This past Saturday, I had the pleasure of working my first event as a "Promotional Model" a new part time job of mine. The event was the annual For Sisters Only which was held in DC at the Washington Convention Center. I was a "Qream Girl" lol, and if you don't know, Qream is Pharrell's new liquor which came out about two months ago. Qream comes in two flavors, strawberry and peach with wonderful fruity and vanilla cream notes, silky and smooth in texture. Women love it, we got some great feed back from the ladies at For Sisters Only. </div>

To a certain extent I agree with him, and then you have some women who do if for that reason, and that reason alone. All stories are different and all women go natural for different reasons. So for my natural haired readers, and even those contemplating the transition to natural what is your story? Why did you decide to go natural, or why are you thinking about going natural now?</div>
