I get a lot of questions about my hair,
both from people I know and from absolute strangers. “Isn’t it hard to
maintain?” “How do you style it?” and my least favorite: “Can I touch it?”
Haha.

Haha.
So let me clarify a few things:
My hair is in its natural state; its not
chemically altered by relaxers or texturizers. The reason for this is simple: I
like my hair the way it is. I like it’s fullness and versatility and therefore
I see no reason to change it. I’m sorry if you expected a long-winded
explanation about how the society has brainwashed the black woman into thinking
that only “tamed”, straight hair is beautiful and that by keeping my hair
natural I’m trying to “Fight The Power”. Nah, I just like my hair.

My hair is MY HAIR, like I grow it from my own roots. You’ll never see me wearing hair attachments like hair weaves or wigs. It is just not my thing.
I loveee trying new things with my hair, I design most of my hairstyles 🙂
So, from time to time I’ll be posting
pictures of my hairdo’s and I’ll try to describe how I created them, enjoy!
