Happy New Year!! What do I do next, now that I am natural?!

Its a New Year, meaning a brand new start to do all the things you didn't get to do last year.

Some of my New Year's resolutions are getting back into blogging this year and more importantly to find a hair regimen that works for daily maintenance

Hey Natural ladies out there what are some of your New Year's hair goals? I don't know about any of you ladies who are Newly Natural but I have been feeling like I am stuck lately with my hair and styling it...So one of my hair goals is giving the natural hair maintenance another year before I give up and throw my hands in the air and revert back to a perm. Another New Year's goal is getting out to attend more Natural Hair events this coming year..

 

What are some of your New Year's hair resolutions?

Not sure, well here are a few New Year's hair tips to start off with especially if you are newly natural:

• Invest in some good hair products free of Sulfates, Parabens, and Silicons  Being Natural requires lots of moisture, especially if you recently big chopped or  are transitioning from Permed hair to Natural hair.  Some good products that work for all curl types are Shea Moisture Curling Smoothie (with hibiscus and Coconut); Mixed Chicks hair conditioner; Aubrey Organics and Jane Carter are some good places to start.

• LOVE YOU AND YOUR HAIR!!! You may have seen another curly head of natural hair and thought OMG! I want my curls to look just like (insert name here)!! Learning to embrace your hair texture/textures (most naturals find they have more than one hair type) and more importantly find the styles and hair care regimen that works for your hair, after all not all products one curly girl uses will have the same Magical effects on you
  
• CONFIDENCE....How you feel about your self image will project how others will look at you. Not having a good hair day, find a way to make the best out of it. I found the days I felt I looked a mess most people like the way my hair looked. So embrace and be confident in you and your demeanor will reflect that

• SMILE! having a beautiful smile on your face helps to brighten up any hair or attitude for that matter. Smile more its a great hair booster and it doesn't cost a thing

 HAPPY NE W YEAR...STAY TUNED FOR MORE HAIR CARE; GIVEAWAYS; AND MORE!!!



Patience is KEY!! Have you had a dose of Patience today?

As we all know there is a lot of twist and turns on this road of Natural Hair...But I found this and thought it was worth re-posting. After all your hair depends on it....Heck everything we do in life or don't do in life boils down to the one thing that matters most.... PATIENCE!!!

Patience- bearing pains or trials calmly or without complaint (as per Webster's dictionary)

So whenever you feel like that TWA just wont work or that twist out you spent hours on has left behind a frizzy mess, just remember that despite all that we go through the healthy hair on your head even when its temperamental is still worth all the fuss and fight...but when the going gets tough...break out that spray bottle of PATIENCE to smooth away the fly-a-ways...Oh yeah and by the way...this is the only hair care regimen that will never break the bank...ITS ABSOLUTELY FREE!!
