#25: NATURE! Our best, most generous teacher

#25 NATURE

When times were lean and mean in my very early days as an actress and I couldn’t afford hair conditioner, I went to my kitchen! Mayo. Egg. Avocado. Olive Oil. Coconut Milk. Shea Butter. The natural stuff was accessible, had great value and often did a better job than the highly processed stuff. I made these hair pastes my weekly ritual, spending time with myself, pouring myself a glass of sparkling apple cider (I don’t drink) and taking a load off while God’s Harvest did the heavy lifting on my hair. My hair teaches me to enjoy nature’s bounty and that what works for the inside also works for the outside. 

*Every day starting February 24th at 11:11AM EST (it is said that the angels sing at this time!) until April 10 I will count down the remaining days of our 'A Call to HAIRiette ARMS' fundraising campaign. We're raising funds to create an interactive series --with YOU!-- and a haircare line (a portion of which goes to charity, THE ACTOR'S FUND).

We'll share one essay from my upcoming book I FOUND GOD IN MY HAIR: 98 spiritual principles I learned from my relationship with…my hair! (via twitter: @tanyaTTwright, @HAIRietteharlem). As with all things that give you struggle, my hair has taught me a lot about life, love…and FAITH. It is my hope you will find inspiration in these essays to apply to your own life.
