SUPPORT AT HOME

WELL MY SO HAS A THING FOR LONG HAIR.. WHEN WE FIRST MET MY HAIR WAS CUT IN LAYERS WITH THE LONGEST ONE BEING ABOUT APL.. FAST FORWARD 3 YEARS AND WE MEET AGAIN MY HAIR IS A H.A.M. TO SAY THE LEAST... THE COLOR I HAD WAS GETTING TOO EXPENSIVE SO AFTER HE SAID HE DIDNT CARE FOR IT MUCH I WENT AHEAD AND DARKENED IT CLOSE TO MY NATURAL COLOR... HE SAID IT WAS TOO DARK.. FAST FORWARD 1 YEAR LATER I LIGHTENED IT WHILE HE WAS OUT OF TOWN AND UPON SEEING HIM, LOW AND BEHOLD ITS TO "REDDISH" ( IT WAS LIGHT GOLDEN BROWN) SO FAST FORWARD 1 MONTH.. I FOUND LHCF AND BEGAN TO GROW IT OUT.. FAST FORWARD 5 MORE MONTHS WHEN I DECIDE TO GO NATURAL.. ALL THE WHILE HE'S COMPLAINING THAT HE WANTS ME TO COLOR MY HAIR TO MATCH MY ROOTS AGAIN BECAUSE IT WAS GROWING OUT SOOO MUCH.. I IGNORED HIM.. AND TOLD HIM OF MY PLANS TO NOT USE CHEMICALS AT ALL... JUST GROW EVERYTHING OUT ALL TOGETHER...

HES BEEN KINDA OF DOUBTFUL ABOUT MY TEXTURE, BUT HES SEEING MORE OF IT AND HE KEEPS SAYING HE'S TOTALLY SUPPORTIVE OF ME GOING NATURAL..

SO THIS WEEKEND I TOOK MY BUN DOWN AND WAS HEADING TO THE SHOWER AND HE COMES TO ME AND GIVES ME A HUG AND SAYS "OOHHH I LIKE THIS PIECE OF HAIR RIGHT HERE" SO IM LIKE "COME SHOW ME IN THE BATHROOM" WE GO IN AND HE HOLDS IT UP AND HES LIKE "THIS IS PRETTY." SO WE STAND THERE FOR A SECOND AND HE SAYS "IF YOUR HAIR LOOKED LIKE THIS WHEN YOU WERE YOUNGER, WHY WOULD YOU EVER PUT COLOR AND RELAXERS ON IT" SO I EXPLAIN... THEN HE SAYS "YOU NEED TO GO TO A PROFESSIONAL AND TELL THEM TO CUT THIS MUCH OFF" (STOPS AT THE COLOR LINE) AND I SAY "WELL I CANT DO THAT NOW BECAUSE MY HAIR WOULD BE TOO SHORT", HE THINKS ABOUT IT AND AGREES... LATER I THANKED HIM FOR SAYING THOSE THINGS TO ME..

I ALWAYS READ ABOUT LADIES WHO GO THROUGH THIS TRANSITION WITH THEIR HAIR AND THE PEOPLE THEY HAVE TO BE AROUND EVERYDAY ARENT SUPPORTIVE... IT SUCKS BECAUSE I KNOW HOW HARD IT IS ALREADY TO HAVE TO ROCK BUNS EVERYDAY AND WORRY ABOUT YOUR EDGES LAYING DOWN, AND COMING UP WITH CREATIVE STYLES THAT LOOK DECENT..

BUT IM GRATEFUL TO HAVE THE ONE I LOVE.. LOVE MY HAIR.. THANKS BABE!!
