The reason we pride ourselves on our hair, is because it is our crown and glory [vision wise] but when will we wise up and realize that the real crown is what we wear under our hair?? To answer that...I say this: We can not direct our eyes to something that we can not physically see. Our intellegnce, does not require weave, perms, twists or braids...no color, no cut and style...
You see? we can not see the real crown under our hair because we are too busy looking at the "outward" rather than the "inward"....
Im not going to sit here, and act like I don't try to style my hair and look cute every once in a while [weave, perm, flat irons & curles]...but if there is ONE thing I have learned over the last 6 months, its that NATURAL hair, allows me to have more money in my pocket [cause im not out buying the latest hair products, weaves & salon visits.] its also allowed my hair to ACTUALLY grow...and I feel more at peace with myself. I can let my fiance run his fingers through my hair, I can get my hair wet and not care. I can run and play without worrying about if I look "pretty"...
Some women don't realize...that they've become prisoners of their own hair. It regulates how they spend their summer days. If its humid, they'll stay in [or perm]...if its raining...they'll keep from the beauty of nature's shower. Its always something that the hair can not with-stand...when its NOT natural. I run FREE when i don't have to worry about my hair. If a man can see the beauty in my natural hair, then I know I am loved for WHO and WHAT I am...my hair is not silky like a white girl's hair...so why should go through the suffering of harsh chemicals to be something Im not? ONLY unless its something I CHOOSE to do...not because I feel like its the ONLY way I will be accepted.
