Things change in our natural hair journey all of the time. Learning about our hair, what works best for us, and experimenting with new things is all a part of it. Kori is back on the show this week giving us an update on her journey. Last time all we hoped for was to take the leap and do our big chops! Now a little over a year later she is loving the cut life and not looking back! Catch up with us as we chat and sip on some yummy cocktails! (*Bonus - You can sip with us! Kori posts her drink recipes on her Tik Tok: http://bit.ly/cocktailswithKrecipe)

If your hair is anything like mine was before I big chopped then I know this video will be helpful. I dealt with fairy knots, single strand knots, and whatever else you call them pretty much on the daily. In today's episode, I share some tips that helped me with those problems along with shedding, breakage, and detangling my thick natural hair.

What kind of dialogue are you having with your hair? Is it full of self-love or of things you don't like and wish you could change? It's time to take an audit...

Welcome back to the Proud N Curly Podcast!

In today's episode, we talk with Nohemi about her natural hair journey. She tells us about how her journey was influenced by her Dominican roots, her experiences moving south, and how the work field has impacted her journey. She also shares insight on her spiritual relationship with her hair and we can implement that in our journies as well.

Sooo I cut my hair again!

**See the full Episode on Youtube: https://youtu.be/lNz3sBUQvrw

I will be showing you how we DIY a subtle tapered cut on my natural hair. This more of a vlog because this was a trial and error process. If you are looking to cut your hair yourself or with someone you know the process might look like this, but its totally doable!
