So after a long road trip two weeks ago, I had some more time to think about the route I’m going to take with my hair. The verdict is in. I’ve consulted a few friends and other naturalistas, and decided to cut the locks in a few more months. Just for fun, I may do a poll on Facebook or Instagram to get friends and followers opinions. I say my mind is made up, but there could be a mistrial although a final ruling has been made.
Now, you may be wondering how did I get to this conclusion. Here’s what happened. I’ve been reflecting on being able to see and feel my unlocked hair. It’s so soft and curly. Then I began to envision some cute natural styles I’d like to try. I could use a fresh start. A new funky style. It’s time to change it up a little.
I know there’s a commitment at hand. My hair is thick. I’ll probably have actress Angela Bassett’s arms after combing and styling my hair. In the past I’d wear two-strand twists for 1-2 weeks, then do a twist out. That’s all I knew back then. Oh and I’d rock a fro with my headband. Today there’s a plethora of styles available. Best of all, YouTube and Pinterest are great resources to have.
If you’re on Pinterest and you think there’s a style that would fit me let me know! I’d like to hear from you. If you want, you can tell me in the comments below, that’s fine too.
