Kura I felt your pain. I was blessed around 25yrs ago to travel on a medical mission to Peru for 2wks. So I decided to get my hair braided for the first time. It took forever and I literally left from getting my hair done to straight to the airport. The pain was unbelievable. Standing in the shower after arrival made the aim worst because of the additional weight from absorbing water. The women there was so warm and inviting. I had no idea that they also wore braids. I don’t know what serum they used on my head but I survived the rest of my stay because I wanted them to remove them. Sitting on dirt grounds in the mountains was the most memorable time of interacting with the people. I’ll never forget the love from the ladies. Sorry this text is so long but watching you today brought back beautiful and sad memories I wish I could share.

Wow what a life you've lead! Thats an amazing story about finding connection amoungt cultures as well as relating to women from another part of the world! ( I love when us women connect.) I don't long for that pain, but I do long for stories like this. It shows that you aren't just living , you are experinceing life! Please don't apologize for the long text. This was a beautiful story thank you.❤️

Shukura, to me you'll always be a fabulous lady, no matter what your hair or nails look like. It's in your attitude, in the way you talk, your interest in art and learning. Just the other day I saw a hairdresser (Belgian compatriot of mine) comment on a US courtcase about a woman whose hair was braided so tightly she actually got a huge bald patch! It's not worth it. On another note, I always enjoy your beautiful images of New York, and I always look forward to your next vlog. And this week's episode didn't disappoint at all.

Hi Muriel! Thank you for your kind words.You so often make my day! I could not imagine having a bald patch.😩 I agree it's not worth it! I can only imagine how that person is feeling. How horrible!

Thank you so much for the small tour of the Harlem Renaissance exhibit at the MET, n ot from NYC but hopefully I’ll get to see it, maybe it will tour. I love learning history thru art, architecture and homes/home tours. You can learn so much about what was going on in the world, what people felt and valued and society deemed important thru what they painted, collected and how they lived.
@simplykura
@simplykura 3 месяца назад
I'm hoping it will tour as well. So many people need to see it! I learned so much and was truly in awe. Architecture is another topic that I want to learn about. I'm learning that art can transport you to anthor world and truly make you think about life differently. It makes me consider what other people vaule ,cherish, and how they look at the world. Art , like you said , helps me see what people deem inportant. It's like reading in so many ways. The right book can transport you in time and so can art! It's facinating! I have so much to learn!

Like most of us I’ve also been getting my hair braided since I was a girl. One year ago I tried a new braided, got corn rows and had to take them down the next day. The pain was too much for my head on the pillow. I’ve never cried over hair but I did that night. I so felt your feelings and experience 😢 On a lighter note I was also the little girl in the white rabbit coat! Thanks for making me smile 😊

Gurl I know your pain! The last time I got my hair braided in Harlem I swear I had a face lift. I gave it 3 days and just couldn’t take it anymore, they had to come out. This was about 30 years ago and I remember the pain clearly. I’m going to the MET next weekend to check out the exhibit. Happy Birthday🎉🎉. I loved your video.

Happy birthday!!! If you hadn’t told me I’d just assumed you wanted to wear a scarf! You always look fabulous and we would never judge. Video was great! I enjoyed the MET. Something similar happened to me. I was very vocal about tightness of a weave so she made adjustments. But something about the last track she laid down its like she pulled it all in unison so tight! It was very expensive and gorgeous and I went back to get some thread snipped before heading out of town for a wedding. But when I got back I had it uninstalled. The new stylist kept asking if I was sure because it looked GOODT but hurt so bad despite the oil ands snipped threads. I unfortunately experienced hair lost and never wore a weave again.
@simplykura
@simplykura 3 месяца назад
Thank you for your kind words❤️❤️ I was thinking about a weave for the fall but Now I’m fearful of everything lol! I’m so sorry that happened to you. Especially because it was expensive! I know you were mad! I know I was!

Honey I too have felt that pain. I know what you mean you mean about the Tylenol, water and steam trying to help. You tried all the tricks I would have tried. Sorry you had to take them out. That said, if you slip those scarf tails to just one side and add a nice red or orange lip you would look fabulous with your sunglasses. Don’t knock the scarf and sunnies look. Women have worn the look decade after decade for a reason. It’s classic and elegant looking. ❤
@simplykura
@simplykura 3 месяца назад
You have a point about the scarf! I didn't wear the red lip ( I shold have ) But I did get a few compilments when I was out! The girls said that it was super cute and now I have to reuvaluate.😂 I was absouluty wrong.🤷🏾‍♀️ I did have on a pair of oversized balck glasses though!

Hi Kura, I absolutely love your videos - they really feel like I'm watching a video fashion magazine, however have you thought about breaking each video up into 3 separate videos? I just feel like it could be easier for viewers to watch each section separately especially when it isn’t convenient to watch the whole video in one sitting.
@simplykura
@simplykura 3 месяца назад
Hey hey, thank you for taking the time to watch. ☺️ I appreciate you!❤️ I actually started doing segmented videos because it holds people attention longer according to my youtube analytics. Our attention spans are much shorter than they used to be because of IG and Tik Tok etc.. So as soon as a viewer gets bored of one topic they can move on to the next .(Thats why I have time stamps in the description box) similar to how a fashion magazine or show has different topics in one magazine or show. I completely understand where you are coming from though! I have even contemplated doing a second video a week with one topic .So I get it! ☺️❤️ It would actually make my life easier lol!

First, you are disappearing on us! You look so great. Second, you looked great with the corn rows. You have the face that could get away with anything. But I can't imagine the pain. How do they get them that tiny!!?!?! How do they get them out!? Holy cow. I get a headache when my pony tail is too tight. Third, the Harlem art was incredible.

Then imagine sleeping with them!😳 it was a terrible pain! 🤦🏾‍♀️ I wish I knew how they get the braids so small.😂 it takes a lot of skill and practice I assume. However, getting them out is just a matter of unbraiding them as you would with any big braid. Some folks use a comb to get in between each strand to help loosen the braid and it takes forever!😂 I did see the Green Book! What a great movie! Have a wonderful week friend!❤️
