Meet Tanisha! She is rockin' her natural is Florida. She says: "I am Afro centric Sista from Florida; I’ve been natural since 2005. I’ve gone from premed hair, did the big chop in 2005, wore an afro for about a year and a half, did dread locks in 2007 and from locks decided to go natural in 2011. As of February 2011 it took me 5 ½ day to take down the locks. I decided one day that I wanted to show my natural beauty, don’t get me wrong I loved the locks nut they were hiding my natural beauty. I love the fact on being into my native roots and having a natural state. Since taking down the locks I’ve had a hard time with my hair being course, frizzing and a lack of body (it was just rough) until I really research what it really means to be natural. With all that being said I’ve started using only all natural products such as Baking Soda, Apple Cider Vinegar, Mayo, Vitamin E Oil, and Eggs. With using these products as my cleaning and condition agents has given me some satisfactory results with the first week of using them. Being natural has made me feel more beautiful weather I wear a afro or a twist out I look stunning. So to all those who’s afraid of the transition trust me you’ll love the outcome of being natural. The photos below are the most recent and before"

I live on Eco styler, Cantu Shea Butter and my essential oils like tea tree oil, olive oil, aloe oil and grapeseed oil. I love my twa and how diverse and creative I can be with my hair. Natural hair is so versatile and I wish more people would jump on the bandwagon. I dress my twa up with eyeshadows and HUGE earrings. Youtube has been my diary for all that is natural. I encourage every female and male to consider this natural movement. NATURAL GIRLS ROCK !!
