I’ve had friends come up to me and ask what am I doing to have the curls that I have. Truth be told, as I grew my hair out, I had no idea my hair was curly. I guess i had wavy hair when I was little, and was convinced for a looong time I…
I guess the whole story is I say I love you now, kind of. Let me back up. I grew up a Gen X kid with Silent Generation parents. They were taught not to have feelings or dare you have them, don’t you even go and express them. For someone younger, that probably makes no…
