Let's talk hair. Let me start by taking you on a quick hair journey. I've had long hair all of my life. At 12 years old my mom got me a relaxer (chemical straightener) because she was working 2 jobs full time and couldn't hot comb my hair straight anymore due to lack of time. I got relaxers until the age of 18 when my, then hairstylist, dared me to go an entire summer without a relaxer (oh the horror! lol).....Let me rewind, my scalp was SUPER sensitive to ALL relaxers. I mean to the point of where I was 16 and 17 crying.....ANYWAY, I went this 1 summer without a relaxer and LOVED not having to suffer through the fiery burn of a it. The rest was history! A year later I cut my hair into a bob. Now here I am 5.5 years later and I am natural and loving it (and growing my hair back out long). It took me some time to 100% accept the hair that grew out of my head but now I LOVE it. The versatility of being able to wear my hair curly or straight, the health of my hair, and the fact that I'm doing something a lot of people are scared to do. Rock their natural hair.
With that being said people should embrace what they have. Straight hair, curly hair, afro, skinny, curvy, freckles, brown eyes, blue eyes, WHATEVER. Being confident and sexy is NOT about what you look like on the outside, it's a feeling. When you're TRULY confident in yourself you evoke confidence and sex appeal no matter what! You feel as though you can rock ANYTHING. Stop letting society dictate how you feel about yourself and DO YOU!
