Inspiration

After being au natural for exactly a year. Eventually, I decided to relax my hair, that I did. That very day I went to my local beauty supply store where I bought; Vitale Hair Polish, Organics Tea tree & Carrot oil and 3 packs of  Annie's Extra large rollers. I thought that was all I needed. At that moment I was thinking my hair needs to look shiny to be healthy. After experiencing excessive shedding I decided to Google and YouTube my problem which was an enlightening experience. That day I discovered "uluvmegz" channel which was a relief because most videos I encountered were about natural hair care. After watching her videos I came to the realization that relaxed hair can grow long and I definitely needed more products in order to care for my hair. Ultimately, products are not the only means to healthy hair but you must firstly understand and listen to your hair, develop techniques to minimize any form of damage and lastly use products that your hair loves.

 

Proverbs 4:7
 "Wisdom is the principal thing;Therefore get wisdom.And in all your getting, get understanding."

My progress

Hair was never important to me. As a child I always figured that black hair rarely grows because women around me were highly dependent on all forms of extensions. I was told that we (Black women) do not have good hair. What exactly makes our hair bad? I think that understanding for something can change one's perspective. Black women lack the understanding of their hair which leads to improper care which often results to no length retention. I am of the belief that "Good hair" is healthy hair whether you are Indian, Chinese or Black. Without further ado....
