Terra asks:
If you had to convince someone to go natural in one word, what would that word be?
CN’s answer– Real Diva! (made me think of Boondocks…real divas don’t follow directions!) Coming up with one word is hard!
Your turn ladies!

Can you post something on natural gray hair, and what the best braids or twists
CONVENIENT!!!! No more sitting in the hair dresser, you are your own stylist.
Respect
Ide have to say -Exposed- in a good way- that is one of the words i used to describe when i initially bc'd. Kinda like: THIS is me- take it or leave it. And everyone in my life close to me has chosen to take it with open arms.

I hope this isn't cheating considering this isn't a real word. It's a spin off the name Beulah. BeU and "lah" to me means love. Its a name and a statement all in one. Perfect for this post, I think.
But If we need to use a real word I would use, multifaceted.
versatility
Me
Cause nobody else in this world can have hair like Me =)
