I've been natural for a long time. Since right out of high school, but I've just begun to take care of my hair since finding LHCF. I LOVE my new found curls and I love even more that my bf is so supportive of my natural "do". So I'm growing it out, right? And I'm wearing all kinds of protective styles. Well wiggin it is right up my alley! Plus I get to care for my hair underneath and see all the different changes.
On 12/20/08, I'd been really showing my hair care for about a month. I'd introduced ayurvedic powders and oils and my hair was just so pretty to me one day that I decided to take pics! (see below) And on top of that, I was just so PROUD of my beautiful curls that I'd even downloaded the pics to a public computer at work so that I could share them with a couple of my girlfriends. I left them on the desktop so that I'd have easy access to them. I saw other pics up there, so didn't think anyone would notice them or care.
Well today, this girl that sits near me at work says, "Did you know there are pictures of you on this computer?!" I'd deleted them by that time so I said, "There were." And she says, "Yeah, you were all smiling and stuff and your hair looked jacked!"
She, of course, thought what she'd said was hillarious. My immediate response was, "It did not!" I was outraged. And then she kept talking as if she hadn't just said something so offensive. What really gets me is that she's always looking at my wigs and complimenting me on how "pretty" my hair is. But my natural hair looks jacked? What the H E double hockey sticks?! And then she had the nerve to say it in such a cavalier manner, as if I was going to say something like, "Yeah, my natural hair does look pretty crazy! Ha ha ha..." Right....
I mean, I know she's a fool. And I KNOW my hair is beautiful. And she isn't anybody special. But she still ticked me off.
Below are the pics she saw.
