Goodness, thirteen years ago I actually thought those girls in Oakland, CA with the ultra tight ponytails gelled back were it! I was twenty and had just moved there with my streaked individuals that my cousin hated. I was sooo disappointed
that after TORTURING my tresses, I couldn't acheive the same look.
Now that I am much more informed, I don't see those Susan Taylor hairlines as something to be envied. These days when I see styles that are damaging, I just cringe. I want to direct them all to this board!
I saw a girl yesterday with really tiny individuals that I used to think were darling. All I saw was breakage and didn't even notice whether or not the style looked good, I was just worried for her hair.
Even the style I am rocking right now had me initially concerned. My hair is cornrowed without extensions, but she uses a little gel at the beginning and at first I objected. I keep my hair moisturized, so it really isn't a problem. If it were, she would have to stop!
Anyway, I am very happy to have a change in attitude! Has being a part of hair boards changed your way of thinking too?
