For the composite board for my doctoral program.
I guess i’ll put heat on my hair. I don’t trust these unpredictable curls at this awkward length to act right in front of a camera. Hell, I can barely get a decent texture shot for you guys!
Averaging at about once a month and you can totally see where the heat damage ends and the 3 inches of curly roots begin! Let’s hope I don’t blow it!
Knowing my luck, it would just be my arm pit hair…
When you are waiting to possibly hang out
And you realize you shoulda just planned to stay in and tried twisting your hair with some new product you just got!
When will I learn…
Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiit
17 months natural! How ya like my kiddie side puff? Lol
—To compliment my curls.
I mean thanks guise but im feeling really awkward
Since im up to about 85% confident in my natural curls right about now.
Guess i better take it!
First day back at school. First day wearing my hair out and natural in class.
Signed up for a gym membership at a jewish community center, EVERYONE HAS CURLY HAIR THERE!! I love it lol!!
And surprise surprise, a mighty fine brotha was working at the gym desk during my tour. He maaaaay be gay but i dont know/ care, im in love until further notice.
P.s. he was sooo cute I reverted to my bashful preteen version of myself, ie, avoided eye contact. At the end, he asked how I liked the tour. And all I could say was “it’s great!” Then looked away! Lol

It has come to my attention that I have more heat damage than once thought. So really my curl pattern isn’t this loose at all. No wonder I didn’t have the shrinkage I had as a kid.
My moms like… So heat damage is good then?
She doesn’t get it. Clearly….
I want healthy hair and I want it now.
I want delicious ringlets, not this fried zigzag.
Also, i want to start swimming, regularly. Any tips on maintaining healthy hair with all that chlorine?

So I evened out my haircut today and got highlights. Then, diffused my hair. This is exactly what I looked like. :/
Can i just have one look where i actually ooze sexy or am I gonna have to grow this thing alll the way out?
