Working those CURLS!
When I began my natural hair journey, one of the first things that crossed my mind was "how would my hair be perceived at my job." Would they still see me as the professional that I am when I was rocking my natural curls?
To my surprise, the first day I went to work rocking my natural hair was filled with compliments. I even had an interview wearing my natural curls and guess what! I got the job.
I have found that the negative comments and responses that I have received have been from Afro-American women who typically where weaves, perms, or wigs. My mother always said if you don't have anything nice to say... So I will leave that alone. But if I do not like someone's hair style the last thing I would do if belittle their choice. If it is someone close to me I may tell them my opinion but I would never be mean about it. It is funny how everyone has an opinion when someone decides to embrace their natural beauty.
What has been your experience with your hair and changing hair styles or going natural?
