Crowning Glory Coils and Kinks

Sometimes we can find ourselves tiring of our natural hair journey.  This is a second installment of my "Hair Inspiration."  I have scoured the virtual world to share with you some inspiration.  Long, short, wavy, coily, kinky and nappy, natural hair expresses the soul of the woman who it adorns.

The front and top have a looser curl pattern.  My usual regiment for my wash n' go is to wash (or co-wash), condition, leave-in, and then apply the gel or styling agent of choice. The shrinkage is about 75%! Picture By:  longhairdontcare.com As seen by this picture, hair in it's curly state, reaches comfortably at the top of her shoulder.
