Since I started growing my hair out, I've been noticing how many sistas are walking around with badly damaged hair. It ain't even about bein "natural" or "conscious" or whatever. Some of us just need to let it go for the sake of our heads!!

Don't even get me started on the horror stories I've heard/seen at the braiding salon.

Right before I cut it, I'd noticed that my hair had begun to break off in a couple of places. And everyone (including my hairdresser) was always saying how "pretty" and "healthy" my hair was...

But for real (I know, utamoroho...I'm just sayin'), if you're gonna perm your hair, you'd better have a damn good hairdresser.
