Stop forcing it...

Hey ya'll!  I've got some posts to draft (like my post on juicing), but just thought I'd throw this one up real quick, since it's been a few days since my last post.

Well, one of my resolutions this year is to not straighten my hair anymore.  No more flat iron.  Well no, not forever.  I will allow myself to go straight when I trim, but that's it.  I've decided to stop giving into this feeling of wanting straight hair, only to not really be into it after it's done.  I don't really like my hair straight, yet force it upon myself from time to time, like I'm suppose to like it that way.  I don't know what the psychology is in that--maybe it's just the urge to change things up.  Either way, I'm done with it.  I tend to want to straighten after seeing someone on TV or online or a magazine, etc. with nice looking sleek hair, but once I have that hair?  I'm never really happy and I end up putting it a bun or french braids, etc.  So I will from now on, see that nice sleek hair on other gals and be able to acknowledge to myself that although it looks great on THEM, it's not for ME.

So now I'm back to a regimen of bunning during the week, and braidout/twistout on the weekends.  I've gotten back into yoga recently and it's just best for me to have all this hair out of my way.


Sometimes after looking at pictures of my hair, I wonder why I'd ever want it straight anyway??

Anyway, have a great weekend!!
