Proper hair cut

Today I got my hairs cut, in a curly way 😍 also colored, but kind, semi-permanent color. I feel clean, light, young and quite springy 😂😍🤷🏻‍♀️ curlygirl #embracingthecurls #banthestraightener #beingabetterme #curlygirlmethod

Let’s be real

So, I got the Curly girl Method book, (I’ll add the amazon link) and I went to Walmart today and got some great products, and then Co-washed my hair, leave in conditioner and then gel. Then I clipped UP my roots, And THIS is how I look waiting for it to air dry. I will only do this level on my days off, with no one home 😂. It’s pretty rough 🤪 #curlygirlmethod #embracethecurl #beingreal #curlyhair Waiting to dry, with wine  Cleaning conditioner = co-wash (bought at Walmart) and conditioner (bought at Walgreens)  After shower add ins. A little leave in, (from Walmart) and gel, (from walgreens) 

Pics to start

Just a couple pics to look back on and see if my hair changes at all. Today is 4 days of not brushing.... at all 😬. Feels like I’m forgetting many steps every day, but already so much less hassle! #curlygirlmethod  curlygirl #embracingthecurls #banthestraightener #beingabetterme Day 1, and kept straight bangs  day 3, didn’t straighten the bangs, and so much easier  Trying to get a pic of the top and back 

Going Curly

I'm embarking on a challenge of sorts, not like the time i went a year without alcohol, not like when i decided to NEVER smoke another cigarette, (on year+ strong by the way) This is a Better me sort of challenge. I'm embracing who I am, how I am and what makes me me. I have curly hair, I had long pin straight hair growing up, that would frizz and fluff in the summer. In the 90's I PERMED. Like hardcore, 90$ spiral perms every 6 months for many years. I chopped it off, and several years later, my mom introduced me to a "STRAIGHTENER" and my life was joyous! I could control my hair, it was straight, and silky and pretty. So, that was  ...... 13 years ago? I've been killing my hair with chemicals, color, heat and shampoo, it's frizz, and limp, and makes me want to keep straightening, but now, i want to stop. I don't even like it straight anymore, but it's the only way i know to make it look pretty. Well, I'm jumping in, when i wash my hair...
