> My name is J’Lisa and I am from and currently reside on St. Croix, US Virgin Islands. I have a BS in Health and Exercise Science from Syracuse University and I am currently pursuing my Physician Assistant Certification/Masters in Clinical Medical Science.
> I have been natural for 2 years and 3 months. I think my hair type is 3c/4a-- somewhere in between there lol. My hair type is sort of kinky-curly. They (my curls) have a mind of their own depending on which part of my head they are on!
Did you transition or big chop? Why did you take that route?
> I big chopped after about 2 months of no relaxer. I am sort of impulsive and couldn’t wait to transition lol. It was and still is one of the most liberating things I’ve ever done.

What was it like when you experienced your natural hair for the first time?
> I was natural until about 17yo and then relaxed my hair before I went to college. I actually big chopped as I was finishing up my degree. It was weird to see my natural hair again because while I was natural for a long time, I had heat damage because I would mainly blow dry my hair. It was really eye opening to see my natural texture.

What are some of your favorite products? (Top 3)> My top 3 products would have to be the Shea Moisture Curl Enhancer Smoothie, the Shea Moisture Reconstructive conditioner and any leave-in conditioner from Blue Magic.
What are your go-to hairstyles?
> My go to hairstyles would be twist outs or just wake up and go’s lol.

How do you feel about your hair today?
> As of today, I feel really proud of my hair length and strength. I think back and can’t believe it’s already been 2 years! Looking back at pictures it was a long road but I am more than happy with my decision and plan to keep it going!
