If you’re thinking about returning to wearing your natural hair, as it is, for all to see…It’s a great idea! Just have an initial knowledge of the types of products you may need as there’s so many of them out there now. You’ll learn how to take care of your hair by plaiting in three or four, curling in one or two, bobby pins may become your best friends again, but the curl will last for days in different variations – and you won’t have to spend so much time at the hair salon.
You can damage natural hair if you pull and tug it as you would your weaved or relaxed hair so learn how to keep it feeling soft to the touch – and if you have highlights or colour to cover grey, special attention is needed here.
Other than that, enjoy your kinks and curls when you run your fingers through them and when you notice others admiring them – there’s nothing like it.
