Styling ur T.W.A

After the BC some women have dreams of how they will style their newly natural hair. Even though they may not be able to see what the true texture will be they have seen their share of pics of long, short, and colored natural hair. But they haven't yet realized that they may not be able to achieve those same hair style.
Even if u don't have the texture that u thought u might have it is okay because there are still things that u can do with that teeny weeny afro.
The first step is to fine a good moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. U want to make sure that your hair is well moisturized. Buy a good daily moisturizer. There are a few shampoos and conditioners that I like( Garnier, Herbal Essence, L'Oreal). When it comes to moisturizers i stick with the old faithfuls(grease, Pink Oil, Shea Butter). Even though i like these and they worked well in my free form natural hair I have to say that u have to find whatever works best for you.
When it comes to styling a t.w.a u have to think simple. You may not have that much hair so there is no real need for a lengthy daily routine. You may only be able brush it, comb it, and add a moisturizer to define the curls.
During this stage accessories will definitely be your best friend along with a nice color. Earrings and light makeup might also help complete your look.
The most important thing is to have fun and embrace the beauty that comes along with the freedom of natural hair......
