Relaxing Your Hairline is NOT Natural
I am reclaiming my napptural time. Subject: If your hair is natural and you relax your hairline are you still natural? My inbox blew up the other day. It seems there is some kerfuffle going on about natural hair bloggers on social media relaxing their edges, advising you to do it and now many folks out there want to know what I think (thank you for that).
Dry Hair? You Can Fix That
By far, the most common problem naturals are faced with is dry hair. I don’t mean “not wet” dry hair. I mean dry like the Sahara dry. If you are having this problem, there is one thing you must do before anything else.
Chemicals in "Natural" Products
Going natural after years of relaxing your hair can be a difficult time. Not only are you confronted with a brand new texture of hair you are not used to, you are also entering a brand new world of hair care products.
Feed Your Body. Feed Your Hair.
The most important thing I am going to say to you is this, so let me get it over with now. A healthy body grows healthy hair.
Natural Hair and The Military
It wasn't long ago that wearing natural hair other than in a short afro, was prohibited in the US military. Times are changing, slowly.
