Yes, that’s right my hair is a mixture of 4b and 4c my heritage is in West Africa, Ghana, Togo, Benin, Nigeria and my hair is natural, soft and BSL (My hair reaches my bra-strap). Don’t worry if you don’t know all the terminology, it is all explained in detail in the book J. If you are like me, you want very long hair since you were a child. I had my hair relaxed from the age of 12 and although when I was a child my hair was quite long, after the relaxer my hair hardly grew past SL (Shoulder Length). That was until I discover the black hair community in 2007. I was so excited by all the things I was reading, the techniques, the testimonials, the recipes and more, I started dreaming again the dream I had when I was a little girl and I pretended the towel on my head was my hair. So one day, I decided to start following all the sound advice I had now collected for over 6 months. I started in July 2007 and by July 2008 my hair reached just below APL. Having reached this goal and celebrated in style, I started having other ideas as I kept reading all that was available online at the time. I decided to go all natural, It was a hard decision as I didn’t know how to go about it, should I cut all my hair off? Well, no way! I’ve always had long hair all my life and was not prepared to change that, I couldn’t imagine going to work bald!!! My last relaxer was in November 2008 and I’ve never looked back, I used a lot of growth help some with more success than others and a lot of techniques and I made it. We are now in 2014 and my kinks are BSL, beautiful, soft and shiny. I have 6 years of experience dealing with my own hair and helping others with theirs, I’ve been blogging on various subjects ranging from ‘How to look after mixed race children’s hair’ to ‘Is it Better to Transition or Big Chop?’. I’m so happy to have contributed to so many success stories. Now, I’m ready for your success story. Are you ready?

Download or read book Twisted written by Emma Dabiri and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2020-06-23 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Kirkus Best Book of the Year Stamped from the Beginning meets You Can't Touch My Hair in this timely and resonant essay collection from Guardian contributor and prominent BBC race correspondent Emma Dabiri, exploring the ways in which black hair has been appropriated and stigmatized throughout history, with ruminations on body politics, race, pop culture, and Dabiri’s own journey to loving her hair. Emma Dabiri can tell you the first time she chemically straightened her hair. She can describe the smell, the atmosphere of the salon, and her mix of emotions when she saw her normally kinky tresses fall down her shoulders. For as long as Emma can remember, her hair has been a source of insecurity, shame, and—from strangers and family alike—discrimination. And she is not alone. Despite increasingly liberal world views, black hair continues to be erased, appropriated, and stigmatized to the point of taboo. Through her personal and historical journey, Dabiri gleans insights into the way racism is coded in society’s perception of black hair—and how it is often used as an avenue for discrimination. Dabiri takes us from pre-colonial Africa, through the Harlem Renaissance, and into today's Natural Hair Movement, exploring everything from women's solidarity and friendship, to the criminalization of dreadlocks, to the dubious provenance of Kim Kardashian's braids. Through the lens of hair texture, Dabiri leads us on a historical and cultural investigation of the global history of racism—and her own personal journey of self-love and finally, acceptance. Deeply researched and powerfully resonant, Twisted proves that far from being only hair, black hairstyling culture can be understood as an allegory for black oppression and, ultimately, liberation.
