Women are searching for alternative ways to style their hair and more and more women are going natural. Although, relaxed hair is still popular amongst African American women, relaxers are going on sale in most Beauty supply stores. I found that almost 80% of AAW want to go natural, but are afraid of the outcome, that&#39;s why as a natural hair stylist I recommend a consultation before taking that big step.&lt;br /&gt;

Hey ladies, it&#39;s your girl Tara here to tell you the do&#39;s and don&#39;ts about coloring your natural coils. Please ladies do your research. Check the ingredients before coloring your hair. Tell me something, if your hair is chemical free why are you coloring &amp;nbsp;your hair with harsh chemicals that will straighten the natural coil, over process your hair, and cause possible hair damage.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: large;&quot;&gt;STOP AND TAKE A LOOK!&lt;/span&gt; Here are some common harsh ingredients found in most hair 
colors!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ammonia&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Phenylenediamine&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;b&gt;Hydrogen Peroxide&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;b&gt;Monoethanolamine&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 900;&quot;&gt;Look out for products that states &quot;ammonia free&quot; some of those products are still harsh for your hair.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 900;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
A lot of women use Henna to color their hair, but I found a lot of women are using commercial hair color, one in&amp;nbsp;particular&amp;nbsp;is Naturtint. I read a lot of excellent reviews about this product.&amp;nbsp;Naturtint is an ammonia- and resorcinol-free hair color. 
It uses plant-based products like soy and oats to provide up to five weeks of 
permanent hair color and 100 percent coverage of gray hairs. Naturtint has been 
sold across Europe since 1984. All shades of color include a bottle of colorant, 
a developer and a moisturizing treatment.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Naturtint can be found in Whole Foods.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;img alt=&quot;Viola Davis Steps Out in Natural Hair at ESSENCE&#39;s Black Women in Hollywood Event&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://ll-media.essence.com/2012/02/23/viola-davis-natural-hair-240x340.jpg&quot; width=&quot;240&quot; /&gt; &lt;/div&gt;
With the meteoric success of &lt;em&gt;The Help&lt;/em&gt;, Viola 
Davis has racked up one accolade after another this awards season. She&#39;s been 
jetting from red carpet to red carpet in gorgeous gowns and glamourous gems -- 
but yesterday, at &lt;a href=&quot;http://photos.essence.com/galleries/essence_black_women_in_hollywood_2012&quot; s_oc=&quot;null&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;ESSENCE&#39;s Black Women in Hollywood&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;event, we saw a 
side of the actress we&#39;ve rarely seen before. That&#39;s because Davis fearlessly 
flaunted her cropped, natural coif.&lt;strong href=&quot;http://photos.essence.com/galleries/essence_black_women_in_hollywood_2012&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When asked if she breaks out her natural hair 
for special occasions, Davis replied, &quot;No, there hasn&#39;t been any occasion that I 
felt brave enough to do it.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://photos.essence.com/galleries/essence_black_women_in_hollywood_2012&quot; s_oc=&quot;null&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;PHOTOS: ESSENCE Black Women in Hollywood 
2012&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Davis attributed her bravery to wear her natural &#39;do to 
the encouragement of her loving husband Julius Tennon, who&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong href=&quot;http://photos.essence.com/galleries/hairstyle_file__viola_davis&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&quot;told me to step into who I am,&quot; she said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The 
Best Actress Oscar nominee also confessed that her natural hair has given her a 
thrilling new feeling. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Bob&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&quot;I feel very powerful, I really do,&quot; said Davis. &quot;I feel 
more powerful every day, more secure in who I am, and I&#39;ve waited so long for 
that.... It feels so divine.&quot; &lt;/div&gt;
