Hair Inspiration
I have been natural since 2007 and it has been a journey exploring and getting to know my hair better. Being a Seattle girl, it is truly enjoyable to be able to swim and walk in the rain with no worries. I learned so much about how to take care of my hair and different style I could do with my hair.
But at times it has been tempting to go back to relaxers. But after chopping off my relaxed hair twice because I could not stand it's look and how limp it was, I never went back. But I always hated relaxers. I cried when my mom did my hair as a child and I hated when they called me 'tender headed.' as if it were some awful flaw. And I just wanted my hair to look like all my white friends and the women I saw on TV.But whenever I took out my braids and my hair was a huge main and I loved it, only to hate it once it was relaxed again... I digress
What kept me motivated to take care of my natural hair were youtube videos of natural girls as well as fashion pics I saw of beautiful women with my type of hair. I will add some pics that kept me inspired. Feel free to share your natural hair picks or picks you have found Hair Inspiring.

I've chopped my hair off on and off my whole life but about 5 months ago transitioned into cutting all of my hair off and decided to just shave it all of instead complete fade style lol, so it's been one month, two weeks, and 3 days since and my hair is growing pretty nicely. I'm always looking at photos of girls with natural hair in so many different styles, here's some photos of hair that I dig aka hairspiration.
