Tolani AV Eweje

🎉So many new faces here! Let’s do some introductions🤗 If you have been following me for a while I would love to know how you found me and why you stayed. New folks please introduce yourself, we actually talk back to each other over here in the comments! Also, yall peeped the new profile pic??? Swipe to the last photo to see it! 5 tidbits about me: Born in NY but moved around every 2-3 years growing up. My childhood was split between Akwa-Ibom, Nigeria & Houston TX but I also spent a few years in New Orleans. I would describe myself as a quiet extrovert, I love being around people, but I am more of a listener… although I have my moments where I can’t shut up. Generally tho, my vibe is calm & laid back. My husband and I are “college sweethearts” and we have 2 amazing girls..and no we arent having more kids or going to “try for a boy” lol cause I know yall like to ask…. I am probably the definition of a multi-hyphenate , I have SO MANY INTEREST , you may get beauty one day, how to invest wisely another day, how I cook Jollof rice the next, my latest interior design project or my afrobeats & r&b playlist another day etc. I have been this way since forever and will probably always be. My background is in engineering(studied chemical engineering & worked as a petroleum engineer for almost 9 years), but I have been creating content consistently since 2011 (drop a heart if you have been rocking with me since my YT days). Dropping 3 more in the comments 😘.👇🏾 Happy New Month(My favorite month!!)

😆😆I finally achieved my best DIY silk press ever all thanks to AI! I use AI everyday in my work life, and after watching countless tutorials and many failed attempts, I thought why not ask AI to help. Here was my prompt: “Act as an experienced 4C hair stylist and give me a detailed guide (step by step) to achieving a fail proof silk press on 4C hair that isn’t heat trained. I have the following products, suggest how to use them in the guide: @kenraprofessional clarifying shampoo, @olaplex number 5, @amika hydro rush deep conditioner, @pattern steamer, acv rinse, @cecred moisturizing shampoo @innersenseorganicbeauty detox hair mask, @amika anti humidity spray, @amika blockade heat defense, @chi_haircare silk with keratin serum, @kerastase_official elixir, @cecred moisture sealing lotion, @olaplex bond smoother no.6, and @colorwowhair extra strength” No joke, following the steps gave me the best results I have ever gotten! It’s still not 100% perfect but sooo much better than my previous attempts. I’m actually excited to keep experimenting and perfecting my routine. Really giving this straight natural journey a solid try so follow along! 💃🏾 👇🏾 Comment “shop” for the link to shop all products & tools I use for my silk press. #silkpress #4chair #naturalhairtips #blackgirlhair #naturalhairjourney #naturalhaircare #protectivestyles #4cnaturalhair Comment SHOP below to receive a DM with the link to shop this post on my LTK ⬇ https://liketk.it/4Wv69 #ltksalealert #ltkbeauty #ltkvideo

#MonarchPartner I used to think my skincare splurges and spa days were sabotaging my savings. But guess what? Self-care isn’t just face masks and fancy creams – it’s an investment in YOU! @Monarch_Money ‘s custom budget categories have transformed my ‘guilty pleasures’ into guilt-free necessities. Here’s my secret: 1️⃣ Create a ‘Self-Care’ category in Monarch 2️⃣ Budget for your self care essentials like quality skin and bodycare, quarterly spa days, and personal hobbies like my puzzles and books 3️⃣ Track spending to stay on target 4️⃣ Enjoy that massage or face mask, knowing it’s all part of the plan! 😌💅🏿 Now I’m investing in my best asset (me!) without derailing my financial goals. Win-win! 🏆 Want to make self-care a sustainable part of your budget? Head to link in bio and use code Tolani for 30% off your annual subscription! #MonarchMoney

What are yall doing with your hair? *sings* “truth is I’m tireeeeed” But anyways, the girls hair is thriving! Comment “shop” for links to all the products I swear by for their hair. These days, my hair is always in some type of protective style so I really don’t see the point in having to manage SO MUCH HAIR between styles, which is why I am leaning towards cutting it much shorter….I say this every year, but I think I have reached my breaking point…idk but watch this space… Are you team ‘cut it off’? Team ‘straighten and pray’? Or team ‘hide it under a wig or protective syle and pretend it doesn’t exist’? #naturalhaircare #4chair #protectivestylesfornaturalhair #naturalhair

Because if you can cook stew, jollof, egusi, efo, Moi Moi, etc is there really anything that you can’t cook? 😂 So for this, I looked up a few recipes, bought the ingredients that I didn’t have already like this betapac curry and went at it. If you’re looking for the recipe…hmm lol I will try to remember everything and list it in the comments soon 🫣. I do remember thinking something was missing towards the end and adding just a tiny bit of coconut milk to it which brought it all together. This with boiled yam SLAPSSSS! Infact, someone should open up a Nigerian+Caribbean restaurant in houston, the combination 🧑‍🍳 💋!
