I've been a bum

^ This is an everyday look for me beauty marked on the lid, brown down in the crease and i forgot the name of the highlight its in a holiday pallet 

The camera isn't really showing how bright this is but it's sushi flower on the lid um like carbon and brown down in the crease and texture as a highlight 
Yeah I've been falling off with this blog :(

IMMA DO IT!!!

(^_^)I'M GOIN NATURAL (^_^) 

you know just making the decision to go natural took a weight off of my shoulders. I'm totally doing it. This isn't about other people or about how others are going to feel about me. I'm going natural. I plan on transitioning for a year. So I'll cut off my relaxed hair around thanksgiving of next year.

 I'm so excited

My struggle, what do I REALLY look like

So I've been struggling with the idea of going natural for... years. I don't think anyone understands how much I'm struggling with this. But I'm scared I'm honestly scared about how everyone will look at me. I'm scared that no one will love the natural me. But theres the other side of me that stays up till 2am researching natural hair and looking at others journeys. 

There is a part of me that wants to go natural so bad it makes me cry I'm tired of struggling with my hair. I have never obsessed over my weight like I have my hair; but I'm so scared.  I'd love for the rest of my hair to look like my new growth........sigh
