Natural in the City With Kasalina

I photographed the wardrobe stylist Tisha Brown. She’s a seasoned wardrobe stylist of 15-years in the entertainment industry who has worked with accomplished artists such as Alicia Keys, Usher, Mos Def, Pharrell Williams, Paula Patton as well as corporate clients MTV, L’Oreal, EA, Visa, ESPN and countless others.

On today’s hairstyle…
My curl is natural so I just wash and go. I wash my hair daily with conditioner only (Tresseme) so I can achieve great definition. I don’t use any curling products in my hair because ultimately it just weighs me down. The only product I use regularly is an anti-frizz serum for sheen (Garnier Fructis). I apply it once my hair is 80% dry as oppose to while it’s wet. When it’s really humid, I use John Frieda’s Frizz-Ease Straight Fixation Smoothing Créme. I used to use this product when straightening my hair, but as a de-frizzer for my hair, it works wonders! I apply a small amount once I towel (pat) dry my hair, so that it’s still damp. Total air dry. I don’t use driers any more, and to prevent a lot of frizz, I don’t use heat at all.

On the best thing about being natural…
No fuss. I spent so much money on products and gadgets to make my hair straight, now I just wash and go.
