It's so important to have the support of your spouse, booski, and even friends when your working incorporating natural remedies, foods and even hair and skin care. from my experience I know that when my boyfriend is supportive and patient with me when I'm doing my hair that it makes me feel good. It's not only encouraging, but it makes me feel good. It wasn't always like that though. Transitioning was difficult because when I was dating, guys at that time was so accustomed to pressed/permed hair. The more that I embraced my naturalness, natural remedies and be more mindful of my diet, the more I noticed others around me start to pay attention and instead of ridicule me, they became supportive because I showed confidence in my "naturalness". Our Natural is Beautiful! Find people that are supportive. Develop that network! I promise it's the best decision you can make in your natural journey, whether it's in your diet, skin, hair and nails, having people you can talk to openly and not tear you down or make jokes about your progress of lack thereof makes all the difference!
So, I'll step off my soapbox now. I hope we can all build that supportive network we need and be accepting of the compliments we receive regarding the steps we've taken to being our better selves naturally. :-) Live on purpose! MuAh & CiAo!
