Hair Changes...

Well, it's been a minute...again, my bad! Many shout-outs to my faithful readers and followers!

My napptural hair is changing!! I am so clueless right now on what to do with it! Therefore, I am just letting it do what it do...grow! I now have approximately 4 inches and it has been almost five months (May 5th) since my BC. I have these very tight kinky coils that resemble the spring in a retractable ink pen. Yeah! No comb goes near this head now! Btw, I also have straight strands coming in...say what?? Who knows? But this is a journey, right? Indeed, I am just in the passenger seat with my natural tresses driving!

Well, time to deep conditioner this natural hair!

Color Issues...

It's been a while...my bad! I still love ya, though...lol! Now, down to the business! I have been busy trying to find a different look for my fro. I decided to color it a shade of red/voilet today. My natural hair color is dark red/brown. So you know what happened, right? It has not made a dramatic difference! My hair is this dark brown--no red/voilet! Augh! Anywho, it's semi-permanent meaning it will be out in a couple of weeks. Maybe I will go lighter... Who knows? Maybe it's trying to tell me something like "leave color where it is"...

In other news, I went to my first Poetry show/contest. It was held at Huger's in Charleston, SC. The atmosphere was very nice and I definitely plan to go again. I was supposed to perform (my sis-n-law-to-be signed me up) but I declined because I wanted to feel out the spot. Well, once I heard the other poets, I knew that I could shut it down! However, my procrastination made me miss my time to shine. Btw, one of the contests were an Erotic Poetry Contest...enough said. If you know me personally, you know about my book. I would have won that too! For sho'! A dude won the cash prize--named 25 to Life. One newbie dropped out after the first round...he had guts though. More than I had...at the moment! lol

I will keep you posted on my hair color issues and the poetry. Stay tuned!
