Welcome to The Natural Consumer!
From Left to Right: Kyla, Sarah & CJ
We are a group of Sister/Friends who met at the University of Dayton and one of our many connections is that we are all embracing our natural hair! Through the years we have sought each others counsel for hair, makeup, exercise and other tips. We have decided to come together and share our experiences with you!
We came up with the name The Natural Consumer at a Sister Circle meeting a couple of years ago. Sister Circle was a support group at UD that met monthly. We discovered that regardless of the topic, we ALWAYS came back to talking about hair. Many SC sessions would end in me pulling out my box-o-products and talking about what was working for me this month. We decided at one of these meetings that we would blog together as a group as a way to journal our passion for hair.
While each of us may bring you hair tips and tricks that are working for us, we also will focus on topics that are near and dear to our hearts. I will be sharing with you hair and organizing tips. Kyla will share hair and makeup tips, and finally Sarah will be sharing exercise and food tips. We will occasionally bring in a guest blogger from time to time! Check out my sister in-laws recent post on her Blog I Am Elise about finding the right makeup and embracing her natural beauty.
Our overall goal for this blog is to empower other women. Too often we are defining ourselves by mainstream society, comparing ourselves to images in the media that tell us our hair, body, etc isn't straight or skinny enough. The three of us are each coming into our own as women. Two of us are married, and I have a child. We hope to share stories that help women who are in need of advice as they are exploring their authentic selves! Check out the Phoenix Rising Collective! It is a non profit group focusing on self-esteem education that will inspires and empowers personal growth. Come Join the Collective!
Please share your questions and comments as we look forward to sharing with you!
Until Next Time!
