Natural Styles I Am Looking Forward to This Fall

Autumn is upon us, and I have been rocking my crochet bohemian braid and natural hair all summer long! Now that the leaves are changing and air is getting colder, there are some wonderful styles I cannot wait for.

1. Box Braids

Box braids are so versatile. They can go up and down. You can add a streak or some color towards the bottom. You can pair them with clips or beads, but the best thing is that they are long. These long braids can act as my scarf when I forget mine. They can wrap around my neck on the cold walks from class. Also, if I get them done as a crochet braid set, they can protect my hair while reinforcing my braiding pattern.

2. Faux Locs

Faux locs do not have to be long, but they are thick. Their thickness provides warmth, but they are also very versatile. Personally, I am going to stay away from coloring my locs unless I go with an ombre or buy them in a colored pack.

3. Corn Rows

Long big cornrows are not as versatile, but they do look very well and are extremely easy to do. The thickness also provides warmth during the chilly nights.

4. Bomb Twist Out

During the colder months, I do not like to wear my natural hair. Mostly because my natural hair can easily become dried out and with the constant styling every night it can shed a lot and be more prone to breaking off. But this is definitely something I can try to accomplish in between my protective styles of braids.

5. Scarf Wrap


If there is ever a bad hair day you can definitely make it work with a scarf. I think a scarf is so beautiful and can definitely spruce up an outfit.

6. Something Colorful

I love color in the summer, but I have always stayed away from an unnatural color. The winter is the perfect time to experiment. I am definitely thinking that a burgundy can bring in the fall spirit.

7. Curly Blowout

I have always done the crochet bohemian twist, but this winter I really want to try marley hair. I want to learn how to curl it and straighten it. Marley hair is so versatile and holds heat better than my natural hair.

8. Big Hair

Big hair = Warm hair. My natural hair is beautiful, so a wash and go before it gets too cold is definitely on my radar.

9. Sengelease Twists

Sengelease twists are so empowering to me. I have no idea why, but they are fabulous. They go with every outfit. Twists are also light compared to some braids and they are definitely versatile.

10. Sassy Haircut

Unlike most people I definitely love to wear my hair out in the summer. Therefore, if I cut any of my hair it will be during the fall season in order for there to be a time for my hair to grow back.


And to all my lovely naturalistas, what styles are you looking forward to in the fall season?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
