consider yourself unlucky, but there’s always a next<br />

time right? Be sure to look out for it.<br />

Hairitage Chronicles, a first of its kind aims to bring<br />

major influence to Naturalistas in terms of diversity,<br />

appreciation of locally produced products and so<br />

much more. I’d highly recommend taking part; I now<br />

aim to be an avid participator in the many events to<br />

come and you should too.<br />

A definite must go for anyone and everyone.<br />

vLogging<br />

with the<br />

Kenyan Puff<br />

Vlogging is described as a blog that contains video<br />

content, and no one does it better in our natural<br />

hair space than Sharon Malonza, an 18 year old that<br />

runs My Kenyan Puff on YouTube, Instagram and<br />

Snapchat.<br />

Her natural hair journey started out of curiosity<br />

when she happened upon another Kenyan Blogger<br />

website. “I came across Craving Yellow’s blog one<br />

night and I read all her hair posts from that moment<br />

on. I also started reading up and watching videos on<br />

natural hair. I enjoyed the science of it all plus I’ve<br />

always loved how full and glorious the Afro looks.”<br />

she explains. “I transitioned for 10 months which<br />

gave me ample time to educate myself and then I<br />

big chopped on March 3rd 2016 with about 3 inches<br />

of hair. I’ve been fully natural for a year now and it’s<br />

been such a fun experience,” she adds.<br />
