My Story:

I’ve experienced hair breakage, unlimited split ends, dryness, multiple big chops starting over after adopting hair routines that did NOT work. To top it all off, postpartum shedding was no joke after my third pregnancy. My hair has been through it all.

When I first started my curly girl journey to embrace my natural hair in April 2021, I had NO IDEA what was ahead of me. But I wanted to embrace my natural curls- something that I had never done before. I was a “straight natural”. I got my first “deva cut” (paid $200) and was on my way.

My hair was short, from cutting off all the heat damaged, but I was ready for change. I was given product suggestions and those are the ONLY products I used for 90 days because why would a professional stylist be wrong about the BEST products to use to get my hair long and healthy? 90 days turned into a year and a half.

As time went on, my hair was growing, my curls getting curlier and recovering from heat damage, yet my ends were still breaking off. My hair was frizzy whenever I straightened it, and didn’t look good. The styling practices started to take a toll on my hair. I was doing all the right things- at least what I thought were the right things. Yet for some reason I wasn’t retaining length. I wanted long hair! I had gotten 2 haircuts at this point to give me the curly shape I wanted, ($200 a piece) and the health of my hair was not what I wanted.

I continued to get trims, so my ends didn’t always look fried. In June 2022 I decided I was done with all the fluff, the “expert natural hair advice”, the high priced deva cuts, the sole use of fancy salon (and expensive) recommended products that left my hair limp, dry, and my ends split. I started over yet again with drug store products to grow my hair back with a routine that WORKS.

I hung up the wash n go routine. And in January 2023 I got a haircut at Supercuts for $18 hoping to get a fresh start. I then got another cut ($18 from supercuts) March 2023 which really set me up to have healthy ends. Although I did not like how my hair looked, I was determined to get rid of all the damage!

My hair has only gotten healthier ever since I stopped the wrong practices from professionals, random natural hair sources, & my hair has grown the longest, healthiest, it’s been.

I now teach other women who are struggling with growing their natural hair, how to really achieve length goals, retain moisture, avoid breakage, and absolutely LOVE their natural hair!

If you’re struggling to grow your hair, find styles that truly contribute to length retention and nothing seems to be working right I am here to help.
