In reply to the discussion: ****AA Group**** Natural Kinky Curly Wavy Hair. [View all]Kind of Blue
(8,709 posts)If I had known that there was such a huge online community, I wouldn't have been so initmidated to wear my fro after the 1st big chop. I found that the texture charts are really not that important in the long run, but a must for learning exactly how to care for natural hair. And I found that, and I bet it's the case for a lot of people, texture is not uniform all over the head. I've got my dad's coils in some places and majority of mom's kinks, 4B to 4C.
I love how the notion of "good" hair flies out the window when black women get together for the best ways to care for themselves. That's the best part of the natural revolution, everybody from relaxed to kinks are there for one thing, to help each other out.
Curly Nikki: Life & Hair Therapy comes to mind, or was it AfroBella, the first results when I Googled natural hair a few years ago. The girl has since sold her site for millions and millions after just starting blogging about her journey. http://www.curlynikki.com/2008/10/my-hair-story-pt1.html
Who would have ever thought natural hair care would be a boom for black entrepreneurs??? So good!
