ATTENTION! ATTENTION!!: THE 6 MONTHS MARKS HAS BEEN HIT AND PASSED!!!!!!!
It has been TOO long I know since I have posted and there is so much to update and say. Today I am 6months and 3wks NATURAL! And the journey has been great thus far. my hair has grown and there are new issues that I have to face.
1. Im past the awkward stage! (FINALLY) Im use to my hair now. I feel closer to myself and begining to understand more the importance of acceptence of myself. People compliement me daily on how much it has grown and how healthy it looks. I take pride in my "Twistd Fro" and I found that when I had a sew-in (which only lasted maybe 2 weeks) last month that I missed seeing my own hair and tho it looked and felt great to have long hair again it just want me. I kinda felt uncomfortable.
2. The new Dilema: comparing myself to others. I often go online and look at other natural ladies' journies just to see where they were in correlation to my journey. I know that everyone is different but knowing isnt doing anything to preventing me from doing so. :(
3. Dilema #2: "Typing"- lately I have been trying to identfiy my type and Im not sure why I actually care. smh I know this is me basically going back to the whole "GOOD HAIR/ BAD HAIR" thing.
I love my hair! My goal is to Deep Condition every week and to reach shoulder lenth (once stretched out) by my 1 year mark!!
Stay tuned for Pictures! Many will be random ie: Trey Songz concert! Hanging out and shopping for my BLACK PARTY!!
