Introduction

My name is Amia Renee’ I’m 29 years old from Baltimore Maryland. I’m a certified Makeup Artist trying to paint one face at a time to the top. I have been natural for a total of 22 months and counting.

What or Who inspired you to go natural? Did you bc or transition?

The summer of 2013 I found myself going through a heart break. I wanted to change a few things in my life and my hair happened to one of those changes. I guess you can say it was my Angela Bassett in Waiting to Exhale moment. I transitioned for 7 months and 3 weeks exactly.

Top three products and prices.

Carols Daughter Hair Milk Styling Pudding $12.00

Organic refinded Coconut oil $8.29

As I Am coconut cowash cleansing conditioner $7.99

Fave go to hairstyle.

After my bc I wore protective hairstyles for 10 months. My favorite protective style is yarn locs, which I did myself. My favorite style to wear on my natural hair is wand curls.

If you had to give your hair a name what would it be?

Actually I did give my hair a name. It’s Flo, because she flows in the wind.

If you hair is colored what do you use to do so?

Recently I colored my hair with three different box coloring systems in a month Shea Moisture Hair Color System in Bright Auburn, Clairol Textures & Tones in Red Hot, and Dark and Lovely go intense in Spicy Red.

Sum up your natural hair journey in three words.

Exciting, Fulfilling, Rewarding

Any advice to the natural newbies?

Hang in there! In the beginning it can seem overwhelming but trust me it will be worth it.

What was favorite compliment someone has ever given you on your hair?

When people ask me if my hair is a wig or extensions. It’s like saying my hair looks too good to be real.
