With the onset of the harmattan, aka dry season, i knew that i did not want to leave my hair out as the dryness will just drive me nuts. I made the decision to install a protective style and i happen to see a couple of marley twists on instagram which served as the inspiration i needed.
So whiles prepping my hair for the twists i decided to briefly document how i prep my natural hair before getting an installation. I realized most ladies do not do this and sometimes failing to do so causes more harm than good. This post also doubles as my wash day post.

Here are the steps briefly outlined below:

Hi Naturalistas,
So i recently posted my 8 months natural photo and quite a few people asked me or commented about the progress of my hair. Seems there is an interest in going natural but the info isn't enough. So this has inspired me to write this series, Healthy hair, which would focus on the very basics when it comes to healthy hair care, relaxed or natural.
