Flex Or Mesh Which One Is Best??

 "FLEX OR MESH WHICH ONE IS BEST?"

    Hello all my Pixel Beauties!,

My name is Sugababy Brite and I'm here to lighten and brighten your day! The subject I'd like touch on today is of course hair, but not just hair alone but, the type that is preferred. Do we ladies prefer the Flexi hair or the Mesh hair?, because it seems to me that hair is stepping back in time.

When I first came to SL Flexi hair was what we were wearing and Mesh was slowly popping up at the clubs; you'd see somebody in the club with it and try to click on her hair trying to see the brand( Don't act like we ALL haven't done it before).

I'm not going to lie when I finally got a nice little Mesh lace front I took to it like the SL world took to the Maitreya body...lol

I HAD to have every latest mesh style there was, and all my Flexi took a back seat into my inventory. The crazy thing is I've noticed lately that Flexi hair is making a come back and ladies I'm feeling it! Don't get me wrong I still love my Mesh, but this new Flex is POPPIN'! One of my main Fav's is Punklist, they just seem to get what I'm looking for; ladies let me know if you feel the same, but my real question is which is better in your opinion?, because Suga is Feeling some Flex! Until

Flexin'

next time my Pixel Beauties,( Flips my Flex and exists stage left). ooOOOooooOOPPPP!

Hello and welcome back, hope you tuned in yesterday for our first black owned business! If you are new here, grab a seat and check out what we are doing this month!

For Black History Month, Eta Sigma Delta Inc will be highlighting some of our black owned businesses on the grid. These business leaders have been seen working very hard at what they do and showing everyone that they can and will do it. We want to recognize them for their hard work and dedication to their crafts. 

These businesses has made a positive impact to the community rather it was by recognizing their dedicated customers, giving out group gifts, joining into conversations with their customers on facebook or just by giving great customer service. We want to say thank you for letting us into your world and we commend you for your hard work and focus. 

Here is what our second business owner had to say.... 

Our second business is FROZEN ILLUSIONS! 

FROZEN ILLUSIONS is a professional Digital Art/Photography studio. They specialize in portrait art/photography and have been providing art to residents in the community for 10 consecutive years. Their studio is currently the longest running and most awarded professional studio within second life.

About the owner, Menkaure...

"My name is Menkaure, I've been a secondlife resident since early 2009 and I've been in the digital art profession since I was 16 years old. I come from a background of performing arts but switched my focus to fine arts from my sophomore year of high school onward where I focused primarily on acrylic paint and charcoal as my mediums of choice; That along with my natural passion for all things tech I've been able to use those skills to propel my career within second life. I've launched several successful brands including but not limited to: Frozen Illusions, Safaree/Pharaoh, Menkaure's Interior Design & Landscaping and L'Amour Family Clinic & Pharmacy. I've also held the title of Business Partner & Landscape Architect at POSH Designs, as well as Main Cover Photographer at DOPE Magazine."

FROZEN ILLUSIONS has been in business for 10 years and continues to grow. 

We asked Menkaure a couple of questions and here is what he had to say...

Do you find it is harder for you being a black owned business and specifically if a lot of what you design, creative or put together caters more to black people? 

- "Yes, however I am choosing not to respond as to why." 

        We respect that

What makes doing what you do rewarding for you? 

- "I love taking an idea from someone's imagination and bringing it to life for them. That is the most rewarding experiences to me as a creative."

Typically how long does it take you to get 1 item out? 

- "I can produce several portraits per day."  

What advice can you give to other black entrepreneurs trying to start their SL business? 

- "Set goals for yourself and stick to them. Don't let anyone deter you, even your own people and absolutely under any circumstance should you ever compare your product or success to anyone else."

What would you like to say to all of your supporters and customers? 

- "Thank you for believing in me, standing by me, keeping me in demand and overall just supporting me. Without you guys I'm not sure what path my life would've taken as I didn't know what to do with my life for a while and art was just something to express myself through but you guys showed me my passion and escape could also be my career on sl and beyond."

The Flawless Sapphires of Eta Sigma Delta would like to thank you Menkaure for taking time out of your busy day to give us a look inside your life. 

