I don’t know if you noticed this but there are an awful lot of natural hair events going on. Too many to attend and I just don’t know where to start! After Tammy’s wonderful Show up and Show Out event, I went to Natural’s Night out and today I was honored to be invited to […]

Here I am getting ready to flaunt hair and fun makeup at N.C. Natural Hair Show!
People who criticize Gabby’s hair obviously don’t care about sports or at least they care more about hair than the efforts it takes to reach the top. As a fanatic sports woman, I definitely care more about sports and to say that the comments of these people deeply bother me is an understatement. To hope […]
For years I have been relaxing my hair. Yes, it was beautiful but I never realized that my hair was being damaged until my aunt, who also has natural hair, told me. So, she decided to give me what is called an intense treatment. We did a pre-poo in my hair using olive oil and […]
Although natural hairstyling was not at all a part of the curriculum, I got into natural hairstyling when I was in barber school.

As noted on my natural hair website, “Fragile, thin natural hair has flourished in Sisterlocks.

No. Sisterlocks’ small size really are the perfect style for thin-haired naturals. By Terez Howard
By Terez Howard Yep. 13 hours to install my Sisterlocks. For some, it takes 8 hours. For others, installation lasts 30 hours over the course of 3 days. Why the differences huge differences in time?

Protective natural hair styles include twists, Bantu knots and braids. Senora mentioned that constant combing and handling of tightly coiled hair can cause breakage. Ladies with tightly coiled hair types achieve […]
Yup. Locks are matted chords of dead, shed hair. Actually, all hair is dead. Oh, but there’s more. Did you know there there are finitely 100,000 hairs that grow on your head at infancy. Those hair strands are terminal and will only regenerate a certain number of lifecyles. Those hair strands will cycle through telogen, […]
So I have decided to finally take that natural step towards healthier hair! All of you out here who have joined this site are probably on the same hair journey as I am…which is why you join a site like this. I am looking for advice and support from other sistahs out there who have […]

My daughter sent me an article today that asked the question: Can having natural hair hurt a black woman’s career? It went on to suggest that for some it can be more difficult to get ahead or be promoted and make good money. It also suggested that it is viewed as unattractive by some employers. I […]
Hi I found your website on google. I have very kinky African hair (dry type) if a 4d type exists that’s mine and I am very prone to dandruff. I live in Australia and it is impossible to know how to care for natural hair. I know you have a product page but I would like you to […]
