I realized today that I don't want to keep on damaging my hair by getting it dyed 3-4 times a year to up keep a hair color I wasn't born with.
This is close to my natural color (Soft Black) by Nutrisse.
It was cheap, fast and easy.
My hair looks amazing...no really it does.
It's a beautiful black and I feel so good about myself right now.
I keep looking in the mirror and I like what I see.
I am just going to let it fade out..it won't be as noticeable.
Natural beauty is so important and it's the one thing that will make you truly love your body, hair, etc.
Last year, I had to learn that lesson the hard way.
I was leaving for a vacation and I wanted to look my best.
So, I went tanning....
I got my hair cut...
& my eyebrows done.
The tanning turned out horrible (spray tan). I have been in sun beds, too before but this was last minute and nothing was open.
So, I got a spray tan.
Umpa lumpa...
I looked orange and the tanning product dripped down my legs and it stained them..so my feet looked dirty!
I spent hours trying to scrub it off..nothing worked.
I got my hair cut..and it turn out bad!
Layers were all over the place..
I got my eyebrows and the lady did them too thin!
Ugh.... It was horrible!
I realized I didn't even need a tan, hair cut, or my eyebrows done!
I spent most of my vacation explaining why my feet looked like they have been tap dancing in mud.
People asking me where my eyebrows went? I don't know..some place I wish was, too so I wouldn't have to face this shame!
I am going to try my best to keep my natural beauty going...
wear less make-up..
no more hair dying..
tanning...
dressing like what's "in style", but rather just what I like.
Eh...
Anyone have a similar experience?
Lets toast to our natural beauty!
Love, M
