Goodbye "CurlyLikeMe" and Hello to "Queenofthe4s"

Today is an exciting day! Not only is it my birthday (my 3rd Annual 25th birthday), but today is the re-birth of my baby blog. I have been pondering this for some time now, and I feel like there is no better day than today. I have officially been relaxer free for one full year and can totally tell the difference in the health of my hair.

The reason for the name change of the blog is completely random on one hand and is truly fitting on the other.


One day I was reading through comments on CurlyNikki's blog and ran across another link to tightlycurly.com. Terri, the creator of the site, has biracial hair and has her own method of taming her curls which she plans to release in her new book, "Curly Like Me." I will admit that I was a little depressed to see that we both somehow came up with the same name. But to be honest, she obviously came up with it first, and I don't want anybody to get it twisted....I am not a "biter" by any means of the word, so I decided to change the name of my blog out of respect to her.


I think the new name is more fitting of me and my hair. I don't really have "curls" as much as I do tight coils and cotton puff patches that make up type 4hair. After a year of experimenting, I feel as though I am now (more) in control of my hair and it does what I want it to for the most part. It's only fitting that I am the queen of my two textures :) ...."Queen of the 4s"... I like it!!



You will notice that most of my pics up until this point don't really reveal my true identity, and I feel now is the time to put an end to that so that you all can get a better feel for what is going on with my hair. The intensity of this blog will increase with weekly and monthly segments as I set aside more time to devote to researching and editing material to post.





Happy birthday to me and to Queenofthe4s!! :)

Smooches,

Natasha
