After 6 years of being Natural, I decided to CUT MY HAIR OFF!! It only took me a little over 2 years to finally find enough "courage" to grab the scissors.

 

I had inspiration boards, screenshots of cuts that I liked, and didn't realize until last December that "Wait I've been saying that for 2 years..."⁠ ⁠ & honestly, I don't regret it. Sometimes it takes 2 years. And that's okay!! The most important thing is that you embrace who you are and feel comfortable with yourself.

In today's podcast, I'm updating my natural hair journey and also shared new products that I'm loving at the moment!

Imagine having a child that has this one characteristic that is nothing like you, curly hair. In this episode, we get a fresh perspective from a dad of two biracial daughters, whose hair is super curly and thick. This has brought on a new dynamic of how to understand and care for their kinks and coils.

So today we talk about Sew-Ins, and yes I just got my first one! I have always been on the edge about sew-ins because I felt like some people used it as an excuse to neglect their hair or to not embrace their natural hair pattern. And while that can be true for some I'm starting to see that it can be a great protective style like wigs or braids. In this episode, I chat with you about the pros and cons I am experiencing so far. Have you ever had a sew-in? You probably have; share your thoughts about it with us on Instagram @proudncurly: https://www.instagram.com/proudncurly/
