"My hair journey began summer of 2011, I've been natural all my life but I never cared for my hair it was extremely heat damaged from all the trips to the hair salon. So I decided that I would take baby steps, so I would never feel like I was forcing myself to stay away from heat. I wore wash n go's for months and then in January I started protective styling. Throughout my journey I've used various different products, but the ones that I truly love are Organics Olive Oil Shampoo and Replenishing Conditioner, Cantu Shea Butter and Olive Oil Eco-Styler. I have a lot of hair so I get a wide range of reactions when people see my hair. Living in New York there are a lot of strange and different people, but yet my hair never fails to amaze people. I've had people touch my hair with out permission, people follow me around bombarding me with questions on what I use, I don't mind at all though. But then unfortunately I've had people doubt me and wither I'm lying about my hair. People always assume that I'm mixed or wear Afro wigs , which is obviously not true. My advice to other women that want to go natural is to first find confidence within yourself , people are going to try to put you down and tell you things like "girl you need slap a perm in that hair", but you cant fall into temptation if this is something you really want to do. Your hair might not look amazing everyday but you have to be confident and realize that this can only lead to healthier hair and a healthier lifestyle." ~ Romona

Name: Roshell Davis
Style inspiration: I pull inspiration from different places. What inspires your fly style: My daily style is inspired by my mood & destination. Combination styles are my fav.
What makes you a Natural Beauty: I rock my hair confidently with hopes to inspire other women and girls to do the same.
Favorite Looks: I love to mix edgy and classic pieces.
How do you like to rock your natural hair: Right now my go-to style is a high puff. I've been natural for almost 11 months. As I get more length I experiment with different styles. I've done a twa, frohawk, braided updo, ponytail updo, twistouts, box braids and french braids.
What advice would you give to others thinking of going natural: Go for it! Make sure you research, it makes the process much easier. Going natural has been one of the best decisions i've made. Hearing my 4-year-old niece exclaim that my hair is like hers is priceless.

Q: What is your hair story? What kind of hair styles have you rocked, before embracing your natural hair?
A: I've stopped using relaxers during my second year of uni, I didn't like the way my hair looked with it so I decided to stop. I also wanted to see what my real texture looked like. So I decided to inform myself, I've started looking at blogs, magazines, videos... to know which products I could use and which styles I could wore. I didn't want to do a big chop, so I transitioned for about 2 years, I mainly wore weaves and every time I took one of I would trim my hair until I reached a size which I thought was alright to cut off all the relaxed ends. Now, I've been fully natural for 3 years and I'm not going back!
Q: What are three products you can't live without for nurturing/styling your hair?
A: I can't live without coconut oil, Kera care edge tamer and castor oil. I love oils! I use coconut oil for moisturizing and shine and castor oil for hair growth. Kera care edge tame is the best edge tamer I've found.
Q: What would you say to someone who's thinking about embracing their natural hair, but scared about being rejected in various parts of their lives?
A: Just do it! There is so many things you can do with natural hair, you might be surprised. If you don't like it you can still go back to relaxers.
Q: How can we keep up with you and your journey?
A: You can contact me via twitter @angele_abena.
