Ms. Tameera Lynn Turner

So every week (I'm not committing to a day), I'm gonna feature a girl who has natural hair & all it's beauty. The first girl I'm featuring is a very close friend of mine and I want to die with envy whenever I see her hair. Tameera is a 19 year old from Harford County, MD. She is currently studying Biology at Harford Community College before she heads to The University of Maryland next fall. Come up !

Tameera has been natural her whole life. & for those of you who aren't familiar with being natural, it's not having any chemical products in your hair. Her hair being so thick and full, probably contributes to her different nationalities; which are African American, Indian, German, & Italian. But her length also contributes too how well she takes care of her natural hair. 

Tameera's favorite products are:

• Paul Mitchell: The Conditioner, which is a leave in conditioner that Tameera says eliminates frizz on hot days.
• Tui Hair Oil: She heats it up and dips the ends of her hair.
• Hair Milk: extra nourishment that she adds to her hair washing routine. 
• Shea Moisture's Curl Enhancing Smoothie: She uses this if she doesn't use The Conditioner. It also helps her eliminate frizz. 
• Curls Unleashed Curl Defining Creme. Tameera only uses this to create a certain style but says its great for dry hair. 

Since shampoo has been proven to be deadly by the natural hair community, Tameera washes her hair with Herbal Oil, Tea Tree Oil, Olive Oil, Wen Sweet Almond Mint, Tresemme Naturals, & Wen Lavendar. She does this process every three days while curly. Other leave-ins that she uses when she wants to switch things up are: Creme of Natures Argan Oil strength and shine leave in conditioner, Hawaiian Silky Miracle Worker, Dark & Lovely's Moisture Leave in Treatment & Wen's Leave On: Sweet Almond Mint. 

Having natural hair and retaining length is not easy but she has it down! I've honestly never her hair frizzy, dry, or a mess lol. If you're transitioning to natural or already natural, Tameera is definitely the perfect natural hair crush! Thanks for being my first naturalista!
