It's my 5 month Nappiversary!!!! My Top 10 things about being natural!

It's been 5 months since my big chop!  I can remember when my TWA was short and cute. Now it's grown and sexy! I was always on youtube studying other natural sistas, trying all of the  products that were on the reviews. It seems as if it were yesterday.  I couldn't wait until my 6 months nappiversary, because then it meant I was halfway there.  It has been such a great ride.  I have learned a lot, not only about myself, but about other women.  I have made new connections and friends, joined communities and supported other sista's dreams.  Ladies, you don't have to go natural or cut  your hair to start living your life.  Just do it!  

With that being said here are my top 10 things I have learned a lot about being natural.

1. Wash and go is a very misleading term.  Just ask my hair.
2. You must always treat your hair with TLC or she will turn on you.
3. Being natural gives you validation for being a product junkie.  I' m  just stating facts!
4.You can never own enough pairs of earrings no matter how much you try to convince yourself otherwise.
5. You start smiling at other natural sista in the street and we all give each other that look as if we are part of some secret society.
6.There really is no such thing as a bad hair day. Well...at least not yet!
7.  Don' t really care if I get caught in the rain without and umbrella.  Water is my friend!  Hot dang!!!!
8. Love it when someone asks, "what did you do to your hair?"  My response, "Not a damn thing! " LOL!!!
9. It cost a whole lot less from when I had a relaxer and was a slave to the salon.
10. I love being Kinky, Kurly, Naturally...Me!!!
