Introduction

After weeks of reading natural hair blogs, I decided to start my own and named my baby Loc’d and Loaded. Of course, the name stems from the fact I’m a beautiful black woman rocking some AWESOME locs and my mind is loaded with lots of topics for this project. This blog will be loaded with posts, pics, product reviews and interviews dealing with locs. I have a natural haired (and boy do I mean natural) 2 year- old and because of her there will be plenty of stuff about loose, natural hair. In addition to various hair topics, there will be posts regarding current events, everyday life, relationships, etc. We may even touch on religion, as well. My aim is to create a well-rounded blog that educates, informs and entertains.

I suppose I should tell you a little about myself as well. My name is Ayneka and I’m 32. People and writing have always been a passion of mine, but it just wasn’t bringing in the kind of money I wanted when I was in my early 20s. I have a 2, soon to be 3 year old and a boyfriend/baby daddy/husband (we’re not “officially” married.)

Contributions are definitely welcome! If you have any tips or pictures you would like to share, please email them to rushgirlsc01@gmail.com. Also, if you know anyone with great hair (locs or natural hair, please) or locticians or beauticians, please send me their contact information and I’ll definitely include them in the blog.

Thanks in advance for all of your support and encouragement. Happy reading!
