take better care of my hair

but I’ve sure done this in the last 6 months and I’m definitely proud of myself.

I went to the salon yesterday. I got my hair washed, pressed and cut. So now it’s all straight and shorter. I’m loving it.

Yesterday I realized how long my hair was. I’m so happy. It seemed like it wasn’t going anywhere fast, but it has grown a great bit. It looks and feels healthier too and I’m trying new things with it, which have turned out pretty good and pple like it too. I’m doing this whole hair in curls thing which has turned out to be my new favourite hair style and alot of my friends like it too. I’m going to get it professionally cut before the year end. I’m thinking of even adding a colour for Christmas but we’ll see :D

I finally sat and did my entire hair in cork-screws. I’ve not done this in a while and now I’ve been getting all these compliments this week. Is it just because it’s a change or does it really look really good.. I’ve got no idea. But it’s accomplishing the purpose I wanted, which was to spend less time on my hair (especially on mornings) and to not be constantly brushing and combing and adding products so it can grow on it’s own. So now I think I’m gonna re-do this for the next couple weeks and probably even do braids which will last about a month without any interference besides washing and conditioning :)

I’m getting better at this and exploring new ways to style my hair. I actually really like my hair and I’ve decided I’m gonna get it natural for about another year. I was going to straighten it last year for my birthday but deferred to New Years. But now I’ve gone til ‘09. We’ll see how I feel about it then. But right now I’m loving the fact that I can curl my hair with my fingers lol. But on a real, I think I need to take care of it naturally first and get it to a great condition and then I’ll be able to manage it chemically. The chemicals really wasn’t a go the first time. Anyway going to get a stream and cut (I hate to but it’s needed) next week. I don’t think this goal will be hard to do. I actually I’m already on my way.
