On my last post, I told you, my readers, that I would let you know what in the world was going on with my hair. I was oiling my hair as usual when I noticed white oily clumps coming from my hair. Well, it was product build up. I was using the product daily and hadn't had a good clarifying wash in a while. After using the lemon, vinegar, and honey solution along with my normal shampoo and conditioner, it cleared right on up. I had no problems. I went back to using my BB castor oil but alternate between that and olive oil to maintain my moisture.
My hair has been growing like I a weed. Natural hair just has a mind of its own. I love it. Today, I wore my little cap and defined my curls a bit. I have also been wearing larger earrings as well...which is unusual for me. I am trying allow my own defined style to grow and develop.
I must admit that at times I still feel uncomfortable with my look; which explains why I have been natural several times before. This is usually around the time that I revert back to my relaxer. Today, I wanted my Halle Berry short cut and flips, but instead I used that energy to write in my blog. There have been times where I looked at myself and felt, my hair is too rough, that I didn't look feminine, and other things. But, I reminds myself that I am beautiful, that I just don't know how to work this look yet because it is new, that my hair is not the only thing that defines me, and that my goal is to maintain some stability in my life by maintaining my one style...my naturalness. Although it is month 3...YES IT WENT BY FAST...there is so much to learn. If I can wait this out, if I can only get through this part, the wait will be worth it.
