Top 4 natural hair styles for those bad hair days

Every natural diva will try out a hair style to come to find that it did not come out the way the hoped it would. Then you have to scramble to find a quick fix to look presentable. Well, look no further my natural divas. Here are 4 ways to fix that natural hair flop and still look fabulous.

1. Braid out came out too tight? Perfect for a fake pony poof- This has happened to me many times. You braid your hair at night to rock and cute braid out the next day only to wake up looking like medusa. Well, this can be easily fixed. Try the fake pony poof. Start by spraying the sides and back of your hair with a water and oil mix. With a paddle brush, brush the sides and the front upward to a desired height. Slip on a tight elastic band that will not get tangled in your hair and push it back in the front of your hair and up in the back until you reach your desired look. Fluff it up and go about your day looking fabulous.

2. A hat is a quick fix for it all- So you have wake up and your hair is a hot frizzy mess. Don’t worry, just grab a hat. Knitted beanies are cute and can easily cover up any hair disaster. You can rock this look by covering all of your hair if it looks completely tragic and throw on some awesome statement earrings. Or you can leave out a fro bang in the front that you have tamed with some SheaMoisture Curl Smoothie and still throw on some funky earrings. The cool thing about knitted beanies is that you can find them anywhere, they come in any color imaginable, and go great with the cold weather!

3. Try the turban look- Another bad hair day and you have run out of styles. This is the perfect time to get creative. Go dig out that colorful patterned scarf from the bottom of your drawer and tie your hair up in a retro turban. Throw on some hot lipstick and a retro outfit to match. Turban tying instructions are way to complicated to write so here’s a link to one of my favorite youtubers that explains in fairly well. http://youtu.be/5nrghV-xW-Q

4. Wash and go’s fix everything- If you feel like your hair is just to far gone or you simply don’t have the time to fix it, smother your hair in conditioner and do a wash and go; they always look great!

Welcome!

Welcome to the world of being young, fabulous and natural! I’m embarking on a natural journey and want to invite the world to come along. On this journey, I will be testing out fabulous products designed for natural hair, trying out new hairstyles, cooking up some delicious hair recipes and making some FLASHY hair accessories and much much more! As a young fabulous natural diva in training, I’m going to be sure to recognize my fellow divas! Let me start this journey by telling you a little about myself and why I decided become a natural DIVA! I’m a 22 years young ambitious chicka. I started transitioning in December and I recently did my liberating BIG CHOP in April. I must say, it was amazing. I imagined sitting in the chair, pouring sweat and crying my eyes out at the sight of a kinky curly mini-fro. I was also petrified that I wouldn’t be attractive anymore, I would look like a boy and everywhere i went people would stare and point in awe! Then I woke up and actually did the BIG CHOP and realized that I LOVED IT!!! And since I loved it, and pranced around like I loved it, everyone I’ve encountered has adored it. I decided to go natural because I was just sick of living the lye and being unbeweavably broke keeping up with extensions. One day I decided that I was ready for a change. And I did. So strap on your fabulously bedazzled seat belts my natural divas and get ready for this incredible journey to liberation!
