That's a good point actually...Ooooh I wish I had mine curly!!! Mine is so flat...yikes.... LOL Have to embrace the straightness of it though...

I never knew that wearing hair certain way can be a political statement nowadays.... well unlike in olden days a woman had to have a long hair, or say punker hairstyles to rebell against the 'norm'....

I always want to perm mine, but afraid its too fragile... Makeda I truely think your locks look adorable and I dunno why one should be discouraged to have it this way!
