Meet India….
1) Please introduce yourself? What would you like the readers to know about you?
My name is India. I am 22 years old. I’m a Virgo! I have been natural for 2 years and I love being natural!
2) What do you love most about being natural? Have you had any challenges?
What I love most about being natural is the versatility. I can wear my hair in braids, twists, a fro or a weave , it all depends on how my mood is!
When I first became natural, I was very insecure about my hair. As I tried more styles, I grew to love being natural. My main challenge has been keeping my hair moisturized for my hair is extremely dry. I deep condition and give myself a hot oil treatment once a week to combat this issue.
3) How do you care for your hair? What’s your go-to style?
It’s summer, so I’ve been wearing my hair in protective styling (Havana twists). Normally, I deep condition and hot oil treatment once a week. I also do the LOC method (water, oil and a sealer) on my hair each night. I mainly wear my hair in a high puff or a twist out.
Wearing my hair natural has made me much more confident. At first, I had superficial confidence but after becoming natural I had confidence in myself and all of my flaws.
5) If you could give some advice to your “pre-natural” self, what would it be?
If would be “Girl you should have did this a longgg time alone!”
6) Is there anything else you’d like to share? Any hobbies or special projects?
I like to write, I love reading and I love to model. Also, I hold a BA in Communications and am currently a Marketing Coordinator for a government agency in Baltimore.
