Me and my hair: a love-hate relationship

I used to have much kinkier, shorter hair.

It would frizz like crazy and look like a mushroom cap! I despised it! I would have given anything to have straight hair just like everyone else.

I went to a salon where the hairstylist used a strong chemical straightener on my hair that only made it worse and practically killed it.

Now that it's been about 4 years, I look back and laugh at myself for trying to be like anyone else. Now that I've grown my original, natural hair out, I've finally got what I've been waiting for and I love it. I love being different - turning heads - thats me!
