I love God & my family. Some of my hobbies include; natural hair, music, fashion, and did I mention natural hair. I am the ultimate girlie girl; I love dressing up, doing hair, makeup, fashion and SHOES. I value family, life, embrace self acceptance and cherish the things God give me to steward. I am optimistic and also a skeptic. It cost absolutely nothing to be positive or negative, I choose to be positive. This blog will incorporate a mixture of things that I am most passionate about. The main focus is hair but I will throw other things in there every once in a while. Please feel free to comment and ask questions, I LOVE QUESTIONS! Since going natural I have been glued to my laptop, I enjoy networking with other naturals who share the same love and respect for natural hair. My goal is to reach waist length hair by Aug 23, 2013. Thank you for stopping by Peace & blessings. Happy growing!!!!

Out with Twist outs, In with Braid outs





Natural hair journey has a lot to offer.From products to styles there is something for everyone and their liking.It still amazes me how alike yet different natural hair is; no matter how similar  you may think your hair is to someone else you will never find a hair that reacts the exact same. It's like skin that's why It's great to have options; I have discovered methods i live by, those that come according to the mood, and others that I no longer have use for. I am grateful for the roles all methods play in my journey. At some point they were all necessary. Few practices I no longer do include the following;

Oil Rinse
Two strand twists
Twist outs
Deep treatments 
Wash n Gos (never liked this style)

I am pretty sure I am leaving some out but for now this is all can think of. Like many new naturals when you are learning you tend to take advice from the wise. Now that I have learned MY hair, I know the things that it need. Getting to this point took alot of dedication but i enjoyed every step of it. It is great to treat your hair as a response to what it wants and not what people say it wants.
Cutting down on many of the practices has saved me ALOT of time in the bathroom which is refreshing because as the hair gets longer the more time it requires to wash, condish, etcs.

 What are some things you cut out of your regimen?
