A Hair in the Head is Worth Two in the Brush...

For all of you that know me you know I never brag about anything. And I'm not now...Just telling a story about "My Hair"... My hair used to be average. It was thick but it wasn't curly or straight, it was just there. Never really knew what to do with it. As a teenager in the 80's, I would get a perm. That was the thing THEN, to have wicked, curly, BIG hair. In the 90's my 80's hairstyle was getting old but I just didn't know what to do with it. My hair had this awkward wave but nothing I was overjoyed about. I would cut it short then grow it LONNGGGUGH. Never satisfied. Then I had Katherine and she wanted to PULL my hair so I cut it shorter. I noticed one day when I had washed my hair and not had time to dry it (happens frequently when your a new mom) that it seemed a bit "wavier" than usual. I used to blow-dry and brush my hair at the same time into some sort of style so I never saw much else but straight hair. I went out and bought a diffuser and my hair had curls! It either went away or I did something wrong. Then I had Matt. When he was 2 I went to REGIS and spent A LOT of MONEY. I got my hair cut, colored and highlighted. I asked the hairstylist what I could DO with my hair. Maybe roll it or something? She said, "Are you crazy? You have beautiful curls already in your hair!". I can proudly say that I haven't used a brush now in 6 years! After Gabriel was born it got even curlier. Roger said if I had any more children I would have a "FRO". God knew at the time he was going to give me Gabriel so he traded up and gave me one easy thing in my life! I can go 3 days without washing my hair and the crappier it looks the more compliments I get... Go figure. Some girl at the drive-in window at Krystals told me I had beautiful hair and did I roll it? 3 DAYS NOT WASHED!!! I put my fingers through my hair, spray it and go. Other common comments: Who does your hair? - How do you roll it? - Where do you get your hair done? - Is that your natural hair? - Can I get a sample DNA of your hair for my future child? And last but not least from a smart-alec in the family that doesn't read this blog... "OH, SO YOU JUST WOKE UP ONE DAY WITH CURLY HAIR?
YES... I DID!!!
