Hey Ladies!
I received an email the other day from a reader (TL) who shared with me her excitement about starting her journey to becoming all natural. Her reason for going natural was so touching that I have decided to share it with you all too!:
" I am a newbie to this process of transitioning. I came across your blogs while trying to research this process. I have only been transitioning since June 20 but am sooooo excited about the process. The main reason I decided to transition is for my daughter. My daughter's hair texture is one that gets really frizzy within seconds (literally). She wears ponytails and braids mainly...but recently she asked if she could get a perm. Mainly because she is wanting to wear her hair down without it puffing up. One day she came to me and stated that she wanted a perm because she wanted her hair to be pretty and "like the girls on the box." I tried to explain to her that her hair is gorgeous just the way it is and that she doesn't need a perm to make it pretty. At that moment, my 6 year old daughter taught me a lesson I will never EVER forget....her response was..."but Momma you get a perm to make your hair pretty". I vowed that I would never be the type of mother who said do as I say not as I do....and that I would however, lead by example. So now my baby and I will be natural together.
Thank you so much for all the informative blogs that you create. Seeing your blogs have made me more excited and even stronger to continue this journey. STAY BLESSED!!
