Blessings to all. About 3 weeks ago I went to my past stylist & had my hair blow dryed , flat ironed straight & my ends trimmed. I haven’t had my hair that way in almost a yr & let me tell you my hair has grown so much. I only kept it straight for a week. I […]
When I found out two years ago that I would be moving to Hong Kong, one of the first questions I asked myself was the following: “ What the heck am I gonna do with my hair?” For many non-Black folk out there, this is probably a non-issue, but for most of my brothas and […]
Tamara of Houston, Texas went natural in October 2006. She describes her decision to go natural as a liberating one since it allowed her to create her own personal definition of beauty. Since then she became confident enough to take control of her body image.
I stopped relaxing on October 22, 2008. I just woke up one day and thought, “Man, this stuff is seriously damaging. It even says on the box, ‘Can cause blindness!’” So, I decided to transition. I got Dominican blowouts from time to time and then switched to weaves, braids, and twists. In April 2009, […]
The most difficult part of the natural journey is acceptance and resisting the relaxer. I had no idea how my God-given texture would feel or how it would look. Once it began to coil from my scalp, it was a pleasant surprise. The process of accepting my natural beauty began. Name: Kenyada Jones Location: […]
I decided to go natural since May 2010. I transitioned for 6 months. After doing protective style after protective style I settled on Senegalese twists for the last 3 months of my transition. On 27 Nov 10 I did my BC. It has been one of the best decisions I’ve made thus far.I went natural […]
I was using perm products for as long as I can remember. My hair would come out and grow back. I remember as a child wearing my short bush and loving the freedom I had then. As I got older and life took its toll, my daughter heard me say so many times I should […]
To be honest, it’s been so long that I have been natural (more than 10 years) that I can’t really remember what prompted me to go natural in the first place, but I do remember that I never really liked how my hair looked when it was permed. It was pretty much lifeless and it […]
As an African-American female the decision to wear my hair natural was a challenge, especially in Ohio because it is considered a conservative state wherein conforming to how a person should look is more accepting, for example, wearing relaxed hair or weave to land that corporate job.
I actually love natural styles and find them to be beautiful at all lengths, so for me the journey has yet to present a hard situation. I recall a lot of hard situations I dealt with when I had relaxed hair.
The day my idol (hair extensions) was toppled My hair story . . . . where do I start? Sadly, I have to confess that beginning of 2008 was the first time I wore my own hair as an adult woman. And when I say my own hair I mean relaxed but sans extensions. For […]

Okay. So Today I’m just sitting here in my dorm on the computer, trying to figure out what I should do with my hair when I take the braids out. I really want to be able to do all that I can for my hair, but on my budget I don’t know what effective but […]
