Living The Dream.....

It has been 1 Year since I decided to go all natural !!!

One year ago, there was absolutely NO WAY I was going to do a big chop... I simply refused to have short hair...

.....and then some 21 weeks later, I decided not to fight anymore, and just cut off all the remaining relaxed ends!! Some long term, no BC transition I had !!

I never would have imagined making it this far in my hair journey a year ago. If you would have told me that a Big Chop was coming and that I'd be natural long before my 24th birthday, I would have looked at you like you were lying through your teeth !

I say all this just to remind you, don't be afraid to dream big ! I have the hair of my DREAMS and I'm enjoying watching it grow out healthy and strong.

  1. Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

    I don't know who wrote this but I got it from Sunshine on her Naturalhairnaturalproducts bolg. Just wanted to share.
