Two Years Natural – Five Lessons Learned

1. Two strand twists, bantu knots, braid outs and flat twists CAN’T HOLD A CANDLE to my natural curl pattern. There’s nothing wrong with those styles (I often rock them!) It’s just that for me “going natural” is loving my hair simply because it’s mine. I love my bushy sides, the mix of waves and curls up top – even that straight little patch in the back.

2. Not everyone loves my natural hair, and that’s ok. Not everyone loved my straight hair. Not everyone loves ME. Next!

3. Going natural is about more than wearing natural hair. It’s become a lifestyle. What goes inside is reflected on the outside.

4. I still have bad hair days.

5. My hair reflects a big part of me and my heritage, but it does not define me. That’s the beauty of going natural.

Here’s to another year!