Please support this handsome young man and continue to show love to our black owned businesses in Second Life.

We want to say thank you for letting us into your world and we commend you for your hard work and focus. 

Here is what our first business owner had to say.... 

Our first business is QUEENZ! 

QUEENZ is a clothing store and I must say I shop there all the time and I am also in the group, I absolutely love her creations and she has always been friendly and welcoming. 

About the owner, MrsHoodRoyal...

"I always had a passion for fashion. I find inspiration in everything I see. I use my brand to also inspire upcoming black female designers, to show them that we can do anything we set our minds to."

QUEENZ have been in business for 5 years and continues to grow. 

We asked MrsHoodRoyal a couple of questions and here is what she had to say...

Do you find it is harder for you being a black owned business and specifically if a lot of what you design, creative or put together caters more to black people? 

- "I do feel like it's harder for us in the business side of Second Life. We have to work twice as hard as other designers because we are automatically labeled as "Urban" and make "Ghetto" clothing. Over time I have became "Universal" or more "Inclusive" because QUEENZ isn't just for one demographic of women it's for us all."

What makes doing what you do rewarding for you? 

- "The support from my customers is mind blowing. They are truly amazing women and I appreciate that. It really keep me pushing forward"

Typically how long does it take you to get 1 item out? 

- "About 1-4 days"  

What advice can you give to other black entrepreneurs trying to start their SL business? 

- "Never get distracted from your goals, don't get discouraged. And always strive to be better."

What would you like to say to all of your supporters and customers? 

- "I appreciate and love each of you!! Without you there is no QUEENZ 💓"

The Flawless Sapphires of Eta Sigma Delta would like to thank you MrsHoodRoyal for taking time out of your busy day to give us a look inside your life. 

Please support this beautiful young lady and continue to show love to our black owned businesses in Second Life.

All I Want For Christmas Day 4 ~Big Sister On Point~

All I want for Christmas is for 2021 to be much better than 2020. The whole world is suffering from this virus that came in and ruined families. I want equality for all, s peace, love, unity and healing hearts. I have lost a lot this year including my nephew to senseless violence. 

 I say peace.... Peace of mind, peace from harm, peace from ignorance, peace from bigotry, peace from prejudice, peace from bullying, peace from illnesses etc.   I just want PEACE, still silence, deafening peace.

I say unity because this world needs to heal from the man that was put into office for 4 years. He caused division and pain.   We are all HUMAN, bleed red and can all leave this earth the same. This is not years ago we need to excel better.

I say love because a lot of people forget how to love, or to love. Love is the essence of beauty, joy, leading to peace, unity and healing. Love does not mean possession. Love does not anger. Love conquers all especially, love of my savior Jesus Christ which is the true reason of this season we celebrate. It’s not about presents and good food, it’s about the one that died for us to save us. HE showed unconditional LOVE.

I wish my family and friends all of the above and know they have my love eternally. 

This is all I want for Christmas.

All I Want For Christmas Day 3 ~Big Sister Smiley~

 

This Christmas I just want to be safe and be well and for my family RL and SL to be safe and have A Merry Christmas! 

PS I want elf ears.

Big Sister Smiley ~ Angie Bloobury

All I Want For Christmas Day 2 ~Big Sister She Did That~

All I want for Christmas is good health and quality time with family. This year was a huge eye opener for me. I lost a few loved ones and it really took a toll on me. On the bright side it has shown me that family is everything. Quality time with the ones you love is so important over the material things. As long as those in my life are safe, healthy and happy then I'm goooooOd! 

I'm praying that our world finally heals and next year we are stronger than ever! Merry Christmas to my beautiful sisters. I love each and every one of you. I'm so thankful that we have crossed paths in this game of second life. May you all receive everything that your heart desires and so much more

All I Want For Christmas Day 1 ~ Big Sister Sweet N Sassy~

To say this year has been challenging would be an understatement. All I want for Christmas is for all my family and friends to be happy and healthy, for my son to have a wonderful Christmas, and world peace. 

This is all I want for Christmas.
