I permed my hair for the last time on Saturday, December 5, 2008. I’ve read that I don’t need to make the “big chop” but I’m not sure where I’ll begin once I have more natural hair than permed hair. So far, it’s manageable because I go to salons run by Dominican stylists. They’re notorious for transitioning natural hair.

How I did it
How I did it: I literally filled out an application the week after my ex & I broke up. I had been procrastinating for YEARS and already had 2 pics for my passport. I enclosed my old passport & sent it off & got it back THREE WEEKS LATER! Definitely worth it! Read how I did it…
How I did it: There is no way that I can sum up 15 years in this little box. All that I can say is that if you want it, go get it. Don't let anything stop you. I changed my major 3 times. I asked lots of questions. I sat in the front of every class. I did my homework & stayed up LATE working on papers...sometimes sleeping for an hour in a 24 - 48 hour period & sometimes not at all.
