more 'revolutionary' than Mommy #BabyPowerFist

It's 110 degrees in St. Louis... we probably could've just set these mugs outside for a few minutes and got the same result.

Look at my Boogie she is such a big gurl now! Please get some rest!
Get some rest Nikki! Your hair looks great!
All those anitbotics will result in a yeast infection (oh the joys of being a woman) lol...Those hot dogs look good!
Beautiful curls and I love the three textures, my hair is the same way only opposite, loose in the back and coily in the front. Gia is getting so big! Get some rest!
thank you ladies! Resting up, promise... or trying at least. @ Bobby, lol! Yes! Story of my damn life.
I love your wash and goes, you should wear them all the time!
Gia is so adorable and that smile!
Slow it down Nikki and get some rest. You will be no good to yourself, your fam or us if you are down and out. Rest up and dont hesitate to cancel some gigs if thats what it takes. Hope your moms loving nurses you back to health.
How much of each product did you use?
Those hot dogs look good! Your making me hungry!
Hot dogs & sausages are good grilled but when you burn them that's when the real flavor kicks in. I don't see any other way to eat them, lol. Hope you feel better soon.

@ Curly Nikki. Just as an FYI if you want to export fried rice properly you get it, let it cool down from like 2 hrs and then freeze it for safe travel. I just got back from home wit 2 boxes of special fried rice exported to Cali. Locve the site. A.J.
14 weeks in wwwooo hooo
everytime my uncle or big sis come back to st.louis, they get chinese (fried rice/st.paul) red hot riplets, imos, and white castle lol. stl staples :)
Wish u would host a mini meetup in Stl...very informal. =)
Fight the power, Boog :)
Nik, Rest and family love (and perhaps a few burnt hot dogs) does a body and soul good! Lay low, my friend!
Hair twins I do that too when I am lazy I did that today lol! But tangle like a mug. Burnt hotdogs my mom did that on fathers day but I still ate one she burnt the chicken too haha it was all good, it did not kill me. Your daughter is cute hope one day when I have children I have at least one daughter because I grew up with four brothers I am the second child.

Feel better soon Nik. Eat some yogurt or get some probiotics to ward off the yeast infections from the antibiotics. Fight the power Boog!!! Nothin' like some home food to do a body good. :)
I love your hair. You are a true inspiration. Seeking all kinds of encouragement to continue my 4c journey. I'm in STL too and you are right..the hot dogs would have turned out the same in this heat.
OMG! I've lived in CA now for 15 years after having been raised in STL most of my life. All your favs are my favs, plus a St. Paul, Baby! Red Hot Riplets and Imo's forever!
Boogie is ADORABLE! Get well soon!
Right on, little sister!/J. J. Nelson
Awwwwww, feel better soon Nik!! Moms will take care of you, I'm sure!! And Boog is a mess!! She is par-TAYing!! LOL! My hair looks the same crazy way Nik!! The front and back look like two different heads of hair! I did a post on it one day that I called Faking the Funk, because I was all feeling my hair from the front, then I turned and discovered the back was doing it's own dang thing!!

lol.
It will be 103 in SC today..slightly milder than 110. rest up and stay out the heat! I can't decide if boogie looks like you or your husband. either way, shes a doll.
Gotta love the plethora of textures!!! BTW: The only way to eat a hotdog if you gone eat one!!! I don't want no light-skinned hotdog!
MMMmmmmm Imos, you make me miss home! People just don't understand the wonderfulness that is STL style pizza! Feel better soon!
I'm glad to know I am not the only one with matted hair in the morning
Your morning hair is funny! Looking good!
Its just as hot here! OMG and the humidity is sickening :(
Did you have to rewet?
YES!!! Please do a meetup or SOMETHING in St. Louis! I am begging you :)
Love your hair, as always. Love Boogie's fight the power fist. :) I hope you get well soon. By the way, I guess I'm the only one who has never heard of these STL staples. ;) lol ~KF519
I have that same bonnet I wore it last night lol. I usually pineapple if I am tired/lazy I just put it on and I wake up look like marge simpson too. I use my Jane Carter revitalizing leave in as a curl refresher to get my hair down sometimes and fluff as well until I get my desired look.
Megan Montgomery
Nikki-regardless....your hair is still OFF THE CHAIN gorgeous!
Gia is just precious....power to the people!
Okay, now I want some burnt hotdogs and maybe Imo's later...Uhm...and that PIE looks pretty tasty as well.
HOPE YOU FEEL BETTER SOON
Gia looks just like you!
Eat yougart it helps me when I'm on antibiotics!
Like Anon 2:01pm said, yogurt that has live cultures in it will replace the good bacteria in your body that the antibiotics are taking out. You should try So Delicious Culture Coconut Milk Yogurt. Very good. Or Whole Soy.
Love your hair, Nikki. Get some rest. Me and my daughters LOVE burnt hotdogs! Everytime hubby grills we make sure to tell him to "burn" some hotdogs for us - LOL!
Pamela
Beautiful wash and go results, I love that you use grease! I do too and now I dint feel as bad!
Your hair is beautiful...btw-I agree with you on the hot dogs. If they aint burnt I can't eat them. Hope you feel better.
OMG - so homesick! I tell you no lie - no fried rice tastes like STL Fried rice. I enlisted in the US Navy at age 19, and have been around the country and the taste of STL Fried Rice still whispers to me 30 years later...
I have found style close to it!
~Thetruthisoutthere
Cute!
I know that's right. I like my hotdogs burned!
I am from East St. and you are so right about the fried rice, I make sure I get that and a snoot sandwich. Lol
I used to live in East St. now in Texas.
Adorable pictures of your Boogie!
Lawd Nikk, Boogie is only "this big" *holds up pointer finger and thumb to measure* and she has the adorable audacity to have the black power fist,(smile) TOO CUTE!! Now about them hotdogs, girrlll, get that fork sittin' over there on the edge and grub those good lookin' hotdogs. I'm old school and that's the only way I like to eat mine(lil burnt on the outside and on a fork)YUMMM.

Your daughter is gorgeous!
Cute pics!
Hi,
Recently I came across some great articles on your site. The other day, I was discussing (http://www.curlynikki.com/2012/06/hot-town-summer-in-city.html)with my colleagues and they suggested I submit an article of my own. Your site is just perfect for what I have written! Would it be ok to submit the article? It is free of charge, of course!
Let me know what you think
