I Am Not My Hair
In High School I was all about my hair .
I wouldn't leave the house without my begining straighten .
And when it time for a touch up I wasn't going anywhere
without a fresh relaxer .
I've always had short hair and allowed other people
opinions to get to me so i started gluing in my weave .
Over the past 6 years you didn't see me without weave .
I allowed over people to make me feel bad about myself .
Last October i finally had my epiphany .
I took out my weaver and embraced my natural hair
Im so in love with my natural hair .
In a way I feel really free
People still have their opinions ( mostly family memebers)
But I'm finally at a place where I DONT CARE
I grew up in family thinking hair was everything
I get funny looks at when i go to family events
I feel sorry for them
I'm not saying everyone should go natural but dont let someone else
negative comments influence you.
Embrace yourself . Love yourself
xoxo,
Brittany Morgan
