I'm Pretty Sure I'm Transitioning

I've been on the fence for a minute. But I think I'm going natural again. The whole post-partum shedding thing kinda made up my mind for me. The last thing I've wanted to do is make my hair appear thinner by relaxing it. So I've steered clear of chemicals for the past 9 months.

Oh, did I mention I was scalped at the beauty shop recently? I wanted a deep trim and ended up with one hell of a hair cut. Can't say I'm really upset. I knew the risk I was taking allowing a stranger to cut my hair. So basically...I look at it as a mini-chop. The back of my head is pretty much completely natural.

Oh well. Can't wait to bee 100% natural. I'll just press my hair when I want a straight look.

Welcome

Thanks for dropping by my blog! This site is dedicated to my seemingly never ending search for healthy long hair. I'm not talking about "cousin It" hair. Just enough to make me happy.

Black haircare pioneers like Annie Pope Malone and Madame CJ Walker paved the way for healthy ethnic hair. However recent years have found the industry lacking the curiosity and adventure these women possessed. Modern black hair care focuses primarily on styling versus health. Hence the epidemic dependence on weaves, phony ponies and extensions to emulate healthy growing tresses.

So....this blog will attempt to pick up where these two women left off: researching, experimenting and sharing basic ethnic haircare.
