Are you tired of worrying about and managing your hair? Well it seems like you're not the only one as my sis' recently shared:

"It’s not easy as a black woman, at times it’s very HARD! Worrying about my hair is draining! I’m so sick of seeing those frontals- baby hairs-plucked out parts! YIKES! I’m not comin for y’all, cause I’m sick of these faux locs- soft Locs, butterfly styles, box braids, and all the take your edges out styles too! And I’m tired of twist outs on my own hair- and I want a relaxer but after being natural for 8+ years im scared. The judgement is real!
And Im on the fence with the sister-Locs. That’s a serious commitment AND, A lot of people aren’t doing them properly and still want $2k.

Let’s not talk about these kitchen and living room stylist charging us $$$$$ and are using beauty supply store products. Like these aren’t professional products that deep conditioner was $2.99 and you charging me $30 and I’m in your living room when I could be home naked on my own couch and COMFORTABLE’
The price to get your hair done has escalated, and some places, we’re not even gettin our hair washed, conditioned and treated properly. ITS NOT EASY!!!!! WHEW CHILE!!!!!!"

Apparently she's not the only one and A LOT of women had a few things to share and not all agreed. But conversation is healthy! I'm all about hashing out our different perspectives and coming to a conclusion of some sort.
Hopefully it ends with the understanding that WE'RE NOT OUR HAIR! And how can we be TRULY FREE from putting so much emphasis on it in the first place?

Be FREE!
Be You!

I would love to come to a city near you as you host a book talk so we can talk about it! I think I Like My Natural Hair helps us look beyond the "surface beauty" and get to the real core, because if you're exterior is lovely but your character is ALL JACKED UP, what's the point! How you treat others is really what matters in the end...

People remember how you made them feel rather than anything else...Hopefully we can come to an understanding that all of these material goods, wealth and endless chasings of things that make us feel good on the outside eventually fade and doesn't really do anything for us in the long run.

What about that lasting joy and satisfaction with your true, authentic self. SO we can begin to value the beauty that comes from within!

Be truthfully, and authentically you! In ALL IT'S BEAUTY!
Happy Thursday! I look forward to chattin' w/ya'll soon!

Love and Be Loved! Peace and Hair Grease!
