NATURAL HAIR

I am wearing red wax print dress (borrowed from my girlfriend who brought it back with her from the South Africa), New Look sandals, Chanel bag and Fendi sunglasses.

How do you feel about natural hair, naturalistas or so called modern ‘fro?

The other day, I had an amazing talk with three beautiful women Juliane (@mymaracuja), Marietou (@MICI) and Melissa (@melissazibi) about color, ethnicity and what it means to be black, mixed or white. As I mentioned before, one of the things that I consider the most visible, besides our skin color, is the hair. I really admire women who wear their hair in a natural way- without chemical straightening or a weave. I straighten my hair with Brazilian keratin and mix them with clip-in extensions to add length or volume. So as you can see, I am classic example of someone who admires somebody but does not have enough courage (or self-acceptance). And it is funny as I am always telling people that they are beautiful the way they are. Here you go! I think I should talk about this more broadly in one of my next articles.

I really like this video, that I found on Facebook, with 11 no heat natural hairstyles. Isn’t it amazing how much you can do with natural hair?
