Going Natural

Hello!!!!!

So, I just recently finished reading the book Going Natural How to Fall in Love with Nappy Hair by Mireille Liong-A-Kong. I have to say, at first I was not a fan of this book, I actually had to start it twice. However, once I really got to reading it it ended up being a very good book. The writing at times isn't awesome, but this may be due to the fact that it was translated from Dutch. Anyhoo, she has a lot of really good tips for people who are transitioning or thinking about transitioning, so if this is you I highly recommend this book. There are also some helpful tips for those of us who have been natural for a little while already. The book includes a good section about ingredients (starting pg. 30 if you get the book). The section about ingredients highlights sections that are thought to be good and bad for your hair. She also has a good section about natural products that are good for natural hair (starting pg. 40). In addition to her book she has a website that will allow you to start a natural hair care journal-which is a very good thing to have if, if you haven't started one, it is highly recommended-so check it out, http://going-natural.com/. And definitely, think about starting a journal if you don't already have one even if it's just a small one or something you type on your computer. It's really nice to have something to refer back to about which products you liked or didn't like, and to know what worked and what didn't quite work especially if you experiment with a lot of different products and hair styles as some of us do.

So that's all I have for now, keep sending comments and let me know what you want to know about!!!

Tootles for now,
