Welcome




Hello and welcome all to inside a woman's mind. There are various reasons I wanted to create my blog. First because I have always wanted to discuss the millions of things that run through my head a mile and minute, second because I am going natural and wanted to document the transition period which could be anywhere from a year to 24 months (we'll just have to see) and third because I am prego with my third child so I have so many feelings and thoughts I would like to share. So I thought it would be nice to have a place to share them with people who may be able to relate.



A little about myself:


My names is Christi and I am beginning this journey to natural hair because I want my hair to be healthy. Since I was little girl, all I can remember are perms. I have no idea when my mom starting putting perms in my hair but I'm sure I was like 4 or something, since mom didn't really know how to do hair and thought perms were the answer. For along time I thought perms were the answer too but about a year ago I realized that perms were hindering me. In a quest to learn more about hair and how to have beautiful long hair without wearing weave I learned valuable tools like keeping your ends trimmed, using deep conditioners once a month and etc. I tried all these things for a while and my hair began to grow. BUT THERE WAS STILL ONE PROBLEM:: "SHEDING" and I don't mean a little shedding, but a lot of shedding everytime I touched my hair or layed on a pillow my hair shedded. So I made the choice to go natural May 16 which was actually my last perm.


SN: My plan is to discuss natural hair and new things I learn as time goes on. However I have other interest such as marriage, pregnancy, beauty, fashion, parenthood, fitness, food lol everything.  So if there's something you want to discuss just send me an email @ ladyhart08@gmail.com and we'll get right on it.
