Believe it or not I am currently natural :) . Pay no mind to the profile picture, because you have no idea what a little R&R with my blow dryer and flat iron can do with coily-curly hair.
To the natural girls out there,
Maybe you guys can understand how hard it is to find a tutorial on YouTube on how to highlight natural hair the correct way. I looked high and I looked low and I had to pull information from the ying yang (literally). The closest I ever got to a youtube video was by Taren916

If you plan on highlighting your natural hair with foil here are some tips:
- Learn the weaving technique
- Make sure your hair is straight before you try highlighting
- I recommend using the Soft-Sheen Carson Box Colors
- Wait 24hours after washing your hair to add any color
- Reduces chemical intake into hair follicle (and damage)
- Since you have curly hair it is important to maintain moisture after coloring
- Deep condition right after and one a week
- Consider Co-washing with moisturizing conditioners (Palmers Olive Oil and Garnier Fruitis Conditioners are great)
