Follow HairNista on Instagram

By Tenisha Mercer

Kicking and screaming, I took a seat at the Instagram table in July ... and really haven't promoted it much or even used it much at all since my initial sign-up.  Now, I love how other folks use it -- to capture in-the moment ish -- but me?

Not so much. I just haven't caught on to it yet. Maybe it has something to do with how I actually have to think for a minute or two about how to use it, get frustrated as hell, then move on to something else.

ADD, much?

HairNista is on Instagram!

After seeing all of the lovely natural ladies on Instagram after reading Essence's top 100 Instragrammers, I decided to set up an account.

Ya'll know I love anything hair.

For me, Instagram serves two purposes:

1. A repository for all of my natural hair photos (I only publish a portion of them here, but my kids complain about all of the photos I've got on my phone. I ignore them, because,  hey, it's MY phone and largely MY pictures, but I'm running out of memory cards.

2. Extend the brand. I've got some big dreams for HairNista, and getting the blog more well-known and recognized is just part of it.

My Instagram account is HairNista313. I'll be posting pics soon; check them out.
