That’s about the gist of my story until in September of 2009, I decided to let my natural hair grow out — after more than 15 years of having chemically-straight, trips to the salon every week, easy to manage, but don’t ever get wet, sit under the dryer for at least one hour hair! Don’t get me wrong, I loved my hair. . . I’ve always loved it. But believe it or not, I love my hair even more natural than I did when it was permed — well, that is for now. I cut my hair short (as in an Angela Davis afro) in April of 2010. And so now, I am on a journey to discover my natural. . .Premium Grade Hair!
