This was a great issue. So many types of hair addressed in the magazine. I just wish they hadn't put Kelly on the front with her wig looking like that. I'm pro wig, but that looks like it's not even on her head.
Got my copy and OMG I was actually featured in the "I Love My Natural Hair" section… wooot wooot!! They captured my big ol' hurr at the GOC when Nikki was out here in LA 🙂
This magazine is so worth picking up. I was so frustrated with all the black hair magazines only having styles that required relaxers and maybe a page in the back for natural hair. Essence really went indepth into how to take care of natural hair without downing women with relaxed hair. It also showed some really awesome styles. I loved it.
Congrats Nikki! YAY!!! I will have to pick up this issue to check it out. I'm also happy to hear that naturals are represented very well. Again, congrats to you Nikki! Well deserved!:)
That's so awesome! I have been trying to find this dang magazine everywhere! I am going ot have to go to the "blacker" neighborhoods to find it. 🙁 Good grief, Essence should be everywhere!
I subscribe to Essence so I received this but haven't read it yet. Glad to hear we naturals were represented well and that Nik got an honorable mention! ~KF519

I will definitely swing by Walmart and get me a copy of this. It's good to see so many naturals being showcased :).
Oh have you ladies heard or seen this Gorgeous Natural haired Singer named Elle Varner. If not here she is with J.Cole on her song.
