Source I am exactly 2 years, 7 months, 4 weeks, and 1 day in deep into this natural hair journey....thanks to the little ticker that keeps up with the exact time frame!! LOL I actually started transitioning in 2009. My hair should probably be down my back by now but I'm definitely happy with the scissors. I can truly say I LOVE being natural!! The versatility is awesome and did I mention blogging about it all is not too shabby either?   My advice to newbies: load up on all the freakin youtube videos, facebook pages, twitter feeds, instgrams, Google+, tumblr pages, and blogs in the beginning..why?...because its fun!! Once you do that, oh and get over being a Product Junkie (I'm still in recovery), figure out what works for YOUR hair. There is no magic curl making product out there I promise...unless you want a Jerri Curl :) Remember...Its just hair. Take good care of it but don't go all nutty!   I think I'm going to focus a little more on growth for awhile ...

1. What is your name and where are you from Tiana, Tuscaloosa, AL 2. Why did you decide to go natural and how long have you been natural now? I had a lot of breakage in my hair due to perms and me not taking care of it. I’ve been natural for 1 year and 9 months. 3. How did you transition? I grew out my perm with sew-ins and cut off the last 3 inches of perm that was left. 4. What is your regimen? I wash every week. I regularly wear twist outs, the classic Afro puff, and sew-ins. 5. What are 4 products you use regularly? Pink Oil Moisturizer, carrot oil, olive oil, and Eco Styler Gel. 6. What advice would you give to someone transitioning or to a new natural? Keep your patience and dont ever go back to a perm! 7. Where can we find you? Instagram:@one_unique_girl  https://www.facebook.com/tiana.lavender.7?fref=ts https://twitter.com/Im_Uniqu eT
