Doing the Straight thing!

Hey People! Yesterday, I decided to take on a different look. I decided to get a weave, a straight one!
Naturals... Don't get on me about that self hating crap and me wanting the European look. I'm well aware of the subconscious self hate that many blacks may suffer with. However, I can say that I love my image. I love being my dark-skin and soft cottony feeling hair. I felt it was time to change it uo. So I got the weave.

This weave will only last for about two weeks, which is cool. Since I began taking the path of learning how to properly care for my hair. I never went a week without washing... So this is going to be tough, me not washing the hair for two weeks, but I have to be strong.

This is also another example of doing what you want to your hair regardless of what others think. My besty told me today that he didn't like my hair. At first I cared about his opinion. Then, I thought to myself for a minute: Why the hell do I care if anyone likes it? I'm not dating anyone, to have to go through lengths to impress them with the way my hair is styled or the way I dress... Do what you want to your hair and wear it proudly.

We as people have to stop making decisions based on other's opinions. It will make you unhappy and discourage you from trying new things. Stop and take a minute to think about why someone has told you not to do what you want, when it comes to your image. Is it something that can potentially damage your hair? Or because they will never consider doing it?

When it comes to any decisions you choose. Just know the reason why you are doing it...

I chose a straight weave this time. Who knows what my next style will be... But at least I know it's my decision and no one else's.
