Hi! My name is Kimberly, I am a 26 y/o Latina residing in a small suburban town in Central Massachusetts.

Boy’s Hair vs. Girl’s Hair

My husband and I were recently discussing how we plan to cut our son’s hair for the new school year. Hulk, as my son prefers to be called, has curly hair that is very similar to my own. I love when Hulk’s hair grows out into a curly top, faded on the sides and back. But, my husband insists on his favorite cut, a low-cut Caesar. While talking to my hubby I realized that men have a world of hair care of their own. I have always known this to be true from watching my father care for his hair as … [Read more...]

My name is Nika. I’m from Monroe, Louisiana and I’m currently living in Shreveport, Louisiana. How long have you been natural? I started out natural until the age of 10 yrs old.
