It’s been a while

It’s been a minute since I’ve been up here just wanted to pop in and say Hello I’m still alive ❤️🫶🏽 #sisterlocks #locs #microlocs #blackgirllemon8 #naturalhair #hairgrowth

2024/8/17 Edited to

In recent years, the natural hair movement has gained substantial traction, celebrating the beauty of textured hair and encouraging women of color to embrace their natural curls and locs. Sisterlocks, microlocs, and traditional locs offer various styling options that can enhance personal expression and confidence. Many people are curious about the hair growth process as well. Ensuring the right nutrition, a healthy scalp, and regular moisturizing can positively impact hair health. There are countless resources and community forums dedicated to providing support and sharing tips on maintaining locs and other natural hairstyles. If you’re considering transitioning to natural hair or starting your loc journey, it's essential to connect with others who share similar experiences. Engaging with communities on platforms like Lemon8 can provide invaluable support and inspiration. Whether you’re looking for advice or simply want to share your progress, these connections can enhance your hair journey and promote a sense of belonging.

It’s Been A Dream Of Mine To Be Able To Do This 🥹

This one’s been on the vision board for a while. And honestly, not because we’re car people. Nice cars have never been something that have held a lot of value to us. But having something safer for the girls to ride in and more space for our family + just having a truck in general for my random D

What it’s been like dating in the COMMUNITY 🏳️‍🌈✨

Dating in the community for me as a #blacklesbian has probably been the most treacherous experience I’ve had since starting dating. 📝Side note: I dated (and using this word very lightly) men previous to my last relationship to my ex-girlfriend. So dating women is a whole new thing for me.
