Update | 18 Months Natural!


It's hard to believe it's been a year and a half since I made one of the biggest decisions of my life and rejoined Team Natural. I say rejoin because I've realized that when we decide to rid our hair of chemical processing and hindrances, we're not 'going' natural. We're returning to our natural state; We're reclaiming our own perceptions of beauty and basking in what makes us unique. I'm so proud to be a part of this team! When I started this journey, I was scared out of my mind. Here, in the spur of the moment I'd just chopped all of my hair off and could not turn back - even if I wanted to. But as scared as I was, I'd never felt so fearless! This big head and it's little hair felt worthy of whatever I set my eyes on, and it must have shown because others began to notice a change in my attitude towards myself and others. You know that saying, 'when you look good, you feel good'? That, my friends, is the truth. Fast forward 18 months later and I've definitely come a long way! Check out this video where I update you on my natural hair journey, as well as what's in store for The Natural Mee!

[Tutorial]: My 3 Month Natural Twist Out


I finally got the hang of the twist out around 3 months after my Big Chop!If you read my last post, you're probably wondering how I went from finger shingling to twist outs all in the same month... so am I! I just don't know where all this hair came from!

At the time my hair was extremely thick but not quite that long yet, so finding that perfect sized twist was vital for the success of this style...

Of course I had to do a turorial to share with my YouTube subbies (:




Hope this helps someone out there!

[Tutorial]: Finger Shingling my TWA


I've just about reached the 4-month mark on my natural hair journey and I couldn't be more pleased with the way things are going so far...

But let's backtrack a bit. My hair has been growing like a Chia pet, so I've actually had to change hairstyles about twice since my last post. After 3 months, my Combo Wash and Go method was no longer working for me, so I had to begin dabbling in the art of shingling! Lol... Have no clue about what shingling is? Check it out for yourself (=






I shared this video with a few of my co-workers and they all had great results!! I hope this can help someone else (=

[Tutorial]: The Combo Wash and Go



Although I just started this blog, I've already began documenting my natural hair journey via YouTube...

In this video, I share my method for styling my 1 month old Teeny Weeny Afro (from co-wash to finish) using a combination of Eco Styler Olive Oil Gel and World of Curls Activator Gel.


Products Used:
Organic's Olive Oil Deep Conditioner
Creme of Nature Argan Oil Leave-In Conditioner
Eco Styler Olive Oil Gel
World of Curls Activator Gel

Before I decided to go natural I did A LOT of research on styling a TWA. I guess I just wanted to make sure that no matter what my hair texture turned out to be, I would have a method for styling it... I hope this video helps someone else [=
