While doing my weekly website/blog crawl, I came across something very interesting on The Coil Review – “Your Natural Hair Journal”. Created to assist women during their transitional phase from relaxed to natural. The 12-month journal includes inspirational quotes, tips on achieving healthy hair, areas for notes and photos of your Journey and even natural hair resources such as blogs, websites and videos.

Here are the benefits to keeping a journal during this time:

• Allows you to record your thoughts and frustrations
• Can be used to help friends/family during their transition
• Measures and tracks the health and growth of your hair
• Keeps successful routines and products organized
• Helps you clarify your thoughts, feelings, and frustrations during your transition
• Gives you a place to vent when people who are unsupportive make comments about your decision to transition
• Creates awareness of negative beliefs and feelings concerning your hair so you can change them and appreciate the uniqueness and beauty of your natural hair
• Allows you to re-experience and appreciate the transformation of your hair at the end of your journey
