Five Whole Years....


Today marks Five whole years since I decided to go "natural and I could not be happier with my hair.

I was tired of portraying a "false beauty" by straightening and texterizing my hair and I wanted to show my daughter that We/She/I was beautiful just the way God had made me with my kinky/curly/tightly woven hair.

When I decided to chop it all off everyone thought I had lost my mind...especially my mother-in-law, and Kyle wasn't too happy either. I remember Zoe running down the stairs in tears because she thought I was going to cut her hair too...

I went a few months trying to figure out what was "next", wearing Afro's, and even head wraps...but overtime I grew to love my hair. I'm still figuring out what works best for my hair, and what to avoid. I can feel the texture change as I experiment with products, and even styles.

From nappy Afro's, to straight and sleek I love my Hair - which is something I am proud to be able to say...
