Kelly Moreira for Gap Clothing

This is how I feel when my fro is out. Can’t touch this, duh nuh nuh nuh.
But no fareals, I had a conversation with this dude at the club and he’s like “It’s really good that you let your hair out and you don’t straighten it all the time like those other chics do.” Talk about ego boost; it’s funny because my sister right next to me (gettin her groove on) is the exact opposite- her and her straightening iron are best friends everyday. Curly hair is not an option. That kinda urges me to try and discover more things to do with my hair and hey if I get tired dreads are always an option. I guess I’m still fighting with myself to do the generic straightening, so when I get lazy and say “nawp, don’t feel like it” it’s good.
So why can’t/isn’t anyone else trying to break that barrier? Put down those perms/relaxers/irons, go Natural. Anyone?
