Fried hair! keeping it real!


I was looking for a before photo to show you! The one before I cooked my hair with the hair straightener! Couldn't find one! But came across this one!


Taken at my 18th birthday party! It is a sweet photo of my Dad and me! One of those rare photos that I like of myself! If you click on the photo you can see HOW long my hair used to be!!! Until kids came along!

I look at that photo and how innocent everything was then. How much struggle was to lay a head of me. Would I done anything different then if I had known? I don't think so! Because it would not have lead me to the road I am on now!



Here is a photo taken today! After the needed hair cut from cooking my hair! This is the shortest I have ever been! I am still working on doing it so it looks nice! As you can tell I haven't worked it out YET!
But I look into this photo!


I am not as Innocent as I was. I am fatter! LOL! AND still have pimples!

But I am a mother to 4 children,
I am a wife,
I work hard at my job,
I am studying hard to better my self,
I need to be a better friend,
and think more about others.

I still doubt myself but really trying hard to stop that!



This post was going to be the funny one on HOW I fried my hair but turned into a big self reflection.......

I think you are more beautiful now because you face shows signs of experience. That is something an 18 year old doesn't have.
Oh ..and I know this is probably going to freak you out
But your Dad was a HOTTY!
He doesn't own a cowboy hat, does he????

You look great. I could be wrong, but i dont think you have pimples, it looks more like rosesea. I used to have that on my cheeks near my hairline. They have cream for it from a dermatologist. I also chopped my hair last August. Its just what moms do

My hair use to be down near my butt... look at it now... I find it so much more easier to look after when it is short and it is alot cooler... at least here in Florida.
