I LOVE MY HAIR!! This IS a love story, not a hate story, not a struggle story (well maybe a trial and error story!) My hair story began before I "big chopped" June 30th, 2004, and I've been infatuated with all things natural since. I'm sharing to encourage, to support, and to captivate the minds of those who are curious...being natural is a wonderful sensation!

I'm on BLENDED BEAUTY!!
Hi guys!! I'm back again with another guest post on Blended Beauty, this time discussing the importance of developing relationships within the natural hair community. Often times it goes unnoticed the amount of support you really need when going natural...there's nothing like having a great curlfriend to help you through the good, the bad, and the ugly! Check out the post here!
How have your curlfriends encouraged you during your natural journey? I'd love to hear your stories :)
Have a great day!!

COMING SOON: National Natural Hair Meetup Day
Hey guys, have you heard? I know I was a bit late on it, but apparently this National Natural Hair Meetup Day has been in the works for MONTHS!! Here's a brief snippet about the event...
The National Natural Hair Meetup Day is an annual one-day event. Its purpose is to allow the opportunity for women across the country to meet in their own communities while networking, sharing and meeting (virtually) other women across the country participating in meetups on the same day. Natural hair meetups are events designed to share information, techniques, inspiration and products to aid individuals in their natural hair journey.
The creator and founder of the this brilliant idea is Ms. Adeea Rogers, a beautiful North Carolina natural and the blogger/vlogger behind The Trendy Socialite. This idea has blossomed into a national day of recognition, inspiring naturals across the states to participate in the celebrating the beauty of being natural. Sponsors are stepping up in a big way too, offering products and discounts to participating meetup groups.
The Houston edition of the NNHMD will take place May 19th, at 3pm at Pappadeaux for those naturals who can attend. Both Nappy Love Houston and Naturally Happy Hair will be represented, as well as many other naturals in the Houston area, so make sure you RSVP as soon as possible so we can reserve appropriate amount of tables.
You can find out more about the NNHMD on the website, and you can also search for local events in your area here. I'd love to hear of your experiences on National Natural Hair Meetup Day too, so please feel free to share if you are attending any events!

World Natural Hair Show...Picture Time!!
I realized as I created the album on my Facebook page that I have a LOT of pictures...seemed like I took more than what I actually did, but it's still a crap load of pics for a 5-6 hour span. I'm not going to post them all here, but I will put the link to the album here. For inquiring minds, here are a few of my favorites...enjoy!!

I'm sure this isn't giving the best idea of how many people there were trying to get in, but this is only 180 degrees! |
Yes...the line goes ALL the way down, then back up again like we're at Six Flags |
She was absolutely the fiercest person I saw this entire event |
