Hey Ladies!
This past weekend, I noticed I had some minor breakage at my nape. My buns are the culprit as I normally wear them low, braided and pinned with no ponytail holders. I've been doing this for years with no issues, but everything has it's limits. I've made the adjustments, and the problem will correct itself....no biggy. However, I thought to myself....."Self, my hair is already beautiful. It's already good enough".
I have a goal of reaching waistlength (which I will have until I reach it....I've got 4 more inches to go)....but, I realized that throughout my hair journey, I've had the wrong attitude. "When it gets this long, I'll be so pleased....when it gets THIS long, I'll be SOOOO excited...." and so on. Well, I'm happy and excited already now. My hair is already great! When I do reach waistlength, it'll simply be healthy, beautiful, and a bit longer.
Let's talk about what we LOVE about our hair RIGHT NOW!
I'll start:
1. It's shiny
2. It's a beautiful natural texture
3. So versatile, I can go from straight to curly and back again!
4. Shrinkage! It can look shorter one day and be brastrap the next!
5. Most of all, It's healthy and even. I keep my ends nice, and I LOVE that about my hair!
