First headlining a show in my city …Younger me is screaming. From singin in the church to doing my own set at home… I really went to Samoa, got reminded of where and who we come from, flew back to LA and hit the ground runnin. Immensely grateful for life & all it entails

My best friend set us up. She knew he peaked my interest, but I wasn’t really trying to date so she lied about the time & date of a going away party. I pulled up to the spot, she was nowhere to be found and there he was. To be loved on so much that I’m able to love on myself is🤌🏽

Dinah is the biggest polynesian mainstream artist of our time. For her first tour she included as many polys as possible & if you don’t support that then that’s on you. She didn’t have to do that. Ya girl is voluntarily carrying the community on her back & I LOVE witnessing it♥️

Trim your ends, only use shampoos that say “sulfate free” once a week, use tshirt or microfiber towel to dry hair NOT towel, try to use products that contain natural ingredients like coconut(oils), use a denman brush for more defined curls, use deep conditioning mask 1-2 x’s /wk.

It ..is...such .. a ..turn on ..when a man you’re into is completely open/ transparent. Too many men use a tough, prideful exterior to hide their true feelings & it isn’t healthy for them or their environment. It is a sign of STRENGTH & I cannot stress how attractive it is.
