(Photo by Michael Kovac/Getty Images for Paley Center For Media) Angelo David Talks New Hair Extension Trends & End Hair Breakage It’s the holiday season, so that means many people want to look their best as they attend holiday parties and spend time with loved ones. With that in mind, BOSSIP spoke with celebrity hairstylist and hair care expert Angelo David, of the Angelo David Salon in Manhattan, about how you can protect yourself from hair loss without sacrificing the fun, beauty and variety of using hair extensions.” BOSSIP: What are some of the newest methods of application to get extensions? AD: “Tape-in hair extensions have taken over the hair extension market because they are safe and easy to apply. Using a cylinder attachment method is also popular. Both of these methods rely on re-useable hair extensions. Matching the client’s hair color, thickness, texture, density and length is very important when creating a seamless look with these methods.” BOSSIP: What are some of the dangers of improperly applied extensions? AD: “Just a few include permanent hair loss, bald patches, breakage and headaches. That’s why at Angelo David, our Couture Extensions are completely customized for a natural look and a perfect fit. They can also solve almost any hair challenge, including thinning hair and hair loss. We offer dozens of application methods, and all use 100% human hair extensions. During the consultation, we match the client’s own hair to the extensions for a perfect color and texture match.” THE NEIGHBORS – “The One With Interspecies F-R-I-E-N-D-S” – After a botched game night leaves Jackie doubting her and Debbie’s friendship, they go for makeovers by Shirley (guest star Wendy Williams) at a salon that specializes in African American hair care – hairstyles ensue. Also in the episode, Amber and Reggie continue to explore their biological differences and bond over nature programming, while Dick’s plan to get Marty in shape backfires and results in an injury that brings Larry face-to-face with the realities of Earth’s healthcare system, on “The Neighbors,” FRIDAY, OCTOBER 11 (8:31-9:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

Choose the right hair extensions for your hair, see an expert and do not take any shortcuts. Do your research. 2. Use the correct hair brush. I recommend Angelo David Paddle Brushes ( $35, $55 and $65 at http://www.angelodavid.com ). My brushes promote healthier hair and stimulate the scalp through an ideal balance of naturally conditioning boar bristles and gently separating nylon bristles. Precise bristle placement ensures tangle-free brushing and inhibits split ends. All these brushes have double-cushioned, flexible padding that adjusts to the contours of the scalp and a balanced handle for excellent grip and control. They’re great for blow drying and brushing both natural and Couture hair. 3. Hair extensions must be brushed before you wash your hair. Do not wash your hair under a sink or with your head flipped upside down, since this can encourage tangling. Shampoo your hair in the shower. 4. When shampooing, apply the shampoo when your hair is wet, and be very gentle. Stroke your hair instead of scrubbing and rubbing it.”

SiriBAE Season: Kofi Siriboe Covers ESSENCE’s December Issue

For your viewing pleasure… Kofi Siriboe And Maxine Waters Cover ESSENCE It’s officially SiriBAE season. Kofi Siriboe is covering ESSENCE’s new December 2017/January 2018 double issue alongside U.S. Congresswoman Maxine Waters. In it, Kofi speaks on his heritage, “Girls Trip” where he appeared in that infamous grapefruit scene, as well as “Jump”, the debut project he wrote, directed and starred in. Kofi was interviewed by his on-screen dad and veteran actor Glynn Turman for the cover. On success after “Girls Trip” and the grapefruit scene: TURMAN:“…Your popularity soared with Girls Trip which grossed more than $125 million. After my wife and I saw it and we came home, I’m watching TV and she stood in the doorway and said, ‘Try this!’ with a grapefruit in her hand. Were you surprised by how well the film performed?” SIRIBOE: [Laughs] “I’m always surprised because you never know. I remember thinking, Ohhh, so this is the movie we’re making? Got it. We had a good time…” On his heritage: “In first grade I was asked ‘What’s your favorite food?’ I said, ‘Fufu,’ and everybody laughed. I also remember asking my teacher not to say my full name, Nana-Kofi [Nana means ‘son of kings’]. Last year I went to Kumasi, in Ghana, for the first time and met the king, whose real name is Nana.” “I didn’t always understand the roots that are woven into my name, but that realization is happening now.” In addition to covering ESSENCE, Kofi was named one of People magazine’s “Most Beautiful People.” SiriBAE season indeed.

