New hair journey

I went from having 18"locs after five years, to 6" of loose natural hair after cutting, and combing out my locs this past October. After breast cancer surgery, and losing my mother five days later, it was time for a change. I will stay natural, but I don't think that I will loc again. 🙏🏾

... Read moreHair journeys can be profound, often tied to personal experiences and transformations. Many people with locs choose to remove them for various reasons, whether it's a life change, embracing a new style, or simply a fresh start. This process not only involves physical change but also emotional healing. Cutting or combing out locs requires careful consideration of hair type and maintenance plans for loose natural hair. For those considering a similar transformation, it’s important to research and understand the right products and techniques to care for your newly natural hair. Embracing natural hair can be liberating, allowing for versatility in styling, but comes with its own challenges including nurturing and protecting the hair texture. It's also a journey of rediscovery, exploring new hairstyles, nourishing routines, and connecting with the natural hair community for support and inspiration. Many resources are available online, including tutorials and product reviews tailored for natural hair care. Remember, every hair journey is unique, and what works for one person may not work for another. Your hair is a reflection of your individuality, embracing your choices can inspire others!

Additional Tips🥰: keep it simple and only use silk hair ties and claw clips to prevent breakage!! Get trims every 6 months and don’t forget to drink 3 liters of water every day this also plays a major factor into growing hair! Remember, this is not gonna be an overnight journey!! #hair growth 😏
