“Kinky, coily hair is beautiful. It’s professional and elegant. It validates my sense of self and does not take away from my femininity,“ writes Ivana Fischer, a culture journalist on assignment for HuffPost. "These and many other mantras continue to guide me throughout my transition every day. Showing myself love in that way has helped me to embrace being a naturalista. I have a newfound, unwavering confidence that could only come from finally accepting myself, and my features, as beautiful."
