I have been a devoted naturalista and it’s been good…so far, so good. I feel cleaner and less worried about my hair breaking and relaxers burning my scalp and so on. But I still find it difficult just wearing my natural hair just like that without braids or hair extensions. To take off all the…

#iwearorange;ORANGE YOUR WORLD, I JUST DID.

ME AND MY NATURAL HAIR (1)
Proudly Naturalista! It has been more than a year since I had my hair relaxed and I am loving it…the natural way. I am not in any way against relaxed hair but I just love the feel of something natural and ‘mine’. So far on this hair journey, I am addicted to shea butter, coconut…
