Yay me. In a few more days I will be 7 months natural. Wow! There have been some ups and downs, but well worth it. I am still learning about my hair and trying different styles when I'm able to. I did have my hair in twist and wore them out for the first time some couple of weeks ago and did a twist out which came out pretty good. I will have to do that again this weekend hopefully. Over the Thanksgiving holiday, or that day actually, I decided to straighten my hair with a flat iron. As I was going along, I noticed how my ends were damaged, so I know I will need to do a trim if I do my twists. As I was going along though, I started thinking this isn't what I wanted, flat and straight hair. So you know what I did, wash it out and was hoping, hoping that my hair would go back to it's kinky, curly self and it sure did. I feel like that would be the boring old me again and I love how my hair makes me different and how good it makes me feel.

Yep, curly hair may well be the next fashion trend. But curly hair comes with its own set of challenges and opportunities, which are met by products and stylists.

During the summer is when most people like to show off their new look and styles. There are many hair styles that you can choose to do for the summer as well as having the low maintence as well. Locs, braids, afros and twists can be dazzled up with colorful hair accessories such as headbands, clips, and scarves. The list is endless and is limited by your own creativity. The main thing to make sure of though is to have your hair moisturized and conditioned as the summer months progress. This will keep your hair from having the least breakage, damaged and being dry. So have fun and protect your crown of glory.

I happened upon a survey and these two questions that they had made me laugh. It was a survey about if hair makes you or something to that nature. I think that if I didn't know the information about natural hair as I do now, I probably would have picked the disagreeable answers.

How about this: "a woman with a blow-out is the least romantic person on the planet: There's no sex in the shower, and she's always extracting herself from her lover's embrace because he's breathing on her blow-out and making it curl." Choose all that apply.

Yep

Been there

Amazing

Laughingly perceptive

Frizz is OK, it's dynamic

Don't understand

~ when my hair gets long enough to do a nice blow out, i'll test this theory out.. lol, but  i doubt i would be worrying about my hair in that situation =)

As regards a black lady's hair, how accurate is this statement: "kinks are gross and have to be concealed, if not corrected. Straight hair promises romance, laughter, abounding beauty. If you want to be happy, you have no choice but to unravel every nap on your head."

Very inaccurate 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 5.0 Very accurate
~ i love my kinky curls =)

And I am still loving it. Earlier, I was just playing around and trying to figure out what new looks I could come up with and I found one that I could do for a little while. The frohawk is a style that I've seen and love on some of the ladies that I have viewed on Youtube. I am going to do 3 flat twist on each side of my hair and just use the products that I use already to make the curls pop out. Just by playing with it, I think it suits me really well. This is something really out of my element that I know at one point and time I would never do, but I think I look really cute with it once I sharpen out what I need to do :) 2 months went by fast though.

The one thing that I need to work on is not playing in my hair so much when I don't need to. LOL. I think I do more of that when I'm at home and don't have any place to go and I just start playing with a curl here or there, twirling it around my fingers and such. I know that it will just make my hair frizzy in the worst way, but it hasn't been bad if it does frizz. That is just something I need to stop doing, but I can't help it sometimes :) I never thought though my hair would have as many curls or I should say curly twists as it does and I'm finding that the front of my hair is now growing out that way. When I did the BC, it was somewhat straighter, but I guess that is due from the perm. But anyway, thought I would share my 2 month natural anniversary to those that may read my blog.
