Mane Chic Andrea

According to Merriam Webster’s definition, a mane is long and heavy hair on a person’s head. Me personally, don’t think it has to be long and heavy. If you have hair growing from your head, then I consider this to be your mane. Chic (pronounced sheek) is defined as smart elegance and sophistication. With that being said,


Meet Mane Chic Andrea!


How long have you been natural?
I’ve been natural for about 6 years!!!

What is your goal for your natural hair?
My goal use to be bsl, mid back, all the way down there hair but, since getting older and a little wiser I really just desire healthy, beautiful hair! If my hair grows all the way there then, thank you Jesus!!! if not, well THANK YOU JESUS ANY WAY!!! LOL!!!


How does your natural hair make you feel about yourself?
My hair doesn’t make me; it’s a part of me. There are a lot of things such as my personality, spirit, eyes, nose, smile that make up Andrea. My hair is just part of that chaotic combination! Lol!

If you could go back and change anything about your natural hair journey, what would it be and why?
I would have found what works for ME! I spent a lot of time on You Tube, blogs, etc. and tried to use everything the cyber world said works Lol! My ended up a chaotic combination of confusion!!!!  Don’t get me wrong I absolutely love blogs and You Tube, but if I could go back I would have just kept it simple. You live and learn.

If you were to go on a hair product diet for 6 months (summer through fall) by not using more than 5 products on your hair, what products would be in your stash?
It would have to be my black soap, Herbal Essence Hello Hydration conditioner, Karen’s body beautiful butter love, eco styler olive oil gel, and some hair pins!!! lol!

What is your staple style?  Give a quick tutorial on your staple style.  If you have a picture your staple style, include it as well.
I wear my hair in twist Monday-Friday and then on the weekend I let the mane go free!!!!! I also do a lot of up-dos when I’m bored with my hair.


What is one product that you have found to have more than one use and you used it on your hair?  For example, you look at the ingredients of your favorite body lotion and decide that it can be used as a great moisturizer for your hair.
Oh wow that’s easy! Olive oil, it makes the bomb grilled tilapia and is awesome as a moisturizer/ pre-poo

What tips/advice do you have to share about natural hair?
Condition! Condition! Condition! Moisturize! Moisturize! Moisturize! The rest is up to you!!!!



If you had to choose one word to describe your mane, what would it be and why?
Andrea’s!!! lol!!! It’s all me!!!!

Thank you so much Andrea for sharing your Mane Chicness with us!!  For more of Andrea, visit her at her Website, Blog, and Facebook
