embracing my natural curls has been a part of learning to embrace and accept myself more fully 🌪 hair care does not start and end with products and hair care methods. the most common part I see others missing is how they’re approaching their own beauty. time after time, I meet curly heads whom repeat the same mantras. How their hair isn’t curly, bouncy, or beautiful “enough”. it breaks my heart because i see my old self in them. i had to really sit down with myself and backtrack where ideologies around beauty were born. how patriarchal and white norms have been seamlessly incorporated into beauty ideal for decades. but here’s the thing, we cant really expect change to happen if were doing the same thing. and you cant expect your approach to your hair to change, if you’re feeding it internally with all the ways it’s not good enough. embracing my natural hair has meant to let go of the idea of what I think is best for my hair and allow it for show me. I keep repeating how it’s a entity of its own, when I started to understand that on a deeper level I was able to slowly and surely shift the internal landscape of acceptance. It’s a process, but you can expect change if you’re bringing yourself down internally. The inner monologue needs to shift into a compassionate attitude, here’s where we start cultivating a more loving tone to ourselves and all the lies we’ve accepted that we in some way, aren’t enough! P.S. if you didn’t get the memo, know you’re enough exactly as you are. And I love you. — s #sarache #sarache #keepitcurly #curlycommunity #curlynaturalhair #curlyhairstigma #stigma #curlystigma #curlyhaircare #naturalcurls #naturalhairstyles #curl #curlygirlmethod #curlynaturalhair #girlswithcurls #curlyhairtips #haircare #haircaretips #haircareroutine #curlyhaircare #eclipseseason #scorpio #naturalcurly #courlyhairjourney #holistichaircare #innerbeauty (at Stockholm, Sweden) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bzv4IlhpaKm/?igshid=10xdw7no4h0pq
