The Big Chop!

    For the past couple of months, I’ve contemplated doing the big chop. Well for me, it’s not really a big chop because my natural hair is longer than the permed remains of it. I was going to do it over a friend’s place. Oh well. Let me tell you what happened exactly.

    My mother braided my hair a little bit a couple of days ago, and we were taking it out to be styled again. My sister was supposed to be on the way to ride with her to the mall. I asked my mom if she could trim some of my hair. Then I asked her could she cut off all of my permed parts. At first she was reluctant, then she cut it then shaped it up. The scissors made an exciting crisp sound each time she cut the permed bits off.

   When everything was done, it looked great!! The semi curly ‘fro style looks very nice on me. All I had to do was cut some lace, and tie it around my hair. Dang I wish I had a scanner or digital camera to take pictures. It feels weird for me to even like my hairdo so much because of the feelings of frustration that comes first to my mind when I deal with my hair. Right now my hair is a little dry, but in no time it’s going to be soft

   Frustration is what I feel now because my sister isn’t here, yet. I’m ready to go now!!!!!!

PS- I saw Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind last night. It seemed weird that I could relate to Joel. Cuz I’m just a journal writing bore.
