Even though, I was unable to receive the package from the sponsors on time for my photo shoot as well as being in Vermont a t shirt is the last thing you would want to wear in the blistering cold. Nonetheless I was able to find a t shirt and showcase how to wear a t shirt several ways in the Haute or Not Challenge.
Background
Naptural Roots is all about physical, mental, and emotional health. It really is about so much more than just hair. After reading a couple Naptural Roots articles and looking through the pictures, I came across The Naptural Bill of Rights. The Naptural bill of rights really stood out to me. Article 2, “I have the right to pursue excellence in health, wealth, and personal welfare without man-made limitations, judgments and obstacles” stood out to me in particular. This is something that I strongly believe. From starting out on my own at the age of 17 and working 2 to 3 jobs just to get through school, to attending a full-time Master’s program while running my non-profit, the past couple of years have been challenging. However, no matter what life throws my way, I have always strived for excellence and it is my right to do so.
Hello again ladies,
The judges have spoken again this week. Guest judge is LeAnne Dulce, owner of Naptural Roots Magazine and sponsor of this wonderful challenge. Here is what she and the other judges had to say about your performance of challenge 7 Haute or Not.
Challenge 7: Naptural Roots Website and Magazine
Healthy living has not always been a priority in my life…daily I splurged on custard, French Fries, Pizza and Chinese food…yes…DAILY. It took many years to lose weight, but also get my mind RIGHT. Because of my choices in college, not it is extremely important for me to not only be healthy physically, but also mentally and spiritually.
When I browsed through the Naptural Roots magazine and looked around online, I loved the fact that real people were spotlighted and concrete ideas were mentioned to help inform people about being healthy and natural. (I really loved Poets Peace as well as the pieces on wellness and spirituality, as well as natural hair and skin care!)
To begin I would like to thank the sponsors of this challenge for providing us with awesome tshirts and earrings that promote natural hair and beauty. Naptural Roots Magazine positively reinforces the concept of loving oneself and natural hair. This magazine also strives to educate real people on real issues, which is something that I appreciate.
