No matter what i did to it. i came to realize who i was. much more than just hair. I also realized that hair is just hair. and i embraced my curls. I wouldnt change them for the world. even when i press it, i cant wait to wash it out. LOL. Some peple may say that im not a true natural girl if i press or wear ponytail pieces, but i disagree. Im more real and natural than ive ever been. I;ve realized that im an artist at heart. And my life is my palette. what i say, wear, do is an expression of who i truly am. And i love it. I love what God has made!
