you're so vain...

this morning i was running late.  what else is new, right?!  anywho.. i did not feel like completely drying my hair and/or using the flat iron. 

i am not known for being able to get up, ready, and out the door quickly.  i have to plan on, at least, a hour and half from waking up to walking out the door.  if i'm actually going somewhere that requires looking nice it's at least a 2 hour process. 

i.hate.it.

okay...to get back to the point of this post (which i had intended to be short and to the point) - i quickly dried it a little bit with a diffuser - how do you even use one of those things properly? - and the above photo was the result.  the only product i used was a bit of coconut milk oil that i thought  was supposed to tackle the frizz.  it doesn't.  as i was getting dressed i knocked the hair dryer onto the floor and pieces shot off all over the place.  i didn't examine it closely, but i think it may be busted for good.

so.. what exactly IS the point to this post?!  i think i'm DONE - yes, DONE - with giving a crap about how my hair looks.  frizzy, curly, wavy, straight, a combination of everything is exactly what my freakin hair is and that's just the facts.  i've always been known for my pretty hair.. "such pretty, thick hair!" is what i've been told my whole life.  i have cried on more than one occasion after a bad haircut.  WEEPED and gone into hiding to be truthful...

welp, i'm sick of wasting my life away trying to get that perfect hair "look".  

i'm tired of standing and sweating for 45 minutes behind a hot blow dryer.  

i'm tired of taking another 20-30 minutes of my life to fry my hair with a flat iron.

to go along with my whole 2013 new outlook on life i'm going to live simply when it comes to my weave.  although.. not so simply as to go grey... that's never gonna happen!  i got'sta dye my hair and keep a little of my vanity in tact.. but as far as further frying it - that part of this chic's life is over! 

this is going to be the year of the wash'n'go!
