Loving Natural Hair


To love natural hair means to have knowledge about it, to accept it and to appreciate it.  

Knowledge is power and it matters.  Natural hair is hair texture that has not been altered by chemical straighteners, including relaxers and texturizers.  These chemicals are known to be very damaging to the hair and health.  That is why so many people with curly hair and kinky curly hair have decided to stop using them. 

Accepting that natural hair is like DNA is important. Textured hair comes in different lengths, curl type, and density.  Some people have course dry hair with a tight curl pattern while others have a loose curl pattern with soft hair.  Some individuals have thick strong hair while others have thin weak hair.  In other words all hair is different, understanding that will eliminate ignorant comments and promote self-love.  Accepting how natural hair looks and feels will help an individual to appreciate it better.

Appreciating natural hair promotes self-love.  I believe everyone should appreciate all forms of natural hair whether it's straight, curly, kinky curly, locs, wavy or in braids.  People all over are wearing their hair in its natural state. They are in our communities, jobs, schools, on the internet and on the streets.  Knowing, accepting and appreciating what natural hair is helps prevent harsh judgment towards one another and it promotes self-love.


Well guys that's all I have for you today.  Thank you everyone for reading my blog.  Stay happy, natural and healthy.

Love,
