my 100th post!!!
can you believe it? today is my 100th post!
yay.
the funny thing is what i am blogging about for my 100th post. it's positively silly.
today's post is about hair. yes, you heard me right, hair. ever since i was a small fry i've had curly hair.
and i'm sure when i was a child it was darling but as i grew up it became the thorn in my flesh. uncontrollable, frizzy, whacked out curly hair.
below is one of the ways i regularly wear my hair.
blown out with a round brush for the roots and a flat brush for the ends and then straightened with a flat iron.
this is how i mostly wear my hair. {sorry for the awesome awful pic.}
blown out again and styled with a curling iron.
now below my loves is what my hair does when i get out of the shower and simply let it air dry . . .
hello crazy 80's hair. it's actually a lot less curly now since i had my babe but still looks like something straight from a heart music video.
{side note: i also have been dealing with a sinus infection for the past week, i have no make-up on and i'm still in my pajamas. sorry for all the grossness.}
anyhooo . . . i know women always say we should embrace the natural beauty God has given us etc. etc. but is it ok that i just don't like my curly hair? that i would rather straighten it every day if i have to? am i a disgrace to women all over the world? {just kidding about that last part.}
what do you think? and do you have a hair dilemma? please doooo tell.
happy cinco de mayo!!!
