Maybe I'm venting, I'm not sure. But for months now I've been wanting to relax my hair and I've been wanting to stay natural. I go back and forth between these thoughts in my mind like a ping pong match. It's driving me crazy ! I have more naturals on my fotki Inspiration list than relaxed or texlaxed persons... But still, it seems so appealing at times.
Maybe it's because I've been wearing a short wig consistently since summer 2007, and I'm wanting to wear my hair out. Even then, I'm not sure because when I take the cornrows I love how my natural feels, but not how it looks. When I was relaxed I didn't like how my hair felt, but I like the ease at which I could comb and style it. I just wish I could find peace with my hair. It's always one thing or another. I've been bald, natural, and relaxed. None is better than the other, IMO. I've been miserable in all those states, and I've had things I like about all of them.
This is life isn't it. Not so clear cut.
