I have had my locks for a month now and I am loving it. I went to Durham last week to visit a friend of mine. The weather was nice. I'm a Michigander so it was warmer than I was use to. Hot and humid but you could not tell I was in any distress with the way my hair looked. Guess what! All I took for my hair was a few perm rods, some fashionable hair pins (which is what I'm wearing in this pic, just hard to see them), some rubber bands, and my shampoo. I was just so pleased with the looooow manintence of my hair. I still have permed ends so I put in a few braids, put perm rods on the ends, blow dried it for about 5 minutes and I was looking good. Here it doesn't look full like it normally is and that's because I found these fashionable hairpins and was able to pull my hair back around my ears. It was so cute. I got so many compliments. Honestly, I know many have said this, but I don't know what took me this long to go natural.
