When I was in my middle school years I always felt insecure about my curly hair. It was very thick, course, poofy and frizzy. I hated everything about my hair and wanted to shave it off. So I started straightening my hair for years, always experimenting with new hair products to get my hair silky straight. Still to this day I straighten my hair because I feel like I can't do anything with my natural curly hair and I don't know how to manage it the right way. I dug a hole for myself because instead of spending the years working with my natural curly hair, I worked against it. I don't want anyone to feel like their natural hair is ugly or flawed like how I did. I want to show people ways in how to manage their natural hair without feeling like they need to rely on chemicals or straighteners to feel beautiful. I want people to see their hair as natural, beautiful, and flawless.
