"Ladies, thank you for making me feel at home. Loc maintenance when traveling is not always easy. I don’t believe in letting just any body groom my locks. The welcoming feel of the salon prompted me to schedule an appointment and I am glad I did. Your positive energy is inspiring. Until next time."

I especially want to thank you for playing a huge role in my looking amazing at the 2007 Stellar Awards. Natural Resources is a salon with stylists that have not only great skill but amazing spirits!"

See you soon!

The Versatility of My Natural Hair
"I've taken a classic updo style and added an elegant twist. My natural hair allows me to look professional at work and gives me the versatility to add pizzazz on the weekends with color, hairpieces, scarves, other hair ornaments and accessories. I've always viewed my hair as an expression of myself and naturally speaking I’ve never felt more confident and beautiful."

A Natural Thank You To Natural Resources
"The thought of locking my hair was first brought to my attention by my wife. She asked me why don’t you lock your hair since you have had so many different looks? I never took the time to think of the process to be endured, I just said I’ll do it. I had to realize very quickly that you must have a lot of patience to fully understand the process and what it entailed. I started in March ’03 and thought I was well on my way to something exciting. Due to my particular hair texture, I did not realize that this was going to be more complicated than I thought. I have had several stylists explain the locking process to me and they all have similarities and differences with their consultations. I began the process three times and it was a nightmare. I was about to lose faith in the process until I found one particular location called Natural Resources. The knowledge and understanding of hair texture and how to work with it left me totally impressed with the staff. In May ’03, I was on my way again. Still, not totally convinced after three months of maintenance, I was just watching my hair continuing to grow. After being rebellious and moving around again to find a quick solution, I realized that there was none. My stylist (Monique) has been very good at keeping me informed of phases and stages of my locks. If Monique says it…it is so. She and co-worker Tamika have definitely made my process one to be enjoyed. Through many conversations, and the fact that their personalities have been great, they are to be commended. Though I am free to do what I want, when I want, I am another brother locked up! To the ladies of Natural Resources, I say thank you... Keeping it natural is keeping it real."

It gives me great pleasure to know that there are young members of our society who possess a sincere, deep rooted love for man kind: a young woman who conveys, not only with words but actions, love and respect for others. I am personally amazed at this young woman’s tremendous wisdom. From our first meeting continuing until the present, she has given me a reason to stop and think because of her soft spoken, hard hitting words of insight about what needs to be done to change one’s views and misconceptions about African Americans adorned with natural hair. I have personally sat under her tutelage and learned about the advantages, rewards and freedom of wearing my hair in its natural state and to love and appreciate what God has blessed me with. In other words I’ve developed a new self love like I've never known before. One might say it is a "calling" on her life, I believe that crossing each other's paths in life was predestined.

I had already started treating my body to better nutritional health. By chance, I was introduced to Natural Resources as an alternative to healthier hair care. I was hesitant to change but I did. No more hair breakage, hot tools and time spent on deciding what to do with my hair. As a result my hair is growing and is naturally strong. Natural Resources helped me select a style that I am comfortable with no matter where I go and the complements keep coming almost a year later. When I'm ready Natural Resources will help me select a style that will fit my lifestyle. I am can truly say I am healthier from head to toe.

I have been a customer of Natural Resources for almost 2 years. I decided to go natural because my hair was shedding, and due to my schedule I was unable keep up with the schedule for hair maintenance with a perm. Relaxing my hair was very painful due to chemical burns and I suffer with very dry scalp, so I really need a change. Many don’t believe this is my hair, but it is “ALL NATURAL” I enjoy the freedom of not worrying about curls falling or the dreaded humidity messing up a hair due. Tamika is a wonderful and creative stylist. On my special occasions she makes me look like a beauty queen, the compliments just keep coming. As far as the Earth Nectar products, they too are fabulous. I have used and still use the Hair Milk, The Detangler, and the Hair perfume (that’s what I call it) The Hair Milk is very light and it makes may hair shine and the aroma is very pleasant. The Detanlger is my life saver, before I used it it took me hours(sometimes days) to comb out my hair after I take the twist out, now it’s takes less than 2 hours, to take the two-strand twist out, comb out the knots, wash & blow dry my hair. The hair perfume is very nice as well it smells wonderful and I also receive comments like, “man you smell good” and I tell them it’s my hair.

I have been twisting my hair for about a year now, and now that my schedule has changed I’m ready for some new fun and exciting hair styles Tamika has an in store for me.

Sincerely,
A very satisfied customer
