      I wear my hair in a short natural cut now but throughout my life I've worn press n curl, cornrows, braids, relaxers. I feel very free wearing my natural hair now.

      Idk if guys can contribute but… I used to cut my hair very short but now I like to let it grow out into a fro since I’ve been grown and only get line ups occasionally.

      I have a girl, she is 6 and tenderheaded. When I do her hair, it can take days. i will go so slow. We blow out first to minimize tagling in between detangling. All her styles are part 2's of the previous style because we recycle parts to minimize tension.... basically, our entire journey together is teaching her to love her hair without hurting her. (It's not always a success but it's a work in progress)

      Whew. It’s been a journey. I started getting perms for as long as I can remember. I finally decided to go natural in college to really love on myself and my hair. It’s been like almost 8 years and I’m grateful to have found a rhythm and routine with taking care of my hair and growing it. Slowly but surely my hair is healthy, fuller and growing longer. It’s a journey but I love my hair and I’m grateful.

      Good morning. I admire both of these women. I can relate. I grew up in Baltimore, Maryland but there were at least 4 generations or more before my time. Only the strong or crazy survived Baltimore but it made me the woman I am today. My church kept me grounded and gave me a scholarship for college. My family came from Cambridge, Maryland and South Baltimore. My dad’s ppl are rural Deep South Carolinians. When blacks were able to moved West, we moved to West Baltimore. Baltimore was so crazy we moved from Gwynn’s Falls, to Dickey Hill and by 1970’s we moved to Northwood. Maryland was so expensive we all lived as an extended family. During the summer if I was not at the Rec’s summer camp, I was sent to Columbia, Maryland, the Carolina’s, and holiday visits to the Maryland Eastern Shore.
