Yes, it is a pain about 99 percent of the time, but my hair does see the light every once and a while, and that's what i live for. But no straighener, curler, or any other products are a match for my hair. I have spent endless hours trying to get my hair straight, yet always end up feeling defeated.

They called it a pixie cut.When I got into middle school I asked my Mom if I could let it grow out. To my surprise she said yes. I let it grow and grow. The longest was halfway down my thighs. Long beautiful, curly, thick golden brown hair was mine.

May 9th to be exact-to the surprise of my mother. I have always had thick long hair even before I chemically relaxed my hair when I was 16. It was scary and it still is scary because my grandmother was right. Hair is a women's vanity and comfort at times.
