To me, being a black woman and being beautiful are not mutually exclusive.

Before I go to bed, I twist my hair so it doesn't get knotted by morning and cover it with a silk scarf so it stays moisturized. In addition, I tend to wash my hair around once a week or every two weeks, depending on what I'm doing with it.

I embrace my darker skin - always have, always will. In addition, I believe black women have always been trailblazers and trendsetters. Acknowledgement or not, we are and always have been beautiful.
