The things people say.

The other day I was sitting on my bed with my best friend and the topic of my dreads came up. She is not really supportive of my nappy head and is verbal in that. She started talking about how I use to have such pretty hair and everything, to which I responded that I feel that my hair is beautiful now. She then said to me, and I quote, "It just isn't NATURAL."I literally turned to her and said, "Are you fucking kidding me?"I asked her what she thought people did before hair brushes and shampoos and conditioners. Hair knots naturally and its these things that we humans have created through out time that stop it from doing so.I just wanted to share because I am sure there are other people out there who hear negative and in my opinion quite ignorant statements about the beautiful mess we have on our heads.xoxo
