Happy new month everyone!! I hope you are all doing well and staying safe? Today's
post is about what I enjoy doing: my hair. I made this yarn braids by myself a few days ago and wow, I can't believe I'm still good at it (the last time I made my hair by myself was about a year ago). If someone had told me two decades ago that I'll be able to style my hair myself, I don't think I would have believed it but here I am today. For those who may be wondering how I learned to style my hair myself, this is my story.
It all started when I was much younger, I can't remember how old I was exactly but I wasn't up to 10 years old, my mom was my hairstylist and I used to stress her a lot when she wants to my hair by explaining how exactly I want my hair to look and if she doesn't get the style right, I'd be so sad. It got to a point that couldn't handle my reactions anymore so she cut my hair: that was when I knew I had to learn how to get what I want. I started practicing on the dolls she bought me, this helped tremendously. From then on, I was more confident in weaving my hair and embraced the mistakes I made, I also watched lots of youtube videos, learned from others, and so on.
There was a period I made my hair a lot especially in the year 2016, I didn't visit the salon even for a day, it was like a personal challenge and I still can't believe I did over 20 hairstyles by myself.
If you want to learn how to style your hair, my advice is that you:
- Keep practicing
- Watch lots of youtube videos
- Learn from the mistakes
Over to you, what are you so good at?
Happy New Month..
