Hi all,
Sunday May 13th 2012 from 11am - 7pm is a date to mark
on your calendar! Naturally United will have an event on this day and
it really shouldn't be missed! The day isn't just about haircare, but also
about how to look after your skin, your diet and nutrition and body
image. So it's a day packed with workshops and discussions to help you
in being a healthy and happy you.
There will be a wonderful range of vendors at the Naturally United
event and you can purchase quality skin care and hair care products from them;
Besides workshops, seminars and vendors, there will be gift bags and giveaways! Come along for a big giveaway of the Huetiful Hair Steamer (which is not available in the UK)!
For more information regarding the event, tickets and directions visit the Naturally United website.
Hope to see you there, happy hair journey! ^o^
Hi all,
This post is really about an article I've been reading an article on Curly Nikki, 'I don't have the time...'. The writer of the article believes that some women make natural hair a job.
Going through online haircare forums, social networking, blogs
and the like, I have encountered people with a similar belief as the
writer of the article. I found this to be quite interesting because I
have encountered people who believe that *I* do 'too much' with my hair.
I think what needs to be appreciated is the fact that we are all
different. We have different hair textures, different hair porosity,
different hair densities, regimens, schedules, product availability etc.
For this very reason I appreciate and respect the fact that some people
will take longer to do their hair than others. Some people will do more
to their hair than others and so on. Everyone has different needs and I
do too.
I cannot run a comb through my hair. I can't go to sleep with an
afro without finding big tangles the next day. I cannot detangle my hair
in 15 minutes... but I am happy to spend the free time that I have
doing my hair. It's enjoyable to me. It's my 'me' time besides eating
nice food and pampering my nails and skin.
If you can do your
hair quicker than I can with only two products, more power to you. These
differences should be celebrated - it just shows how diverse our hair
is and that there is no set formula or way to take care of our hair.
The
writer of the article was very articulate in what she said and while
some people will agree with what she said, I am on the fence about it.
Yes I do most of the things on the list, but only because it makes my
hair care so much more simpler and I get rewarding results from it.
Do what works for you!
Happy hair journey ^o^
