By Any Means Necessary!!!

Kinky, Kurly, Naturally Me...It's not only about hair...it's also about the journey! It's food that feeds the mind, body & soul for all women of color. For me, it's more than how I care for my hair.  It is a holistic journey... one that is helping me to learn to love myself as a WHOLE person.  I am learning no matter how pretty someone else my say I am, I have to believe it MYSELF!  I am learning that just because someone my perceive me as being well put together..I have to believe it MYSELF!  We as black women, have been beat down by negative images and demeaning comments for hundreds of years.  I want to nurture and empower women...mind, body & soul.  If I have to start with our hair, so be it...but it won't end there!!!!

If you have colored your natural hair...check out Makeup by Rachel O!

If you are considering coloring your natural hair.  Rachel O is the way to go.  You can follow her on her blog or subscribe to her youtube channel. I have colored my natural hair and have been studying other natural hair sista channels for tips on maintaining moisture and healthy hair. I  have found her to be very, very, informative, clear and concise.

Dead Prez "The Beauty Within"

I had posted this video on Facebook when I did my "big chop" in November of 2010. I had to share it again, not only because I am natural, but for the simple fact it portrays black women in a positive light. With so many negative and derogatory images of black women, it is a breath of fresh air to see a black man pay homage to a black woman with dignity and in good taste.
