Why I Decided to Stay Natural and Burn The Weave




In this video I describe my journey with Natural hair and my feelings towards lace front wigs and weaves. I don't understand why I hate them so much now. I don't know if it's my pregnancy hormones or just maturity, I just can't stand it any longer. Now every time I see a girl with a head full of weave or a wig on, I wonder if she is insecure about her natural hair. I feel much more beautiful, because what you see is what you get. I don't have to hide or surprise anyone. I can't wait to share more with you in the future.

Great $1.00 Thrift Store Dress For My Pregnant Belly

This was a great Thrifting find. I purchased this dress from the Love of Jesus Thirty Store in South Richmond for only $1.00! It's long enough so I can wear tall boots. It's not too big, but comfy enough for my growing belly. I wore it out and it gained me so many compliments and some inappropriate stares by some men, who I thought weren't quite sure if they wanted to holla or not. LMAO. So pathetic... uggh pregnancy.

I really like this great dress. I paired it with a scarf and a beaded necklace I scored at a vintage shop in Carytown (which at the moment I can't remember, so forgive me). I also wore my favorite boots of the season. It was a great day. Great to finally be back. :-)

I decided I'm committing to my natural hair, so this was the final day of the weave. See how depressed I look with it on. It just feels heavy and unnecessary. So away it goes. Might burn it and post the pics online. Who knows.
