What are your interests?

“Natural health, hair care remedies, exercise, and current events.”

What are your favorite natural hair products?

“”Coconut oil is good for all hair types, but I’ve been switching it up using vitamin E oil, which you know is good for bruises and stuff, but it encourges hair growth and rebuilds damaged hair foilicles. Then, I use this beeswax end sealer. I have this Mixed Kids Conditioner and Catnu products. I don’t know which I like better. I use Miss Jessie’s everything like their “‘Leave-in Condish”‘, “Pillow Soft Curls” and the “Coily Custard.”

Do you do anything special with your hair?

“I’ve been making conditioners with avocado and other stuff.”

Since you’re obviously into natural hair, how do you feel about men and the natural hair movement?

“The natural hair care thing is a resurgence in the idea that Black is beautiful, and I think every Black person should respond well to that. That’s like several conversations we could have about that.”

Where can you usually be found?

“At the gym or hanging out with family and friends.”
