3 YEARS AND RUNNING!!!

So today marks 3years of me being natural with my hair. I'm so proud of myself for continuing to accomplish something that I'm very passionate about. There has been times that I wanted to go back to a relaxer because I didn't know what to do with my hair. But I'm soo happy that I did not and I will not go back. It's just not worth it especailly with the damage that my hair faced for so many years. I hope that my journey will continue to inspire you and please stay tuned for so much more!

Can you tell me how to get… How to get to SEASME STREET!?!

Everyone’s favorite childhood learning program has jumped on board and showing children how to appreciate their HAIR. As they were teaching the children about the letter H is for Hair, the Muppet, who was a little black girl (with a fro) sung a song about how she LOVES HER HAIR! If you missed the episode I have posted the YouTube video on my pages underneath Sesame Street: “I REALLY LOVE MY HAIR”. Please be sure to show this video much support by letting your children, family and friends view it.

The day I made my decision...



It was on October 17, 2007 when I put my LAST RELAXER in my hair. I remember I was in Atlanta, Georgia visiting my friend India Nichols for her Morehouse/Spelman Homecoming. After speaking with her about her plans to go natural and the reasons of her decision I started to think about it me. Thinking about how damaged my hair was even though it was long and how I started noticing a short spot in the middle of my head! And that’s when it hit me… Maybe I should give this natural thing a try, so on my drive back home I really put thought into what, how, and will this actually work for ME!?! I told myself “If it doesn’t I can always put a relaxer back in.

7 days and counting....

In exactly 7 days I will be celebrating my 3 years of NATUALNESS!!! I'm so excited about this day and the many years to come. Over the next year+ I plan to keep my family, friends and the world informed about the natural, happier, and healthier ME! So please continue to visit my blog as often as you like to see what’s going on with me.
