Awareness on natural hair care has grown exponentially in the past 2+years in our country; I’m not complaining though. I finally can relate to ladies with the same struggles that I’m facing & get solid advice; I’ve even achieved more length! I’m especially enjoying the awareness for the need of hair care products targeted specifically for NATURAL hair for black women and as a result I found some great naturalistas & online stores that you can shop from. I decided to share with you ladies as the shelf’s of Clicks, Dischem, Checkers, Shoprite & the likes don’t always stock what we need…happy shopping ladies.
