About Us

It started with a email and a dream. Three friends came together after having their own reasons for going natural, to formulate a platform for empowering women to embrace their Natural Beauty. With hundreds of emails and tons of research between them, they had a vision to make their dream become a reality. Thus, The Natural Is… Group was formed and an amazing event soon followed. The Natural Is... blog empowers women to embrace their natural beauty and is a resource to promote and encourage quality healthy hair care. We do so, by enlisting the help of the best experts in the business to help drive home the message that Natural Is Beautiful!

Natural Is…Creative!

For the recent Big Chopper, this goes out to you!*

One of the best things about going natural is…you get to be creative! Aside from the array of hairstyles to choose from, accessories to play with and Youtube videos to watch on Going Natural, creativity can take you far. Here’s a fun and cute way to be creative as you embark/continue on your Natural Hair Journey.

Now that you’ve decided to take the complete plunge and rid your curls of creamy bondage, why not document your journey. Some have created a hair journey picture album showing their progress. However, if you’re anything like us and follow the beat of your own drum, why not make a Natural Hair Memory Box. This is a funky idea will not only capture your progress, but it will provide smiles on the days when you’ve had it up to here with your hair. What can I fill it with you ask. EVERYTHING!!!
  1. Take pics of great hair days for days when you are having a bad one. 
  2.   Print or tear out pics of your Natural Hair Inspirations. 
  3. Take an index card and write the best compliment you’ve ever received on it and keep it in the box.
  4. Have an absolute MUST READ WHEN GOING NATURAL that helped you get to where you are now; THROW IT IN THERE!!!
  5. Got a ticket from your first Natural Hair Meet-Up keep it!
And the great thing about creating a Natural Hair Memory Box  is,  if you’re single or a soon to be mom why not keep it as something that you can pass on to your daughter when she gets old enough to take care of her own hair. If you’re a teenager who faces issues about your hair care choice, why not show kids, family members etc, why you LOVE your new style? And if you’re a great friend who wants to support a friend in her journey, why not put a bow on it and give it as a Going Natural Survival kit. The possibilities are ENDLESS!!!!

*Please note that this is great for all who are natural or contemplating going natural.
