Sometimes I come across a skill I lack and my first thought may be, “I’ll never be able to do that.” And if I don’t try, then bam, there it is. I won’t be able to do it. But with patience and practice, [almost] anything is possible! So here are a few […]
^My hair had a mind of its own and I did not mind one bit! Well, I made it to Essence Festival 2014 and maaaaaaan oh maaaaaaan was it a treat!! I didn’t even go to the nightly Superdome concerts (crazy, right?) yet I had a wonderful time! No, really! […]
HAIR + DYNAMICS = HAIRNAMICS [youtuber youtube=’http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2BXiUlfjPI’] Please read the information on the site in order to make an informed decision for yourself. I read about the ingredients, the FAQs, and looked at a couple reviews. I felt it was a good fit for my lifestyle. For the record, I […]
You couldn’t tell me I wasn’t cute! I had my hair flat ironed shortly after going natural in 2010 and haven’t gone back to straight hair since. One reason is because it would take too doggone long if I were to attempt it myself. I don’t even blow dry my […]
I must, must, must get better with posting to http://YouTube.com/MyNaturalRealityTV. Soon and very soon, I will!!Anywho I had some ask what I did to my hair a couple week’s ago while attending my sister’s graduation. SHOUT OUT TO THE VALEDICTORIAN OF THE NUMBER ONE HIGH SCHOOL IN THE STATE!! #siblings I’d washed […]
Grab a group of twists, pin ’em down. Grab another set, tuck ’em under the first set. Repeat! [youtuber youtube=’http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=po0UZB1LNh8′]
[youtuber youtube=’http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UknCjGPNbE’] I started by washing with Motions Naturally You Moisturizing Cleanser. This shampoo does not seem to be highly favored among some naturalistas in my circle, but I rather enjoy it! I kept braids in as I washed. Products used: I wore my hair in a beanie for […]
I watched a video on Soft Sheen Carson’s YouTube page and was truly inspired to give it a try! [youtuber youtube=’http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXfrahwFnvs’] It may look like intricate styling, but I promise once you have the pony tails, you just roll, tuck, and pin! Click on any photo to enlarge it. […]
This is probably no big deal to most of you but I have a THICK head of hair. I never thought I’d be able to bun without first blow drying my hair. Even when washing my hair and sectioning it off to condition, a solitary ponytail is not an option. […]
…you’re not welcomed here!!! These photos were taken during November 2012 and talk about pure devastation!! Yes, this was in a spot that I could easily cover up…BUT a bald spot!?!? No woman wants to deal with that. I feared the worst. I thought maybe it would remain this way […]
Or can you? This is a conversation I’ve had with many women of color. My personal feelings about it are no, you may not. Duh. Please refrain from walking toward strangers and touching something that does not belong to you. Hands will likely be smacked. Kinky hair need […]
I’m not really a fan of fall (or winter and sometimes not spring for that matter…). However I have to say I love to wear collar shirts under a crew neck! It makes me feel a bit like a tomboy when I don’t dress it up, but it’s still oh […]
I’ve been enjoying LACEnatural products ever since the owner, Candera Walker, gifted me with a couple goodies! I told you in a recent post that I’d post more about products I like, so here’s me keeping good on my word! 😉 My favorite product of hers! [youtuber youtube=’http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLli3KyWxyU’] One day, […]
I don’t post enough about my hair products…but I’ll try to do better just for you! 😉 I went to the Black Hair Kitchen Expo in DC and purchased a few items (as you can see!)…here’s my video review for the Koils by Nature products I have been loving since […]
I’ve gotten great feedback about my most recent style and instead of just sharing them with my Facebook fam, it was suggested that I post them here! [youtuber youtube=’http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLaO-z1OCFA’] Inspired by Tamika Fletcher of Natural Resources Salon [youtuber youtube=’http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVs7Tlt7ZCs&list=PLdGNlogAwizom5_QDMBTh9TwyDL3EQ9we&index=9′] [youtuber youtube=’http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSr5tqjW4SU’] [youtuber youtube=’http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLeEfrkd0pk&list=PLdGNlogAwizom5_QDMBTh9TwyDL3EQ9we&index=11′] View more pictures in my Facebook […]
**In my first year of being natural, I had a major amount of growth! Thanks to coloring and damaged ends, I wound up cutting several inches during 2012. I have vowed to pay more attention to the health of my hair in 2013 as to avoid cutting so much! In […]
Well, not MY actual BIRTHday, rather my site’s birthday!! One year ago I created My Natural Reality with the vision of expanding my writing skills, growing my networking skills, and publicizing the skills other exude! As a thank you to those who have supported by clicking a link, purchasing […]
