Teachers are finally giving us the "rest of the year" speeches and I could not be any more excited. It's time for summer. Or summertime. I guess it works both ways.
I have a super busy summer approaching as I am vacationing/church camping/sweet 16 partying/excersing my pool pass. On top of all of that, I am working to have my first novel ready for editting before I return to school. Yeah, I don't rest too much.
But I have been wanting to post about a big change in my life beauty wise. Since January 1st, I have only used heat to style my hair ONCE.
Before this year I was an avid straightner user. I straightened my hair nearly everyday but wanted it longer. I never understood why it wouldn't grow any faster. As it turns out, these bloggers are right. Not using heat has improved the health of my hair dramatically.
The hardest part of this transistion was becoming adapted to the awkward wacves in my hair. I had never liked the flair of the ends on the right side of my head, nor the way the left turnee under. As it turns out, I actually love my hair. Having it naturally dry and then brush (wet hair is more susceptable to breakage) has done wonders. It is growing much faster now and looks a million times better.
I definately reccomend kissing heat products goodbye for the majority of the time. I will be using a curling iron for my party and homecoming but I hope not to more than that. It feels great to be able to do 3 minutes of work and have someone compliment my hair.
