CAPE TOWN – “Having curly hair is a gift” so they assume, dealing with tangled hair is a lifetime battle that only curly people can understand.
Many have come up with assumptions of what it might be to bear a curly, kinky and bushy crown. However today, I am going to take you through a day on a curly persons shoes and break everything you need to know.
Curly hair seems to be one element that disproves sir Isaac Newton’s law of gravity, maybe planet earth just doesn’t provide enough force to pull it down. Hair is more than just your body part, it is your own personal signature, it defines you and glorifies your identity. “My hair is such a big part of who I am”, said Rozanne McKenzie on Hair Confessions
Interesting facts you didn’t know about #teamcurls ?
• We don’t always finger tangle, because it is almost impossible to trace hair lines with our finger tips- it is almost like your fingers are on a maze run in your own scalp.
• Most of us don’t own any hairbrush or comb and well, for those who do, they hardly use it. On days we decide to wash or comb our hair we have to prepare our selves mentally and spiritually, because it takes longer than you imagine.
• We don’t like people to touch our hair, its not being rude (: it only makes sense after you understand the hours we spend trying to make it neat.
• Scissors are our worst enemies, we don’t trust people with our hair. Growing this glorious crown takes time.
