I have known Jeeva for about 4 years now and have always been in awe of her beautiful, warm smile. This naturalista is a very outspoken, loving and extremely driven young lady. When it comes to her crown, she describes herself as a "hair fanatic." Jeeva's journey to having Sisterlocks is more than a fashion statement. It's a lifestyle choice.
It is my pleasure to feature Jeeva as she talks about her lifestyle, passions and yes, her Sisterlocks!
Name 3 interesting facts about yourself

2. I am a lover of all forms of art. I have a passion for creativity and fashion
3. I am very social. I love and live for people
Tell us a bit about your hair story
For most of my life I have indeed been a naturalista. There was a short period in which I had texturized hair, to make it more manageable, however, not long after, I cut the hair and grew it back out completely natural.

I know some people have an extensive product arsenal. What products do you use? What is your hair regimen like?
I truly believe that with natural hair, you need natural products and I have faith in natural oils particularly. Currently I use, and have been using for at least two-three years, Tea Tree Oil by Hollywood Beauty(8oz btl) and Marula Natural Therapy Hair & Scalp Treatment by Motions(8oz oil in spray btl) as well as Motions Shampoo & Conditioner to ensure my hair is never too dry and is left with a great fragrance!
Do you take this natural approach into other areas of your life as well? I do take a more natural approach in my diet. I am vegetarian and I also thoroughly enjoy ‘ital food’ (vegan style-no animal product whatsoever). I do take into consideration my daily energy consumption as I’m also concerned about my environmental footprint. I also am presently employed with a company whose mission is entirely green oriented. The reason is simply because natural is better. For me it is that simple :) Final thoughts: What words of advice would share with someone who may be interested in starting locs.
