My New Decision!

One day in May I decided to go natural with my hair. What sparked this? Earlier I chose a healthy eating lifestyle. It was difficult at first but I am sticking with it. I removed junk food out of my diet, I started cooking meals more, and I cut back on the pork I ate. It has made a huge difference in my life. I have more energy. I feel better. So I thought about my hair. My hair was very unhealthy. It was always shredding. I am a college student and a single mom so I don't have the money to go to salon. I was just tired of spending so much time on my hair. So I stopped perming my hair. At first I thought it was going to be really hard. I was surprised because I enjoyed the process. I didn't freak out when my hair was straight around the edges. Each month the new growth grew thicker and thicker and I was loving it. During the process of transitioning I did my research. I asked others for advice and browsed the internet on hair care tips.

This week I cut all my permed hair off. Yes I cut my own hair. I had no clue. I was up about 11:30 at night. I just grab my scissors and began to cut it all off. I can not tell you how happy I am that I cut my hair. It is so easy to manage. I just wash my hair and go. It's like a 10 minute process. There are people who loved my new hairstyle and then there are people who wonder why did I cut my hair. I don't care. I am so happy for the decision I made. It was such a big step in my life.

I am unsure if I will let it grow out or keep it short just yet. There is so much I can do. Right now I am just enjoying the short style.
