Good Read: InStyle Magazine's Natural Wonders

If we're friends on Facebook, then there's a good chance that you saw my status update last night about having just read the BEST article on NATURAL HAIR ever in InStyle's Special Hair Issue.


I'm mean, I was excited to see an article on natural African American hair in this particular magazine, but an article of this caliber just blew me away. Actually, the 126 page glossy provided a plethora of info on African American hair...especially, considering the fact that we aren't necessarily their target audience. From note-worthy products to use, like the best detangling comb for curls (pg. 50) to steps on how to dry your curls with a diffuser (86).


In the article, "NATURAL WONDERS", interviewer, Kahlana Barfield had a chance to talk to three of my natural haired inspirations, Yaya Dacosta, Solange Knowles and Corinne Bailey Rae. Each had the opportunity to tell the story of their natural hair journeys and then gave a little insight to their own personal hair routines.




By the time you read this post, I'll, probably, be headed to a couple stores to pick up some new products, like coconut oil and L'Oreal's Ever Creme line (the Deep Nourishing Masque and Leave-In Conditioner were mentioned all up and throughout the mag). I'm already two clicks away from ordering Carol's Daughter Black Vanilla Shampoo and Hair Smoothie (also mentioned more than once in the mag). So, you guys should definitely head out and pick up this special InStyle issue to read all the deets. It's definitely worth the couple bucks it'll cost.

Here's to good hair days,
