• Have you always been natural? If not what made you go natural?
  No I've not always been natural . I went fully natural in March 2016 but I stopped relaxing my hair in 2015 . I was inspired by the journey of other naturalistas such as CravingYellow and I was also intrigued by the science of natural hair . Furthermore , I've always admired afros . Whenever I'd get my relaxer touched up , I hated how flat my hair would look and did everything I could to have some volume .
  
  
  

  My first twist out ever!

  
  
• Your hair always looks so healthy, are you on a healthy hair journey? What inspired you to start one? I am definitely on a healthy hair journey .  I've always understood that when it comes to dealing with anything , one needs to understand how the system works . Once you have that down ,you're good to go . Same goes for hair .Once I've got the health of my hair in check , the rest comes easy . 

• Do you have a hair routine? How easy was it getting into a regimen, knowing the right products etc? Yes I have a hair routine but I wouldn't say it's fixed . It was quite easy to find a regimen once I started off because I did a lot of research as I was transitioning to natural . My regimen however , is constantly evolving . I just go with what Fluffy ( my hair) needs at the moment .

• How do you fit hair care into your busy lifestyle? Haircare for me is therapeutic . My fro is my Friday night date once every 2-3 weeks . The rest of the time , I rock low manipulation styles that can transition into cute wearable looks . My go to style is two strand twists .  If I were in my hair every single day I'd not have time to do anything else .

• Do you believe in such a thing as bad hair? Do you believe that African/ black women have good hair? The only "bad" hair is unhealthy hair . It's a blessing for us to have such unique hair growing out of our scalps . It doesn't matter if it's thick , fine , coarse , curly , wavy , coily or kinky . All hair is beautiful .

• What have you learnt about healthy hair care that you would love to share with African women, especially those who want to start a natural hair journey? It's hard to reduce all I've learnt to one statement . "Good" hair like everything else in life , comes to those who work for it . You must be patient , willing to learn and always embrace your hair for what it is .
  
  
• What goals do you have for your hair? My goal is to take my hair to the next level in all aspects : health, length , volume , thickness .. you name it . I just want to give it the love it deserves .
  
  
• Do you do your own hair? What is your favourite natural hairstyle and why? I do my own hair except when it comes to braiding and blowing it out for trims ( which I want to be able to do for myself ). My go to style is twists . They are easy and fuss free plus they provide a base for a bomb twist out .

• Do you have a hair idol? Who and why?
   I have so many hair idols . Bubs Bee is one of my favorites . Her hair is soo thick and luscious . The likes of NappyFu , GreenBeauty , Ambrosia Malbrough, JourneyToWaistlength , WestAfricanBaby and CravingYellow are a few examples . 
• Did you always believe that you could grow a huge Afro? What changed your mind? I've always believed I can grow a huge afro but 20 inches of hair wasn't something I even thought about . Once I discovered natural hair forums , I realized that I can do anything with my hair .
  
  
• Is there a product you can’t live without?Aloe Vera juice ! My hair drinks it up ! It'll forever be a staple in my regimen .
  

  My shrunken fro

• Do you think natural hair is expensive to keep?  No I don't . I've had the pleasure of trying out different brands . We as Kenyans are privileged to have affordable quality locally made natural products . Natural hair doesn't have to be expensive unless that's one's preference . 

• Do you have hair goals? I'm a length and volume chaser right now . I just want to see how far my fro can grow . However , Fluffy's health will always remain paramount .
