Hair length is CRAZY. And I’ve only got a couple weeks until my next retwist. I promise, no more pictures until then (I’m probably lying). Lmao in all seriousness, I really never thought my hair would be this long, it’s an absolute blessing, that’s for sure. I’m so proud to be black, despite all the pain that our race has been through, I still wouldn’t change who I am. Being black has blessed me with this hair, which, I know I’ve said this before, but…. When I was younger, some shitty barber in a barbershop told me that I’d never have dreads. That my hair doesn’t grow the right way and I can’t have dreads at all. So glad I didn’t take that advice forever, wish I would’ve started when he told me that, when I was in my teens. The point of me saying all this is: be grateful and celebrate who you are, and who you’ve become. Love yourself despite what people tell you, and don’t let anybody tell you what to do with your body. Do what you want with it, it’s yours. Enough emo stuff for awhile lol https://www.instagram.com/p/CVUuAWYL8tGX4dZ67Myj_uJ4CUIj89NV_qXO4s0/?utm_medium=tumblr
