Au Naturel

We've said it before and we'll say it again: We are so glad to see more women sporting their natural texture. Viola Davis spoke of how "liberating" wearing her hair natural was, and stars like Oprah, Halle Berry, and Solange Knowles have all been photographed recently with their naturally-textured tresses. By trading in their wigs, weaves, and pressed locks in favor of their curls and kinks, these women are showing that not only is it okay to go natural, it's also absolutely stunning.

If you're making the leap from processed to natural hair, please remember to make sure to apply a hair oil to your strands religiously — when applied in conjunction with a leave-in conditioner, it will help keep your porous hair properly moisturized.
