Things I Learned While Rocking Relaxed Hair, Natural Hair, and No Hair At All

A Little Color Goes a Long Way

Feeling like your hairstyle is a bit…flat? With every hairstyle I’ve ever had after high school, I’ve tried to add a fresh tint that helps it pop. When I was relaxed rocking layers, I was trying to be a red-head (and later, a Cherry Cola purple-head). When I cut my hair off and it started to grow back, I went with a copper brown color (but my mom liked to call me Carrot Top…). When I had a short Nia Long in The Best Man cut, I dyed it blue-black, and now that my hair is locking, I plan to throw some green in their soon…yeah, you heard right. Sometimes a little color or some fun accessories can help reignite the excitement you have about your hair when you’re going through times and stages that are making you less than thrilled.

    that last one is so true, about putting your hair away and just allowing it to grow.

    Could not agree with the “every product is not for everyone”.  I tried to stay clear of being  a product junky.  But, had to find the right ocmbos.  At least I knew whatever didn’t work on my hair seemed to always work on my 7 yr old daughter hair.  So the products wasn’t a waste.  My hair screams for mositure.

    I didnt get ads maybe the author listened

    The ads are so annoying! “They” already know this, but at least they will know why I won’t be returning to this site. The sad part is that I wanted to support Madame Noire. :(

    Well…. the first page was interesting. I refuse to click 7 times to read a short paragraph each time!

     Learn to be pleased with everything; with wealth,
    so far as it makes us beneficial to others; with poverty, for not having
    much to care for; and with obscurity, for being unenvied.

    I’ve gone from natural hair to relaxed to natural to texturized and back to natural. I would have loved to read the entire article, but I refuse to click through all those different pages. Can everything PLEASE be put on 1 page or 2 at the most? I’d then be more inclined to read the entire thing.

    I used these same techniques for the hair on my, “NUT SACK”!

    • L-Boogie

      LOL! That is funny.

    • Lsmith

      You’re an axxhole

    I remember how my aunts used to rock their afros, halter tops, shorts, and stacks! I am so in love with natural Black beauty.

  • lala

    couldn’t go beyond the first page. i’m not clicking through 7 pages for an essay that could probably fit on 1 or 2 pages. what a pathetic ploy for page clicks

    • NTG

      Same thing I said…well that’s how they make they’re money.

      • NTG

        *their

        • Kgirl

          Completely agree, the more pages, the more ads they can put on their site.

    • Pfeiffer87

       You’re complaining about clicking 7 times?! Do you know how little energy is required to click? I guess the same thing goes for smiling? using the loo? standing up? getting out of bed? You guys need to stop complainin about the clicking, makes you sound like a bunch of couch potatoes.

      • Smacks_hoes

        Pages take super long to load sometimes! This crap could have all been put on 1 or 2 pages

        • repaermirgeht

          This website is a business. The more clicks the more ad revenue. It sucks but telling someone how to run their site when you can just get off it, is insanity.

      • Stay in your lane boo ……

        I wish I could click your stupid comment away! Click click ………………
