Hola chicas!
Fierce Fridays are back by popular demand! The images below are of CN readers at their flyyest…at work, on the town, and with the fam. Showing us all that natural hair is not a fad, it’s a way of life…an extension of our beauty! Click on the images to enlarge them:

Getting ready for a performance at my schools International Carnival! I cornrowed the front and picked out some large braids in the back that I’d let dry overnight.

This is a braid out, I love the way braid outs look, but hate the time it takes to achieve the look. I wasn’t going anywhere, but to work.

Sunny North Phoenix- the girl’s and I gathered for a Sunday Brunch to celebrate a sister friend’s promotion to VP- we looked around and were surprised ourselves that every one of us is natural…there are several ladies pictured that were not natural when we initially met…very cool! We had so much fun the people around us wanted to join our party!

I was about to head to the mall, and of course it involved buying hair products. I used raw shea butter (as base) and Ecco Style Olive Oil Gel on damp hair and I topped it off with moroccan oil and Kera Care oil sheen spray (p.s. it’s a humidity blocker and it really keeps my hair from looking dull all day long).

I’m two weeks shy of my 5th month of being natural! Time is flying!! I usually keep my hair in small twists and do twist outs at the end of the week but today I had an epiphany!! I can do pig tails!! Keeping it casual and cute this Friday =)
I’m heading to work in this picture. I’m a student though. It’s a second day twist out and I used shea butter, homemade leave-in conditioner (sometimes all I need is a spray of water!), and a little gel on the ends before untwisting in the morning and separating the strands to fluff the style.

**If you don’t see yourself today, rest assured that you’ll be up next week! I post the first 10 I receive.**
To submit:
Send in your favorite picture with a caption detailing where you were (or where you headed to), along with a brief description of your hairstyle, to nikki@curlynikki.com. I’ll post several each Friday. Be sure to use ‘Fierce Friday’ as the subject line!
Later Gators!

Do u have older ladies with graying hair mine look a mess
Well every comment cant always be positive, and this wasn't a negative comment that this person stated. I feel that some of the photos compared to others that have been posted in the previous months, the styles are really good. Sometimes you have a hit and miss, but again ladies what works for one won't work for another, and these styles are unique but lets not put down a person for saying their own honest opinion.
Everyone looks great! Loving the hair. I enjoy seeing all of the different looks and styles, I missed FF!
This site is always positive Anonymous "I like pics etc…" We are enitiled to our own opinions but the negative tone which is foreign to this site is blatant. I think each woman posted a photo in which they felt beautiful shame on you for casting a cloud over that.
I like pictures 1,7,8 and 8 the best. The others are so so, but thanks again for letting us view your photos ladies.
Hey thanks jlowman1,I was actually in Essence this month(May) for that photo 🙂
Alright Steppin out….I like the puffs and those shades
Everyone is ROCKIN the natural! Steppin out…you betta DO IT!!!!!!!
Everyone's hair looks great! I especially love those braids on Shaquaila's Frohawk!
