1. How long have you been all natural (without any chemicals remaining in your hair)?
I did my Big Chop Dec '09 after 9 months of transitioning.
2. Speak about who or what inspired you to go natural.
I've wanted to go natural for a few years prior to transitioning, but wasn't ready to let go of my long straight hair. I dreaded starting over. However, that all changed during a visit to Minnesota to visit my family. I visited my mom and she was rockin' a fro! It was fierce. Being in Chicago, I hadn't realized she had been natural for about 6 months. I also wanted to be an example for my 5 year old daughter.
3. What are your top 2 hairstyles since going natural?
I almost always where a braid/twist out or a big chunky fro.
4. What's your weekly routine and 3 favorite products used on a weekly basis?
I have not established a routine or found my must have products. I'm always on a hunt.
5. Speak about your biggest supporters since going natural.
My families and friends and all my natural sistas who compliment and acknowledge my natural hair whether they know me or not.
Wow Alicia is completely and fiercely rocking her chunky fro! She owns it. I love how she said that she was inspired by her mother and now she's an inspiration to her daughter. Natural hair can be rocked from generation to generation!
P.S. regarding your routine everyones hair is different. Check out my routine and some of the other Women's hair routines that are featured on this site to see if you can find the products and/ or routine that works for you. From the looks of your hair, whatever you're doing, it's definitely working!
Just speaking...
