I went natural June 10, 2014.  I was tired of my hair always breaking off, & I never got perms often but every 3 months maybe longer & one day I just noticed all the new growth I had & how pretty my curl pattern was & just decided to go natural. & I'm very happy I made that decision my hair has been the healthiest it has ever been

The most challenging thing about going natural was when I was transitioning for about 6 months, trying to maintain my natural curl pattern & also my transitioning ends.

Sunday is normally wash day for me, I like to co wash, with Shea moistures 10 renewal conditioner & deep condition with there raw Shea butter deep conditioner then style my hair either in a braid out, or twist out, using there curl enhancing smoothie & a little argan oil to last the whole week

For my night time routine I always mist my hair with a little bit of water mixed with Sheamoistures 10 renewal conditioner & rub a little oil on my hair & put my silk scarf on to protect my ends & I'm ready for bed 

8. Do you use heat on your hair at all? 

I used heat on my hair once when I was 6 months natural but have not since then because my hair began to shed a whole lot.​

9. Do you braid your hair? If so, how often do you do so in a year? 

I love braiding my hair. Protective styling has helped me so much with my hair growth journey. I braid my hair about 6 times a year. I like to do Marley braids & box braids

Equal I like to protective style & also let my fro out. 

12. Have you ever had a hair tragedy? What was it? How did you recover from it?

When I got my hair straightened for the first time I had some heat damage. But I really took care of my hair constantly deep conditioning twice a week & treating my hair like a baby, keeping it moisturized & I have no more heat damage & so glad I didn't have to cut my hair to recover from it 

13. What's your biggest tip for maintaining healthy or long hair?

My biggest tip is deep conditioning, I think deep conditioning is super important for keeping your hair moisturized & giving it all the nutrients that it needs. Specially with curly hair we need all that moisture to keep our hair from being dry. deep conditioning is key
