Someone commented that if her hair was like mine she would never braid it ever again.Usually when someone throws such a comment my way I usually go on a hairxplanation trying to convince them on how possible it for them to rock their hair but this time I didn't. Her comment reminded me of how I used to be that girl.That girl who didn't think that her hair was good enough due to all the _ve comments I received about my hair while growing up and so I keep it short. Her comment reminded me of how I used to admire and envy girls who I used to think had good hair.It reminded me of my cousin who once told me that my husband would become interested in girls out there who "make" their hair is I didn't do something about mine.It reminded of when I started to grow out my my hair and my first attempt on doing a puff and a close friend told me he didn't like the way I did my hair.What if I had given up then? Over the years I have shuttered the myths about my hair.I have learnt that it actually grows.That I don't have to put myself through pain while doing my hair just to fit into the status quo.That I can actually live without going into the salon after every month or so.That my hair actually loves water (no more panicking when it suddenly starts to rain).That I can live dandruff free and most importantly that my hair is BEAUTIFUL kinks and all. #itgrows#selflove #rockingmyfro #naturalhairstyles #4chair#naturalista#rockingmynaturalhair https://www.instagram.com/p/B37iKXpgAlU/?igshid=souguwclvtn5
