WOW!!! I always wanted a blog but I never really felt I had anything important to say.So why blog now? Cause I never realized that the natural hair of a black female is so serious until a couple of months ago. I'm B and this is my Krazy Kinky Senior Year...
At the moment I am transitioning which means that instead of the BC " big chop" (cutting all the perm out of my hair) I'm letting my natural hair grow out as I slowly cut the ends off of my permed hair. I had originally planned to do the BC and wear sew in (weaves) until I felt my hair had grown to my liking but my mother objected. Unfortunately having short, nappy hair isn't associated with being classy,professional,beautiful, or any other nice word you can think of.
I'll be the first to go natural in my family so it's kind of a big deal especially when it's senior year and my hair is expected to look always fabulous for senior pics,homecoming,prom..etc. My family thus far doesn't understand why I wouldn't want a perm. Somewhere down the line society figured that if your hair isn't silky straight your not a beauty.Come along with me on my journey because from what I have seen it's going to be a kinky ride...
