Loc Naturalista

Part 2 of my Loc hair journey. The beginning of my natural hair journey. During this time, I was incredibly insecure about my TWA. I had shaved all my relaxed hair off one day out of frustration. And I bought a wig to help me feel confident. I also wore braids during this time.

Part 1 of my Loc hair journey. I had relaxers from early childhood until I was maybe 20-21 years of age. I never really liked the look of my hair with a relaxer. I hated the flat look, I hated the lack of volume. And I HATED going to the salon and having to endure that relaxer burn. 😔

Brunch cruise was FUN! I love my city!

I am missing Paris. The food in Paris was just so amazingly good. Fresh pastries and breads. Beautiful views in every part of the city. I had lunch daily at the park near the Eiffel. I really miss this beautiful city. We’ve only been home for 4 days but I already want to go back 😔🤣

First international trip to Paris. I highly recommend traveling to this amazing city. There was so much diversity in this lovely city. And the diversity was celebrated here. For a black American, this was a much needed trip. I felt embraced rather than hated or feared. I enjoyed the food, drinks, the people, and the culture of this unique city. I will definitely return.

All smiles today! Making big travel plans!

This is fun! Voila app.

Before the locs, this was maybe taken in 2016. My natural hair took so much time and energy. I'm so glad I decided to get my locs. 2 years in, and still loving my locs. They allow me to be stress free.

Enjoy everyday.

I had an amazing facial the other day! Keeps my skin looking flawless! I recommend dermaplaining. It removes the dead skin cells and leaves the skin feeling and looking brand new. Instagram @locnaturalista
