Calling all Black women! Calling all Black women! Join the revolution of black natural hair now! You no longer have to hide your glory under wigs and weaves or mutilate the creamy crack! Calling all Black women! Calling all Black women! The time to release, it is now! Get rid of the stigma that says our hair is not as easy to use, versatile and beautiful than anyone else!
Sistas, cut wigs and weaving. Take the creamy crack (permanent) and put the plank! The science of natural hair care afro is upon us and in full force. Unlike the recent past, the knowledge and information on the maintenance, care and maintenance of natural hair is everywhere, in fact, many hair care lines natural African went shopping. Now we have no excuse to hide under wigs and weaves, because "we know how to deal with our hair" no, or worse, we believe that the "other" hair textures are more beautiful than ours.
The idea that black hair does not grow or that its unmanageable is an illusion. Certainly there hair care faster than launching a wig, but where is the pride in that? Why do we continue to tell the world that we do not think we are much less than what we look for white woman? If we continue to buy into what the world thinks of us, and we will continue to transmit the legacy of self-hatred for our future generations, is as simple as that. While the fake hair is not the only manifestation of self-hatred in the black community, but it certainly is a strong example. Protest and walk cursed 100 years for the world gives us equal in all aspects of life, it is time that we give the same capital to grow hair on our head? Indeed, the stigma that society has placed on black women is deeply rooted feature and dates back several centuries, but it is time for sistas to enter the 21st century and will set us free!
Indeed, the transition from chemically treated hair, wigs and fabric is the most important step. If you've never used your natural hair and not know anyone who takes the hair naturally, you may wonder how in the world can make the change request. My advice is to educate yourself first. There are hundreds, even thousands of YouTube videos showing Sistas natural hair care afro. There are many websites and blogs like CurlyNikki excellent are the best guides you could ask for the natural care.
The second step would be to stop crackin creamy (permanent)! Let your new growth comes in. Some sistas decide to go all in the (Big Chop) BC permed hair and immediately launch a TWA (teeny weeny afro). Others prefer to have more time before they cut their permanent and continue wearing a wig or a weave. But I would say if you are going to wear the armor, while the transition, get the old school, where you weave your hair is corn rowed first and then the fabric is sewn in. Just make sure your beautician do not pull the thread too tight and maintain a weekly deep conditioning regiment. It is also good transition with braids. Simple styles box braids are easy to maintain and help maintain a professional appearance at work. Once again, however, if you use synthetic hair, make sure not too tight braid condition, regular deep and keep them in over a month.
The natural hair care afro is actually very simple, moisturize, moisturize and moisturize. Although there are many products retail out there, you can really care for our hair pretty well with objects or things that are in common household kitchen. For example, I use coconut oil and olive oil to give me a hot oil treatment before co-wash (w / c). My hair like coconut oil and olive oil and reveals beautiful curls, soft and shiny with a twist two strands out. Many methods of natural hair conditioning Africa contain other household items, such as avocado oil, castor oil, shea butter or honey. Add a leave-in conditioner and you can create your own deep conditioning regiment.
One very important thing to remember that they are becoming natural to keep the heat to a very low minimum. Nothing breaks the hair as heat. If you want a blowout, make sure you only do it once a month and maybe even a little too. In addition, dust (trim) your hair religiously every eight weeks. The key word here is dust, do not get a haircut, but cut enough to overcome their extreme crisp.
For the world to respect us, we must first love and respect ourselves, we are. Yes, your hair! We black women. We are our color, lips and hips! If we were not, we would be another person. Up to us to overcome the fear and stigma, no one else can do for us. If you do not stop to take the stigma, the stigma remains.
This is my first blog about natural hair care afro and there are many more to come. You do not have to go it alone, there is not much information on the Internet, in the blogosphere and in the community, do not know why every sista is not natural. Black hair is beautiful and black women are beautiful when we use our natural hair. Now go 'head and Grow Your Natural!
