My Hair Is Not Here For Your Entertainment

I just spent 10 hours doing my hair yesterday and I am grateful for every last minute of it now that's it's over.  Most of you who know me know that I prefer to take things as soul lessons and I believe my hair is one of those.

My hair takes patience, love, gentleness and care.  I choose not to harm in with chemicals or dyes made from synthetics. I give my hair the best most natural treatment because that's what I deserve.

I admit to being bothered when people tell me they like a certain hairstyle on my head. I graciously say thanks or that it's really not done.  They don't fucking know the different.  These people have no idea because they think the grass is greener or the naps make them uncomfortable so they tell me they like it simply because they don't have it or understand it. There are also the few who actually like it and don't look at me like I am some clown at a circus.

I know I stand out because of all these perm headed girls or the bald head scaly wags.  Is that judgment?  Maybe the scaly wag part.  I have a lot of hair on my head.  If I wore the typical ghetto uniform no one would say anything about my hair.  I am not sure now if I am more bothered by the compliments or the norms.

I've even gotten requests to wear my fro.  This hairstyle is not for you so I don't care if you like it or not. WTF do I look like?  My hair is not hear for your entertainment.  I do love my hair and I love to play with it.  Just understand that it's not for you... Who the fuck gets hair requests?  I'm going to try that shit out and see the strange ass looks on these people's faces.

Here is another layer.  I only get compliments from white folk and other naturals.  The other people don't even notice me and when they do, they probably say, I can't do nappy hair.

Heh, I am glad I was made big enough to handle something so wonderful as my kinky curly thick hair.  If I couldn't handle that, I'd probably be way behind on my spiritual evolution.

No judgment for you other folk.  Remember, this blog is called my soul daily, not your soul daily...

Take what works for you and leave the rest.

Namaste!
