Michelle Obama Her sleek hairstyle
If you have naturally curly or kinky hair, the least-damaging way to straighten it is to blow-dry hair with a comb attachment, says hair stylist Dickey, whose celebrity clients include Michelle Obama. Before styling, use a sulfate-free shampoo (try Hair Rules Daily Cleansing Cream, $22) to minimize the dryness your hair texture is prone to, and a leave-in conditioner or heat protectant to seal in moisture and buffer heat, he says.

I love her! and her youthful style. I met her when she came to my campus and she looks so approachable, not uptight at all.

The first lady is a runner up for Jackie-O, speaking of Jackie, why haven't I seen a single thing on this site about her?? M. Obama is going to be considered an icon just like her, I would love to see some comparison between the two... if you can compare Jessica Simpson and Carrie Underwood why not Kennedy and Obama?

And this conversation has to be had in 2010. It makes me sad!

You all were right, I was wrong in the way I acted. Michelle Obama is a beautiful woman who exudes beauty and I did anything but. I apologize to everyone on this site for acting less than beautiful. Forgive me!

Thank you sooo much for giving beauty tips from our First Lady that can FINALLY be applied to African-American women! I enjoy all beauty tips and how artists create different looks for celebrities but usually it is nothing I can use on myself. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Please give even more details from the hair stylist and makeup artists with actual products used.

Sajada, I don't think your in way of the caliber of woman the First Lady is. You have worded yourself to be non-other than a getto trash. If you want respect, you have to be respectable. Take a look at such women of color as Jennifer Hudson, Diana Ross, Aretha Franklin, Beyonce, Sanaa Lathan they are all very respectable true "Women of Color" not because they have money but because they have been taught early one from their equally respectable parents/parent to be real with them selves as well as others. So with this I say "Get over it Baby"!!!!! I feel sorry for the friends you may have that you will continue to drag to the getto ground with you, I would advise them to drop you off and continue with their lives and better them selves.

Sajada, what is the definition of a bigot, look it up. The beauty tips presented above are not the best, they have ever put out. They are trying to get in their share of the lime-light. Today is a HUGE historical event, would you agree? I don't think the Gracious First Lady would have you by her side, speaking out in such a manner, she is far to classy for you. Obviously you have some kind of CHIP on your shoulder. and it seems that you need to Get OVER IT!!!!
