I’ve always loved curly hair,
But I never knew how to maintain it.
I didn’t even know my hair was considered curly.
I just thought it was always frizzy because I never took care of it.
I got a protein treatment once,
And on that day, the hairdresser washed it and dried it with a blow dryer.
The blow dryer made it really frizzy.
I had never seen my hair like that before.
She took a before and after picture.
One of the customers liked my hair after it was done,
So the hairdresser showed her the before picture.
The customer exclaimed in shock.
I felt really bad.
I didn’t know what to say.
I didn’t let my annoyance show.
I enjoyed having straight hair for a while.
That’s until I found a group that helps women take care of their natural hair, whether it was curly or straight.
I followed the instructions and started taking care of it.
I was satisfied with the results.
I started reading more into it.
I love my hair now.
I’ve learned how to style it without damaging it.
I’m happy people like it too.
