Hey guys,
I am so excited to be one of five women featured in Creme of Nature’s 2010 print ad campaign. That’s me at the right end of the first row. This ad will appear in Essence Magazine and a few other black beauty mags. Yay!
OMG Leila!!! YAY!!! You betta GET ITTTTT!
hey, I saw this and was smiling becuase I love visiting both your blog and Afrobella’s, just wondering how come your hair is in a TWA in the picture, recent photos show otherwise?
Congratulations, Leila!
Cute pic, and a great plug! Wish you all the best.

You’re gorgeous! Every time I see the ad, I’ll point you out and pretend to my friends that it’s the first time I’m seeing it. I’ll say, “Oh snap! Look! I know her. It’s my friend Leila from way back in the day.” What can I say? I have no shame.
Congratulations. Your fame is richly deserved.
You look so beautiful! I was so psyched when I knew more than half of these bloggers! You deserve all publicity and praise, you’ve changed our hairstories with your blog. Keep it up!
I saw this in Black Hair magazine and I was like, OMG IT’S LEILA! I’ve been trying to figure out how to segue some kind of Congratulations into a post, but now I don’t have to. So…
Congratulations!
So awesome.
THATS AWESOME LEILA!! You look so gorgeous! Did you like the products that are posted under your pic in the caption? That may be something the natural newbies want to know..
Blessings and Congrats! Represent, Represent!

oh wow – just noticed that they have the most popular bloggers posted! Harlista Afrobella BGLH Nadege I cant make out the other persons’ name or site
Thats some serious marketing to get our $$$$ — Is this a response to increased presence of forums and the new networks and support systems that have been created online among black women? Hmmm..
I saw this when I looked through my sis’s Essence. Congrats. I also recognized Bella from Afrobella.
I’m excited for you. BTW, the hair looks ridiculously regal on you.
that is wonderful!!!
oh yay!! congrats!! glad there’s a variety of looks for the ad, you look lovely my dear :)

You look so pretty!!!! Congrats, Leila! I’m so proud of all the moves you’re making with this blog :)
CONGRATS !!!
Congrats, can I say that I absolutely love your smile. It must have been a while since this shots were taken because your hair has grown so much. Hey, just out of curiosity – do you use this product for real because I skip past it all the time. Has anyone used it? Is there a product review for it? If not, then I might just have to try it because I am completely out of products and need to shop anyway. Let me know. Thanks and congrats again! :O)
OMG CONGRATSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS LEILA! You are doing some AWESOME BIG thangs and I am so HAPPY for you! God Bless you and your career :-)
Thanks guys!!!
It’s not a TWA, it’s an updo. Full disclosure: I was having a HORRIBLE hair day when I had to go in and do the shoot!
So I pinned up the back of my hair and did this swoop bang thing in the front to give some volume.
Leila
OMG, that is awesome!! Congrats, Leila!
Congrats! That’s awesome!
Congratulations, you look beautiful!
Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is exciting! congrats
Been meaning to get on here and say something… I was going through my new essence and saw the ad! Congrats and keep up the good work!!! I think I may try out some of the products!
Congratulations Leila!
You look beautiful! Congratulations!!!!
Regarding the actual product, have you used it? I use the Creme of Nature shampoo (before they changed the formula and bottle design) b/c the new stuff has SLS in it. Shame on them!
Very very cool. Congrats!
Super stoked for you!! You look awesome in that ad, girl! CONGRATS!!!!
awwww lei! you look beautiful!
