bad hair day

As part of my going-natural process, my bad hair days are on the rise :-/ On a day-to-day basis, I never quite know how my hair is going to turn out. The funny thing is, that is one of the things that a lot of long-time naturals (on the blogs I've been following) cite as being among their favorite parts of having natural hair. I think it's just more frustrating for me because I'm still transitioning and I haven't quite gotten my hair routine down.


I have a black tie event tonight for work and I'm not feeling great about how my hair is going to look in a formal setting. I co-washed my hair night before last so I kinda assumed it would be alright for today with a simple re-wetting via spray bottle...not so much. It looks/feels dry and frizzy :-(


This morning I've been going back and forth trying to decide whether I can justify (financially and practically) going to the hairdresser this weekend...it would basically make it my 3rd trip in like a 6 week period...way more than I usually go. And I'd have to drop $60+ just to cut off a biiiiit more (b/c I don't want to totally BC yet...at least i don't think i do but you never know!!!) of my relaxed ends. Sigh. At the same time, I'd rather spend the money and feel good (better) about the way I look lol. And for those of you thinking "Oh just go to Super Cuts" or one of those cheap walk-in salons....Never again!! I did it once and it was not smart...at least not for someone with my texture/cut.


Guess I'll go ahead and give Perry a call....




Today's *big chune* isn't new or anything but it just popped into my head and it's a really pretty reggae duet...and shockingly (for a caribbean-artist) the music video is actually pretty good lol.
Taurus Riley and Alaine: Forever More
