that may not be shit to you, but that’s amazing to me. =]
Anywho, I’ve been battling with this palm rolling vs. latching thing for about two months now. I got them latched in like June, and they looked SO dope and neat and whatnot, however, after about a month, I felt a difference in some of them. they felt thin or skinnier than toward the bottom. And it dawned on me that they weren’t gonna thicken up like the rest of them. This bothers me. When palm rolling, my hair will look fine, but it’s so spongy and soft that pretty soon, they just unravel.
Any clue what I should do? What should i use? I was using just coconut oil and water to retwist for about three or four months, but now, these babies require more lol.
Any suggestions?
View Larger I let the electrician at my job go through my phone on our break. He tells #me, “yes honey, this is the one!” I said, “what do you mean?” He says, “I’d go straight for this one!” I absolutely love #gay men. #hair #makeup #iaminkwellj (Taken with Instagram)
we were not meant to be plucked
or blown for wishes
we were not mean to be centerpieces
we were not meant to match garlands
or to be tucked under your noses
we were not meant to be plucked
there were no directions given on our existence
unfortunately
we have only been told to be pretty
and kind
to smell good
and grow as the grass grows
dip when shoved by the tangible invisibility of the wind
but never allowed to speak
we were not meant to be plucked
uprooted
even petals give character
but never meant to be pulled from our heads
in a lesser fashion
our bloom was not mean to be limited
our bloom is quite the opposite
it is a shrieking kind of thing
screaming “freedom” and “black noise”
out of our follicles
the beauty in being a flower is
no one knows you’ve weathered any kind of storm
until you’ve been plucked from your roots
your petals, snatched from your scalp
your thorns
bent and flicked off of your skin
your defenses
completely taken away
sitting in a glass of water
and told, “you are beautiful”
as you die
Soooooo, I told y’all I’m trying to get into wig modeling. No joke anymore. It seems simple enough. Give ‘em face and they’ll buy the wig, right?
Annnnnywho, I rocked this one yesterday, got muchos muchos love, but to be honest, I was so over it by the end of the night. I was ready to get back to my locs and chill.
View Larger look what my blind ass found. hahaha
if people can submit pix of your hair to show how beautiful her naturally curly hair is and will be when she gets older, that would be great. i’ll repost this later.
i showed her pix of TGAW (Those Girls Are Wild), Santini, Yaniibam, and some other tumblr blogs, but I want other people to submit or suggest blogs I should check out.
