NATURAL HAIR PERFECTION/THE STRUGGLE IS REAL

-




Hello loveies!!! Let's say I didn't enjoy it to the latter. And I don't feel guilty saying that.
I've never gone out with my natural hair,  so I decided to give it a try. With all this natural hair reviews going on in the internet I decided try.


Well, I wasn't sure if it's gonna work for me,  but I ascertained myself to go ahead and try it. Seeing all this celebrities like our very own Lupita Nyong'o rocking their natural hair, oh boy! I had to try it, they look amazingly beautiful on it, so why not me.
Am not a fun of washing my own hair and would prefer to do it at the salon,  but this time I was in for it.I went ahead, took my shampoo and conditioner washed it gently and I was done,  came to now detangling it, painful I tell you! Moisturised it ,plaited some 'matutas' ( forgive my French) and waited for the magic to happen.

I was ready to go out with my head high with my own natural hair.I am one of those people who feel they don't look good enough on

 natural hair,  and for that case I prefer covering it with a headscarf when it's not braided.But with my natural hair experiment, I was more than willing to be proud of it, well,  it's not that am not proud, but I was gonna do it with more pride and joy and satisfaction.get me??

As my journey with my own hair continued, I  realised something that comes along with natural hair maintenance, doing it every morning, guys,  this totally gave me a whole bad mood.


Maybe I had set my expectation much high, in a way I'd say I didn't enjoy the experience, but all these blogs making it look easy, then it becomes disappointing when you do it in reality, or perhaps there's something I did miss.I might be making it look even harder but oh boy! I kept missing to go back to my braids. Or maybe I'm not good at it.

How was your experience with natural hair?

Well, hello lovelies. It’s been a hot minute since I’ve logged in to chat here, life lately has been super hectic, super busy to be precise. This year has been whimsical in so many ways.  Hope you've had a great start of the month, as I am writing this in the morning of the beginning of september, I is the start of the month, Its a gloomy day as I look out of the window. I have the idea of writing on the website but i keep postponing to another day. So I wake up and decide to write it before i get out of bed. Oh! as long as I can remember, I wrote a post a few month ago and it got deleted, can you imagine? how dissapointing that was.

Alot to share with you guys, And before I start is there a publishing editor that w...

LOOSEN YOUR GRIP

This thought keeps coming at least twice or thrice a day and each time, it hits me right in my center. I never saw myself as someone with control issues. I am very much a live-and-let-live kinda girl for the most part. I let people do what they want to do and respect everyone having a choice to live their life how they see fit. What I've never taken note of was how in control have to be all the time. Emotionally to feel comfortable and safe. I wasn't controlling others or trying to control my environment, I was controlling myself.  POLICING MYSELF. I was holding so tight to my emotions that my knuckles were turning white. I needed to loosen my grip. I needed to learn to let go of the emotions so that my hands would be free to hold purposeful things. I let go of my grip on my emotions and now I can love, laugh, learn, heal, grow, knowledge, friendships, and the list goes on. Pinterest Images: Loosening my grip also freed up my ability to deal with other p...
