Natural Hair Tip: #MakeItReign with HeadWraps This Summer Wednesday 13 June, 2018
This post is sponsored by USA Network but the content and opinions expressed here are my own.
Summer is here and so many things are about to take off. First of all I will be doing some serious traveling, a little getaway for a few weeks internationally for my own spiritual break. While I am on my summer sabbatical, I want to not do as much to my hair as possible. I cut my hair recently, and although its less maintenance, sometimes I just dont want to be bother with it at all. So I decided I will be rocking more headwraps this summer, especially while traveling. I want to showcase how I am empowering myself with my new headwrap and hairstyle as there is a reason why I cut my hair!
Headwraps are not new at all, but for me they are. I always used to let my wild, curly and big hair dominate and it wasn’t in hiding at all. My hair was always seen. I never even thought to try to rock headwraps before, I thought I had too much hair. Well now, I am embracing headwrap and I think they are so cute. This particular one I am wearing, my friend gifted this to me from her trip to Kenya recently.
As a woman I feel like many of us think our hair is our focal point. Our beauty. At least that is what I used to think. I used to believe strongly if my curly hair wasn’t long and curly super definitely, my beauty wasn’t radiating. This is exactly why I cut my hair. I felt I was using my hair as a vanity tool, and didn’t believe I would be as attractive without a lot of curly hair. Well guess what, I cut my hair shorter but it is still a lot and it is still curly!
India Arie said it best twelve years ago, I am not my hair. Before the Dora Miaje and Amber Rose, she rocked a bald hairstyle boldly. When I cut my hair I felt liberated and free from society pressures that long hair is better. That curly big hair was the only way I would stand out and get attention. I do not believe this anymore and as a matter of fact these headwrap will condense my hair and prove hair isnt everything. I love headwraps and they are freeing! I even feel like a goddess. A Queen. My headwrap is my crown. All crowns don’t have to sparkle!
I love my hair shorter, but I will be growing it out again. As I grow so will my hair. For now, I m making it reign with less is more with my mane. Speaking of Making it Reign, I’m love television series that features strong leading female character called Queen of the South. I am just now starting to binge on USA Network original series of Queen of The South, that follows a woman named Teresa Mendoza on the show who now has to make it reign under some severe circumstances.
I’m currently catching myself up on Queen of the South in which seasons one and two are on Netflix. If you’re looking for a new series to get hooked on, Queen of the South is it. I hope I inspired you all to Make It Reign with your own beauty standards like I did, and empower yourself. If Teresa is the Queen of the South, I am the Queen of my own crown [head]. I’m Teresa Mendoza approved!
Stay tuned and check out how Teresa #MakeItReign herself in season 3 of Queen of the South which will feature guest stars; Remy Ma, Snow Tha Product and Michel Duval! Tune into USA Network Thursday, June 21st at 9/8c and every Thursday for Queen of the South.

I have to admit I don’t think I can make this work for myself, but it looks awesome on you. It’s a beautiful piece, I just don’t think I could pull it off!
I like this idea of using head wraps. It is not only fashionable, but it also provides cover for our hair from the harmful rays of the sun during summer. I will get one myself and practice using it. 🙂
When the weather isn’t good and windy, I also wear my scarf into a head wrap. I like it coz it protects my hair, plus I find it cool to have pop of color on top of my head!
I love these! You’re gorgeous, too, btw. I always love seeing women in headwraps but have never tried them myself. My goal is to wear them this summer and wear my natural hair out more. I just really don’t like fussing with my hair.
You look so awesome. I wish I could tie a head wrap, but I can’t to save my life. I’ve never heard of the show Queen of the South, but I look forward to watching it.
Nothing wrong with a little or a lot curly in your hair. And you do radiate beauty no matter what your hair looks like because beauty radiates from the inside.
Just like braids, I love headwraps but on other people. Maybe I haven’t yet found the wrap style that works for my head and face? I hope you post more photos of your head wraps in the future.
I love head wraps, especially when I don’t feel like combing my hair. I like that you cam wear them as a fashion statement and not something you just wear before going to bed.
OK your headwraps looks awesome! I love the rainbow of colours in them and the fact it is natural is great! I’ll have to check out the show as well.
That is such a cute head wrap! I have always thought they are so pretty and fun!

I am so not good at wrapping my hair in a presentable way but I love your style and how you’re making it reign.

I love my hair tied up in the summer but I don’t think I can ever pull that look off. It looks so cool on you.

Cute! I still have not learned how to wrap my hair like this. It ends up making my head look super big so I skip it.
I’ve ever been one to follow the trends for anything, hair included. I love your head wrap it’s beautiful
I love your headwraps. I was natural for about a minute, and really liked using headwraps to achieve different looks.
Beautiful headwraps. I love taking a random yet colorful scarf and turning it into something fit for a queen. You definitely made it reign in yours.
Your headwrap is nice it fits you perfectly, I also wish you have a great summer ahead!
Cute head wrap Kiwi. I don’t wear them but I think I will try one after I take my braids down.
I love natural hair. We all rock our natural hair in this family. My eldest daughter loves wearing headwraps.
Just like braids, I love headwraps but on other people. Maybe I haven’t yet found the wrap style that works for my head and face? I hope you post more photos of your head wraps in the future.
That wrap looks absolutely beautiful on you! Love the colors and it looks so lightweight.
I love this fabric design. A good wrap goes with almost any style. Love it
I love headwraps they are favorite when I am having a bad hair day. You can tie them so many differ ways and dress them up or down.
I love head wraps, especially when I don’t feel like combing my hair. I like that you cam wear them as a fashion statement and not something you just wear before going to bed.
I love the idea of head wraps. Especially for the summer when the last thing I want to deal with is my hair in this heat!
You look beautiful in your headwrap. My fourth daughter’s hair grow very slowly. I think the headwrap is a great idea for her appearance.
Your hair is so beautiful! This headwrap is fabulous and looks good on you, I like your style!
