Hi and welcome to What Naturals Love! 

 

Inspired by creative souls, from the streets of Brooklyn to the beaches of Guadeloupe, from the city of Paris to the lanes of Paramaribo, What Naturals Love brings together hair and fashion as they are celebrated around the world. 

Inspired by our unapologetic roots and driven by the fact that Black people are the only people who don’t have the human right to wear their God-given tresses natural, I use my camera to shoot for justice, aiming for equal hair rights, one headshot at the time.

 

Born in the Netherlands, raised in Suriname, based in New York, I capture natural hair and dance wherever I go.

As a Social Web Entrepreneur who has traveled the world, I had no choice but to expand Going-Natural.com to Blog & Shop that represents the incomparable Diaspora.

 I built WhatNaturalsLove.com

 

motivated me to build this marketplace to display their amazing craft to a worldwide audience. WhatNaturalsLove.com doesn't only give these designers a chance to expand beyond their borders, it allows you to support our worldwide growing community by buying directly from them.

This all greatly comes together at the 10th anniversary of America's Next Natural Model, an online pageant to promote natural hair, Black (hair) businesses and the Diaspora.

The contestants of the online pageant will not only feature What-Naturals-Love.com items, the winner of America's Next Natural Model 2018 gets a photo shoot in the beautiful Feng Shui Garden in Suriname, the greenest country on the planet! The trip to this tropical country in South-America in the middle of the Guyana's, is included, sponsored by SLM, Suriname's National Carrier.

This is only the beginning of what we have in store for you. So please stay tuned! 

In the mean time don't be shy to order while we keep building and expanding the marketplace and please generously like, spread and share the word!

Grantangi! Mireille Liong
