Colorism
“This is a graphic that depicts the issue of colorism. Black people try to divide themselves among who is lighter than the other or darker than the other. However, we are all black people. Are roots all travel back to Africa: Black is Black is Black.”

My weekend in pictures…
From Drab to Fab
diligentcustodian asked: Nessa, dear, I'm beggin you to tell me which method you used to start your locs, the products (if any) that you use, and how you maintain/retwist them if you do them yourself. So beautiful!
Hey! No need to beg I will gladly share my “secrets”. I had my friend start my locs, and she used the comb coil method. For products… I wash my hair with Nature’s Gate Herbal Shampoo (you can find at Wal-Mart). It’s sulfate-free, but it doesn’t leave my hair feeling greasy like some sulfate-free shampoos. I retwist my locs using Carol’s Daughter Loc Butter. I love the way it makes my hair look shiny and it feels light-weight. Now that I have some hang time, I retwist my hair using the palm roll method, and I go about 4 weeks before I twist my hair again. I hope this information helps you on your journey.
