Can you share some of your favorite experiences from starting the blog? I absolutely love connecting with my readers! It makes me feel great to open up my email from a bride sending me her wedding photos and requesting that they are shared to inspire more NaturalHairBride’s. Or to receive an email from a recently engaged naturalista sharing how grateful it is to find our blog with so much inspiration. What’s so amazing is that many naturals want to wear their curly hair on their wedding day but many of the nay-sayers are family members that have bride-to-be’s second guess themselves. We reinforce their love of being a NaturalHairBride with both style ideas and wedding resources.
