I have a New Years Resolution this year. It has to do with hair styles.
This year, I'm going to love myself as the natural me. I'm going to wear my hair straight.
Although this probably sounds like nothing, it's actually a huge step toward an easier life. I've always longed for beautiful wavy hair styles. I always imagined my hair in long gorgeous waves with loads and loads of texture. I envisioned how glorious it would be to simply put my hair up with all that exciting dimension and texture. In reality, achieving this natural look actually took a ton of work. Wavy hair styles on silky straight hair was a lot of hard work to achieve. On some days, my hair was so stubborn, it didn't want to wave. I was frustrated, anguished and hating myself.
After hearing my friend with wavy hair long for straight hair, I decided that maybe it wasn't the hair that I needed to change. What I needed to change was the way I thought. So, instead of going wavy, I decided I'm going to go naturally straight. I'm going to use hair products that enhance my hair, rather than transform it.
