About Kinnks
January 4, 2009 we posted our first entry, My Natural Hair Story. Lady Kinnks presents, the Psychology of Natural Hair. A blog is born! Before taking on this enormous task, I struggled. Does the internet really need another natural hair blog? I decided to invest the time into creating a blog to speak on the natural hair experience rather than the “how to”. Race, age and gender influence my experience, but it is amazing how different your experiences are by just having natural hair! Can you believe there are enough stories to full a blog? Lady Kinnks blog is year old today!! Within 2009 our Kinnks Directory grew to over 400 links all dedicated to natural hair! We also successfully opened our shoppe, with three types of Kinnks Tees.

Last Wednesday I posted Work Hair pics from my camera phone.
Well, I changed it up yesterday. I washed and blow dried then let my hair sit/air dry for a few hours…. I can never get it completely dry.

Yesterday I attend the Happily Natural Day here in Richmond, Virginia. It was a blast with a lot of vendors, and people with the same goal of loving yourself!! I made three trips to the event. The first I forgot my camera and ran back home. I finally took some pictures. Then I had friends come in from Philadelphia, so we went back to the Natural Hair Day. Then I dropped my camera—I can’t get it to work :o(
The past few weeks I’ve been obsessed with the ‘fro hawk. Every time I check out our Links Directory, I am graced with the ‘fro hawk with the twist outs. I meet Ms. Evonne at the India Arie concert and she was rockin’ a cute long ‘fro hawk. Then Ms. Sarenzo Beads showed me her invention for the ‘fro hawk on youtube. If you search the ‘fro hawk in youtube you get over 200 videos.That was it, I took a few days off of work, so it was a great opportunity for me to do something different.
Hot Combin’…
A year plus ago, I had an itch to change up my hair via the hot comb, but needed a trusted referral.
After getting my hair pressed in the past, I would see patches of different textures from burnt hair. After applying water, it just wouldn’t kink back up. To re-‘fro, I would cut much of my hair off. Understanding my concern, Ms. Stylist pressed it, but not too hard. When my hair maintains its straightness, I know my coils have been disrupted. This is the main reason I do not press.
