Now that I have been a loyal (and frequently posting 
) member of LHCF for coming up on 8 months, i have realized that my views on who can touch my hair have changed drastically. my mom was always picky about who she let do my hair (her, my aunt, my cousin, or my mom's hairdresser ONLY), and you KNOW it always goes downhill after you get out on your own. in my first 2 years of college i think i went to 3 or 4 different hairstylists, 2 of those who really JACKED my hair up with the bleaching and back-to-back sew ins and all. when my mom and i discovered the dominican salon and began transitioning, they were the only ones who touched our hair.
after i joined LHCF, i got very excited about all the stuff i was learning so it was just me for a few months, except the one time in may the lady BEGGED me to let her put that blow dryer to my roots. (hey, she did it for free...) after my bc in june, for which my mom helped me, it was ME doing the cowashing, the DCing, the kinky twists...and that got me through till october, when i wanted to get a blowout for old times sake. i was so appalled by that stingy little 8 minute DC and the amount of heat i was being subjected to that i vowed NEVER AGAIN...plus my ponytail rollersets come out WAY better than that blowout, which was ruined 10 mins after i left the shop! needless to say i can't imagine myself letting anyone but me or mom touch my hair again.
i know it is the same way for some of you guys, even the relaxed heads - i see you with your tub of mizani over there! when did this change come for you? if it hasn't, why not?
