Why do you love your hair?

I love my hair because it is versatile. I can wear it up, down, straight, curly, braided and wrapped. Strength is something my hair and I have in common. I can relate to my hair.

How do you take care of your hair?

1. I moisturize my hair every other day.

2. I deep condition at the end of every week.

3. I wrap my hair up in satin/silk every night before bed.

4. Every now and then, I get my hair braided to protect my hair. (Braids are also great for my busy lifestyle.)

5. I ask my niece to play in my hair!

Tell us something you've learned in life.

I have learned to be still, and wait on the Lord.

Tell us something brave you've done.

I have chosen to live life not just for me, but for the betterment of others, so they might do the same for someone else.
