She grew up with several cosmetologists in her family. She started uploading videos in 2009 after trying to go natural and finding very little information about it on YouTube.
Although she and her husband had to drop out of college when she became pregnant, and then move to Germany when he joined the Air Force, she was later able to complete both an undergraduate and master's degree.

She and Naptural85 both gained significant followings for their natural hair videos.
