What is naturalitism?
- Naturalitism (nach-er-uhl-lee-tiz-uhm) is a word I coined, combining the words natural and elitism (the belief that rich people are superior to poor people).

My Washing Routine

I thought I would share my washing routine. I wash my hair once a week.
- I take out my previous style and separate my hair into six sections.
- I wet my hair and add some conditioner or oil for slip.
- I detangle each section first with my fingers, gently separating the strands then finger combing, then with a wide-toothed comb, and finally, with my BASS brush. I twist each section as I finish.
