Jun. 23rd, 2013 12:32 amHey you guys!
So since I can remember me and my hair...we've kinda of been enemies? It's always been tough to deal with. I got my first relaxer when I was like four or three or something, reportedly because my mom found to hard to deal with.
I've been getting relaxers since then. I remember I used to hate to get my hair washed. I absolutely hated it. I swear I would make a scene and cry whenever my mom washed it. I remember she was surprised once when my former sister in law, Shauna, told her she had washed my hair and I didn't cry XD
It started falling out once. I can't remember exactly what grade I was in, but maybe junior high? I had dyed it countless times and it got damaged.
For awhile I stopped relaxing it. My mom would use olive oil in my hair and she would just straighten it out. It started growing out after that.
Right now I'm having the same issues. My hair dries easily and it's shorter on one side. It's always the same side. I think it's probably because I always sleep on this side.
But I've been looking at some natural hairstyles. I've been thinking about perhaps letting my natural texture show. I usually don't like how it looks, but that's because I don't know what do with it and I don't know how to properly take care of it. But seeing other women with my hair type (4C thank you very much), I see how pretty theirs is.
So yeah I think I might go natural at some point. I want to try it out at least. But I really need to find the right products for my hair regardless and treat it better.
