Blogging & Finance Post Highlights Of 2016

2016 was a year of branching out and getting more focused. I originally started my blog as a hair blog, but that soon became boring and too constrictive for me. So after a couple of years, I started branching out into more lifestyle topics adding beauty, blogging, and finance to the mix.

Despite hair posts still being more popular on my site, I did have a few blogging and lifestyle posts that also rose to the top.
