When it comes to having natural hair there are some myths and misconceptions we are un aware of as  Africans. After doing some research, you will realize that not everything you were told about maintaining your natural hair was true. And here are some straight points of the false myths. Natural hair is very strong Natural hair can't be combed Products are only made for black or white hair Natural hair is only for "political soul sisters" "Petroleum" and "Mineral" oil are good for natural hair (they are found in black hair products) Natural hair can't grow long Natural hair is difficult and unmanageable. Relaxers promote growth and make hair more manageable. Trimming makes natural hair grow You shouldn't wash Natural hair too often Water will dry out natural hair

I have finally made it to one year of being natural! YAY! It has been a long  journey for me. A tough one indeed but we have made it and we have come a long way. My natural hair has managed to grow longer than i expected. I gained 5 inches for my first year. I didn't expect it to grow that long because I had trimmed it off 3 times the following year. My natural hair was an exciting journey indeed. I hope i have been a great inspiration for people out there. And i hope i encouraged many women to go natural. Check out my length check video.
