Sweet Inspirations Boutique: Calling All Natural Hair Women

Hi All,
I just want to say how excited i am about the "New" movement of women to grow and wear there hair natural.  I have been natural for over 12 years now but i started out wearing dreadlocks.  I loved my locs, do you hear me!  I loved my locs and everything that came with it.  I enjoyed the styling and the super duper fast growth of hair that i experienced in such a short period of time.  About 4 years ago i cut my dreadlocks off and started to wear my transitioning short,curly, fro(a whole other blog).  Now I have to be honest, going from locs to straight out natural was scary for me.  In between cutting my locs and where i am now, i did dabble in a texturizer and weekly press and curls from Moms(Who can press your hair, like you got a perm...Yes Sir!) But since the past 4 years, i have been straight up natural and very little press and curl.  I love where i am with my hair now.  I understand that i have that "Good Hair".  I have a personal curl pattern formulated just for me.  I can bantu knot my hair, flat twist, single twist, roller set, rod set, blow out afro, or curly afro...whatever!

Not only that but it is such a new camaraderie with natural hair women.  There are tailor made events, groups and networks that cater all to women who have natural hair.  We can share and form relationships all based off of our love for our God given hair type.  Something that used to divide women, is now something that is bridging allot of women together.  I must say that I love it!  I myself have joined groups such as Boston Naturals and many, many, social network groups and pages that cater to woman with natural hair.  And i am not just talking about black woman, although most of the groups are predominately black women...that is a whole other blog!!!  Can I just say, I AM IN LOVE!  For every woman on the fence and feeling like "Natural" hair is not their thing, just give it a try.  Really, it's just hair!
I pray this is a blessing to someone and if you want, comment or email.  Thank You!
Blessings,
Shervonne

Sweet Inspirations Online Boutique: My Favorite Natural Hair Styling

My favorite natural hair styling method has to be the flat twist out.  I have found that with a well done flat twist out you can wear your hair in a curly free flowing style, a funky up do, a stretched curl roller set look and a flat twist can even aid you in a creative bun.  I get so much versatility with my flat twist outs.  It almost makes me say "Where have you been all my life"!  I have attached some photos to show you what styles I have achieved with my flat twist outs.  Thanks for reading.

Sweet Inspirations Online Boutique: My Natural Hair Winter Regimen Tips

Sweet Inspirations Online Boutique: My Natural Hair Winter Regimen
Hi All,
So as we all know that winter weather can be hard on your natural hair.  Especially when it is as cold and snowy as it has been this past January/February 2014.  I wanted to share with you some tips on how I keep my natural hair moisturized and healthy this winter. 
Tips
1. Moisture is the biggest problem that people with natural hair face so everyday I mist my hair with a spray bottle that is filled with equal parts water and coconut oil.  Sometimes i add other oils to my spray bottle i.e. Castor Oil, Olive Oil, Tea Tree Oil etc

2. I have a oil bottle that i have filled with equal parts Water, Castor Oil and Tea Tree Oil.  I use this bottle especially to apply its contents to my scalp.  I have found that my scalp loves these oils and to avoid wasting the oils in a spary bottle, I put them in a oil bottle.  Once I have applied the oil bottle contents, I then massage my scalp for 2-3 minutes.  Being careful to massage my scalp until i feel a warming sensation.  I feel that this really helps everything to get into my scalps pores.

3. I apply my very own Gracie's Hair Butter to my hair.  Gracie's Hair Butter is great for retaining the moisture that i have just put on my head due to the fact that it is based with Shea Butter and Essential Oils.  I am careful to put Gracie's Hair Butter on my hair and especially on my ends to seal them, since they are the most vulnerable part of your hair. 

4. Once i have applied all of these moisturizing ingredients to my hair, I then take a wide tooth comb and comb my hair in a semi protective style such as a pushed back ponytail or bun.  I have found that my hair does not react well to protective styles such as braids, long lasting twist etc.  My hair needs daily moisture, combing and detangling. 

5. After i have put my hair in a pushed back ponytail or bun, I then put on my satin scarf or cap.  When i have to venture outside in the winter, I am careful to leave my satin scarf or cap on while i wear whatever hat i want to for the day. 
With natural hair, you always have to be mindful of what will help keep your hair moisturized and protected from breakage or damage. 

This is my winter natural hair regimen and i hope that someone will be blessed by it.  To Purchase my Gracie's Hair Butter, go to www.ebay.com/usr/sweetinspirations011
