This is essential because salt dries out your body, and this is the worst thing you can do to yourself if you are already suffering from difficult and painful bowel movements. <a href="http://www.sattabazzar.com/" rel="nofollow">play bazaar</a> <a href="http://www.sattabazzar.com/" rel="nofollow">satta king</a> playbazaarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13104296006854987450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654312473370527266.post-24487330600643489322012-03-05T15:51:46.487+01:002012-03-05T15:51:46.487+01:00Hi thanks for the article!

I am living in Austria (and there is no good salons out here). I would love to get some color and maybe a shape up. Thanks in advance!!Dee123https://www.blogger.com/profile/12091483744908831585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654312473370527266.post-61785117311021371092012-01-31T21:46:49.318+01:002012-01-31T21:46:49.318+01:00For what it's worth.

It's great that is local and can advise on products. being natural in america is not the same as being natural here. the reaction from the men is also different here :) welcome really glad you found me!<br /><br />@elliegoestogermany wow restructured, that is a new one! afro germans come up to me and touch my hair and make faces like 'oh this is not good, perm it, fix it, what is this, is it braid, time to takei t out or it will fuse' i am like chick, where are YOUR edges you need to be checking for those!nicole is the new blackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10718701168161386976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654312473370527266.post-90197234342497539332011-12-09T19:36:55.693+01:002011-12-09T19:36:55.693+01:00I'm mixed and I have a head of crazy curly hai...I'm mixed and I have a head of crazy curly hair, and I'm not a fan of straight hair. I see a lot of black ladies here (in Nürnberg) with straightened hair and it's just a little sad. I had to get my hair trimmed so I went to another black lady that spoke English and her suggestion to me was to restructure my hair to make it more manageable. I was like- nahhh I'm good, I love my naturally curly hair, although it definitely is tough to get good hair care products here without going online. I love that you talk about this topic, it is something I'm learning here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654312473370527266.post-80502113536106253032011-12-07T18:46:30.549+01:002011-12-07T18:46:30.549+01:00When I first started my quest with going natural i...When I first started my quest with going natural it wasn't a big thing on the east coast of the U.S. so I can say that I do understand what you are saying even though we are miles and miles away. Now there are so many products I had lost control with being a pj until I locked it up. I have to say it took me close to 30 years to love my natural hair and I will NEVER look back! It was a liberating experience for me and I am glad that I finally kept my promise with myself and my husband. <br /> I found a natural hair site based in the UK a year ago it is called The Natural Lounge for any of your readers that feel helpless like I did in the beginning. Of course, there are numerous natural hair sites on the web but at least this one can help some women in Europe with local products. I will have to agree with you on your comments about why Black women in Europe are still wearing their hair chemically altered. Hopefully one day they will take the blinders off and realize that their crowning glory was not meant to be tamed! <br /> I am a little late here with finding your blog and videos but your bookmarked now. I love your blog and youtube vids keep up the good work. You are inspiring me to plan a trip to Europe sometime in the future!Sunny just plain ole' sunnie :)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05480626746973139769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654312473370527266.post-30694242919636719902011-12-06T17:10:30.986+01:002011-12-06T17:10:30.986+01:00It's unfortunate how few products there are......It's unfortunate how few products there are...glad I found your blog though! via twitter (AsWeTravel).

It's definitely for the reasons you've mentioned. I wanted to get my locks maintained but the few salons I found were charging wayyy too much money.<br /><br />I also wanted to comment that as a Black Canadian, I have noticed that hair care products that cater to Afro textured hair are scarce in Canada. We just don't have the range and variety that you do in the States. I'm from Toronto and remember that any time I would go to the States with my mom that the FIRST thing we would do was load up on hair care products to bring back to Canada with us.Oneikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08567555873785208995noreply@blogger.com
