Natural Hair Biography

Source(google.com.pk)

Approximately ten years ago, Nikki Walton was a Missouri-based college student, balancing her studies and her social life like so many others, discovering deep-rooted things in her subconscious that had always existed but remained undetected. While away at school, Walton enlisted her boyfriend to transport her to and from her trusted hairstylist in St. Louis. This monthly trek entailed a three hour ride down the interstate- all to have her hair washed and “pressed” under scorching heat, ultimately achieving bone straight tresses that lasted a week. “After a year or two of that, my then-boyfriend, now husband, pulled me to the side and said, ‘You’re a Psych major, you should see that this isn’t healthy. Your hair is beautiful no matter how it is, and you should be comfortable with it kinky, curly, or straight,’” Walton recalls, “It was at that time that I had to agree with him.” Today, Nikki is a successful psychotherapist and the most credible online source in regards to natural hair care, maintenance, and decoding psychological ties between black women and their hair.
Two days into setting up CurlyNikki.com, Walton posted 30 articles using the information she’d diligently gathered over the years of getting to know her texture. “It was just all up there. I’d become an expert from just researching and analyzing the information,” Nikki says, “ I started the site, launched it with about 300 members from NaturallyCurly.com that came over with me and it’s grown exponentially from there.” Beyond providing tips and product recommendations, Walton implements her learned skill on the site as well in the subsection On the Couch with CurlyNikki. “It’s not just about the styling and the aesthetic, it’s also about the psychology because it’s very much wrapped up in body image and self-esteem. Our hair is everything,” Walton enthuses, “So allowing people to vent and talk about their family’s response, their friends’ response, to them Big Chopping or going natural, it’s very cathartic to be able to do that in a safe place.”
