About

I was going to university, had just moved out on my own, and had no money for anything extra.  So I had to stop relaxing my hair.

Instead, I started braiding my hair and adding extensions.  Easier on my wallet (or pocketbook for all you Yankees out there), but hell on my poor little edges.  I started losing my already-thin hair and panicked.  I had to do something, but what?

Then in about 2009, I stumbled across richeau on YouTube, who was talking about Oyin Handmade, Karen’s Body Beautiful, and other hair products made with natural ingredients.  I was immediately drawn into the “Team Natural”  world!  I started learning how to embrace and care for my hair just as it is.

I haven’t looked back since…