Actor Kofi Siriboe posed on the red carpet during the Girls Trip movie screen at the Theaters At Canal Place in New Orleans on Friday, June 30th, 2017. “Girls Trip” Is Available On Demand, Blu-ray & DVD Kofi Siriboe said even he’s surprised by what seems like his overnight success in Hollywood. He’s become of Black Twitter’s all time favorite panty-melters, enjoyed a love scene with Jada Pinkett-Smith in “Girls Trip” and gained a cult following as Ralph Angel Bordelon on “Queen Sugar.” “I’m still processing it all,” Siriboe told BOSSIP, adding that since he’s been shooting back to back – first “Girls Trip,” then season two of “Queen Sugar” – he hasn’t had time to take it all in. “I’m one of those people who really likes to take their time,” he said. “I’m still computing it all.” Nevertheless, Siriboe said he appreciates the love from the ladies, and hopes he can use his eye candy status to spread positivity. “It’s an honor,” Siriboe said. “Anytime people show you love you have to appreciate that…I genuinely believe my purpose is to make people’s minds flutter and hearts flutter, but to also let people pay attention to the messages that are bigger than me.” The 23-year-old stars in this summer’s smash hit “Girls Trip” which lands on digital and is available on Blu-ray, DVD and On Demand. He said he couldn’t believe his luck when he got to make out Pinkett-Smith, his childhood crush, for the film. “That was crazy because I’ve been crushing on Jada since I was a kid,” he said. “Jada is just THE figure. She and Will represent so much.”

Controlling America’s Women: Ohio Republicans Pass “Heartbeat Bill” Which Bans Abortion At 6 Weeks

Republicans In Ohio Pass “Heartbeat Bill” Banning Abortion The United States government has a sick obsession with telling women how they are supposed to treat their bodies . The issue of abortion has been hotly contested for YEARS now, and in the days before Donald’s inauguration, those opposed to the often-necessary medical procedure have decided that now is their chance to rule women’s wombs. According to CNN , Ohio Republicans have passed what is known as the “Heartbeat Bill” which bans abortion (regardless of rape or incest) after a fetus’ heartbeat is audible. Usually that would occur about 6 weeks into a pregnancy. “One, a new President, new Supreme Court justice appointees change the dynamic, and that there was a consensus in our caucus to move forward,” Ohio Senate President Keith Faber, a Republican from Celina, told reporters after the final vote. Asked if he thought the bill would survive a legal challenge, he said: “I think it has a better chance than it did before.” Former Presidential candidate, Gov. John Kasich, now has 10 days to decide whether or not he wants to veto the bill. Hopefully he will. How arrogant is it to wield religious morality (because that’s really all anti-abortion people want to do) as a weapon against women, especially when the wielding is being done by men who don’t have to concern themselves with child birth?

Guess Who’s Coming Out? This Grey’s Anatomy Cast Member Announces That They Are “Queer, Bisexual” [Video]

Grey’s Anatomy Actress Sara Ramirez Comes Out As Bisexual “Grey’s Anatomy” star Sara Ramirez spent her Saturday afternoon speaking to homeless LGBT kids at True Colors Fund’s 40 to None Summit in L.A. In addition to kickin’ game to young’ns, Sara used the opportunity to publicly acknowledge her bisexuality for the very first time. “So many of our youth experiencing homelessness are youth whose lives touch on many intersections – whether they be gender identity, gender expression, race, class, sexual orientation, religion, citizenship status. Because of the intersections that exist in my own life: woman, multi-racial woman, woman of color, queer, bisexual, Mexican-Irish American, immigrant, and raised by families heavily rooted in Catholicism on both my Mexican and Irish sides, I am deeply invested in projects that allow our youth’s voices to be heard.” We can only guess that none of this comes as a shock to some of you who watch Sara play a bisexual doctor Callie Torres, but it is still acting… Image via ABC
