TOO SHORT!

Okay, well my cousin, Brooke, works at a Great Clips. She offered to take me there and get my hair clipped and straightened. I said sure, why not. I need a trim.

The last time I had a trim was in the beginning of the year. But my hair is very curly! I'm biracial so I have that curly hair. But it's like a tight curl, and it grows out instead of down in a loose curl. So I'm always straightening it, I know that's not healthy.. But I get it done by a woman named Alicia in the mall beauty salon. And she always takes care of it, and puts heat protection in it before she straightens it.

But anyway on with the story.. She takes me to the woman who works at the Great Clips and she starts blow drying.. and she straightens it, then she starts CHOPPING, AND CHOPPING. She and my cousin said it was "just a trim" and I had a lot of dead ends. But my hair length was to my heart. When she got done it's just to my shoulder!

It looks fine when it's straitened, but like I said my hair has a TIGHT CURL! So, its still straitened, because I'm scarred of what it'll look like when I wash it and it dries. It'll probably be so short and extra curly cause its bouncier. I hope its still looks okay when I wash it, cause my hair is getting really greasy and disgusting. Haha
