Hair Today.......

Alright peoples, your girl has made a decision.  So I was having a miserable time with my hair on Tuesday.  I mean your girl was frustrated and just sick and tired of my hair.  So guess what happened on Wednesday?  Yep, I had the best hair day and then today my hair just looks amazing.  LOL it's like it has a mind of it's own and figured out that I was about to do something drastic so it started to act right.  Hair today and it was about to be gone tomorrow lol.  But I am still going to wrap it up or something.  I'm thinking about doing kinky twists or nubian knots.  I'm not quite sure, but I'm going to do something.  I think that I need to give my hair a rest. 

Ok on another note, I am also working on being a better me completely.  I'm getting healthy both in my diet, by exercising and of course taking care of my hair.  So anyone with advise, I'm happy to hear it. Oh and here's my wonderful hair today......

My Natural Hair Confession

Your girl has a natural hair confession to make.  I'm having a moment with my hair, I'm FRUSTRATED!!!.  I sooo love being natural, but Lawd have mercy am I tired of it right now.  I'm soo ready to do something with it like put a pair of scissors to it or a flat iron.  I know, I have heard "heat is the devil" said by one of my natural hair mentors on youtube that I admire.  I have been natural for about a year and a few months now.  And while I am enjoying my natural hair, I have moments where I can't figure out what to do with it.  It's not a twa anymore, but it's not shoulder lenght either.  Yes I watch the videos and sometimes my hair does what I need it to do and other times, well, let's just say that today is one of those days.  So I'm frustrated about my hair.  Ever feel that way? And what do you do when you feel like that?  I'm thinking two strand twists, or something.  Stay tuned and we'll see what's next.

The Girl Next Door

Hello All,

Welcome to my blog.  I am fairly new to the blogging experience, but I wanted to start off by saying Hello, and introducing myself and my blog.  I'm a 30 something woman of carribean decent.  I was born in the US, but raised like a west indian in every way.  I recently decided to make some changes in my life and become healthier.  So I started by going natural, which has lead to a lot of other things.  Why is my blog called "Your Girl Next Door"?  Because I am the girl next door.  And I'll be blogging about all those things that we ladies like to talk about.  From hair care to relationships to fashion to health to music to current events.  There is no topic that is off limits.  I'll keep it honest, real and respectful.  I look forward to our talks.

Your girl next door!!!!
