Have I been busy!!!

What a whirlwind these past few months!!! Let's do a rundown of my activities:

I decided to be a nappyhead

I went natural a few years ago before my son was born but it didn't last very long. After being inspired by my girl, I decided to do it again and stick with it. I cut my hair September 1st after about 4 months of transitioning. Here is what I've learned:

1. My hair is a reflection of change in my life. When I started transitioning, I changed my hairstyle from one that was essentially a straight hairstyle to a curly one within a matter of weeks. One of my colleagues said I was going thorugh a state of transition in my life and my hair was simply reflecting that. At the time, I wasn't doing anything drastic nor did I foresee any drastic changes in the future. However, I didn't discount what she said and I simply held on to that.
