About Me
'When I went Natural, I wasn’t trying to be political, rebellious or afrocentric. Just Myself.' Why did I start this site? Before creating Natural Expressions, I started a blog entitled ‘NapturalDroc: My Natural Journey’ just to keep updates along the way of my journey. Posting styles, lengths, and products along the way. However, after getting so much feedback about my hair; (people wanting to go natural as well or asking questions about my hair) I just decided to make it open to the public. I want to encourage others and this gives me the opportunity to interact with naturals all over that just want encouragement or advice! You want to know a little about me? I am 23 years old. Graduated college with a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science/Web Design and 4 months later began my career as an Administrative Computing Specialist. I love graphic design and plan to study more into that field one day! I am very creative at times and express myself via blogs, poems, or short stories. Music is my sanity and what motivates me. I am a true believer and year to have a better relationship with God and in my faith.
Why did I transition to natural? Growing up, I thought relaxed hair was the only way to be beautiful! I used to get relaxers faithfully every 2 months and I was a true ‘Just For Me Kid.’ My sister would do my hair and you could not tell me anything! It was the second half of my freshman year in high school that my hair began to really break off. So after years of damage, eczema, and breakage....I decided to end the Tug-a-War with the relaxers and begin the journey of transitioning to natural hair! It wasn’t just the breakage that encouraged me to transition; I actually loved natural hair but was afraid of what I would look like with natural hair. Ever since I started the transition (October 2011), I have become more confident, happier, and at peace with my appearance!
