Merry Christmas Ya'll

So Christmas is over and I am finally at home and relaxing after some stressful weeks. My hair is growing to a nice length at the moment and I am pretty pleased with the outcome so far. I just want to make my hair big and have it stay big. Maybe this is something I can try for New Year's. I want volume to the maximum.

Anyway, I came home and Good Hair was on tv. If you haven't seen it, it is pretty interesting to watch. The amount of chemicals they use in their hair is very toxic. Now, as a child I did get perms and thought nothing of the chemical process involved as why would I as a child; all I knew was I just wanted curly hair.

The crazy part is, they have 3 year olds putting a relaxer in their hair, which I personally think is really young. As a big fan of afros, I would never probably do that to my child, but who knows. Maybe it is really difficult to maintain and having really fine thin hair, I will never fully understand the challenges.

Seeing how much work these women put into their hair is making me feel really lazy about my style. I never put my hair up or do anything really exciting to it. And since I spend half my time thinking about hair, you think I would.

This one woman flew from Colorado to NYC to get her hair done. Wow, this movie is totally fascinating. I remember wanting to see it when it first came out, but at least I am now.

We need more movies about hair. That is my final statement.
