I Have A TWA…And I Love It!!So after tweeting a few times about my temptation to BC, I finally gathered some courage and did it! I’ve always known the look that suited me and when I realized the tapered cut had made a COMEBACK, and seeing how good it still looked on those Pinterest natural boards -  I knew the time had come *in a charismatic pastor’s tone*. Plus my hair had taken a lot of beating and frying this past year in preparation for the wedding & although it was long, I wasn’t crazy about it anymore.

It actually took the below picture from a recent shoot to see what a bad shape my hair was in.

The hair on the nape and crown looked (and is) too short; as for the weak tips I shall not even say a thing – I seriously need to have these patches of my scalp checked by a professional soon, before it becomes too late.

So close to a month ago, I walked into a hair salon and ordered Ntombi to go crazy. Being the scissor happy stylist she is, she didn’t even ask questions and got right into it.

I love how healthy my hair looks now, I’ve even realized I had curls the other day when I was conditioning!! I’m planning to keep this TWA for a year or so until I figure out what really works for my hair (moisture retention, shedding, breaking, styling etc). I mean 6 years post-locs and a couple of BCs of my “Afro” I still don’t know how to make my twist out last longer *shrugs*.

Last week I decided to DIY colour (Inecto colour Plum) & went back for more cutting on the sides. I’ve now been given orders to never come back unless I want no hair at all on the sides.lol

Some of the stuff I’m looking forward to:

I plan to colour and have fun with it throughout the year.

I also want to try that Chrisette Michelle side part sometime.

Swimming should also be easier as I’ll be able to wash my hair any day after swimming.

MAYBE next year I might decide to grow it again….or maybe go the Lira route and keep it short until I get tired of the look!!

Not sure if the tiny curls are visible but there.:)

My new hair crush

Love,
Me on top of the world!!
