Ladies, natural hair doesn't have to be a boring affair

The versatility of black

Lucky for us black women, we can change our hair whenever we feel like. If we feel like getting the big chop, we can rock short hair. We can also rock our hair natural, have it braided into box braids, faux locks or cornrows, rock crochet weaves, etc. Still, at some point, you can get bored especially if you’re not used to having one style on for too long. But did you know that you can accessorize the hair to get a different look?
