We love the conversation and information sharing on social media about natural hair. From Facebook to Instagram, the idea of wearing our hair unaltered by chemicals has become as natural as breathing.
But what seems to be missing is the voice of the mature natural-haired woman, that is women over 40. My co-founder and sister, Pamela and I fall into this category and we want to do more to highlight our beautiful natural sister’s in this space.
We want to know what you think in the meantime. Are we missing something? Are there voices out there that we aren’t aware of in the blogsphere? Are you over 40 and want us to share your picture on a page we’ll be creating featuring mature naturals? Send us your pic or share your thoughts via email at info@NaturalHaircareNews.com. In the meantime, take our poll below and get results back in real time!

Thanks Sandy for sharing link! I just subscribed to channel. I was not aware of the “mature” natural YouTube channels. I will definitely check out the rest.
Hello Sandy- Thank you so much for this information! We will reach out to her. Thank you for your support.
This is a great idea. There is a vlogger, Prettiunique on You Tube who organized around this issue before. She is knowledgeable of many of the older you tube naturals. You’d be surprised how many are on YT.
Here is link to her Mature Naturals You Tube Channel. I’m sure she would be glad to make an announcement about your interest in pictures as well as do an interview for you.
Thank you so much for filling the void of giving voice to “mature” naturals! I was thinking the other day that there’s a need for some type of network for 40+ naturals. I will definitely be sending a photo!
Thank you Tonya! We look forward to getting your photo as well.
