Natural Queen of the Week: ManeCoarse (winner of give-away)



Well, I've been natural since 2001.  
I decided to go natural after I noticed the hair around my temples was extremely thin and damaged. 
 Around the time that I was taking notice of my badly damaged hair, I had a cousin who came to visit me from out of town and she had two-strand twists in her hair. 
 Her hair was gorgeous.  I was in awe. During the time of her visit, I had tracks in my hair.
  I commenced to questioning her immensely about her hair, and to follow up, after she left, I jumped on the computer to research natural hair some more.  It was then that I discovered nappturality.com
 I stayed  up until the wee hours of the morning on many of nights reading all I could on natural hair.  
After about a month, I went to a salon and had the big chop done. 
 I wore every style imaginable for five years, and then in 2006, I decided to loc. 
 I wore my locs for three years.  On May 31, 2009, I decided to take my locs out one by one.  
I am about to embark on one year of having my hair out of locs.  
I have been learning my hair all over again, and happily, my journey continues.
