Black and Natural in Jerusalem: Naturally Me!

I have been natural for a long time and have gone through a lot of trial and error with my hair. I have to say that I’m pretty satisfied with the progress I’ve made and the things I’ve learned along the way. For a long time, I didn’t know exactly what I was doing with my hair. I asked questions, and did what other natural friends were doing, but I didn’t understand the “why”s of the process. Often, I was just trying to figure this whole thing out, which, I suppose, is what we’re all trying to do when we begin this journey. About 3 years into my natural hair journey, I began watching youtube videos on the subject, and suddenly WOW, a world of information was opened up to me! I hadn’t realized that there were so many resources available to me. In fact, when I started my natural journey, I’m sure that these resources weren’t available. You see, I went natural in 2005, and it all started out with me getting these micros…(more on that later)

Anyway, about 3 years into my journey, I was trying to find information online about conditioning natural hair, and came across  Glamazini's page. If you haven’t heard of her, read her blogs, or watched her vids, check her out. She is very informative, and a lot of fun, too. ;-) I discovered from her vlog that people, in fact, made videos about natural hair and actually posted them on youtube!! And I was on my way! Since then, I’ve watched a lot of videos, read a lot of blogs, tried a lot of products, and learned a lot about my own hair, and the result of that process is that I have come down to filtered out a lot of information and learned what works best for MY head of beautiful (and it is beautiful) natural hair.

Come take the journey with me as I continue to learn about and grow MY natural hair. It's gonna be a blast!
