I Cut My Hair!

After much debate, and months of “should I” or “should I not”, I decided to cut my hair! I had been reading hair blogs, and had been watching from the sidelines, my best friends journey…and was amazed at how much her hair has grown since her “big chop”. I was looking at a recent photo of her hair (Maxine..lol), and without hesitation grabbed a pair of scissors, grabbed a lock of hair..and then..proceeded to cut! After the first few cuts, I looked in the mirror and said, “Jacita, what the heck did you just do?? At this point there was no turning back, I had to cut the rest. My husband was with me, and to my surprise, was cheering me on. Being married to me for almost 8 years, he was fully aware of my hair woes. I was an addict. Addicted to the “creamy crack…yes the PERM! But, it was taking out my hair, therefore, not allowing it to grow. I knew that if I wanted length, I would have to go natural..and that would mean..no more relaxers! And after months of tossing the idea around in my head, I decided to pick up the scissors and cut before I could change my mind. Here is the result…after curling it:)
