beautiful at every length

Image source




I think that for so long the ultimate image of female beauty has included long flowing hair.  Well I think that it's time we all work toward dispelling this unrealistic image, and enjoy our hair at every length.  One thing that I have learned along this natural journey is that your hair often grows faster than you realize.  You know the old saying, the grass is always greener on the other side.  Well, I'm here to tell you all that the grass is not always greener on the other side.  So often we think that if only my hair were a little longer then...it'd be easier to manage, I could do more with it, it'd be prettier etc.  However, I've learned that hair can be fun at every length.  You may have to change up your hair routine and/or hairstyles depending on the length of your hair, but that's part of the fun.  Experimenting and figuring out what works best for you can be a ton of fun if you let it.  Sometimes by the process of experimentation you stumble upon an awesome new hairstyle and sometimes you end up with some ooohhh girl :-(  days, but how will you know if you don't try.  I've now come to learn how to love my hair at every length, and to enjoy it while it lasts because your hair grows faster than you realize. 

So go forth and enjoy the beauty of your hair, and play with new styles appropriate for you length.  I challenge everyone this week to try a new hair style and report back what you tried and how you liked it :-) 

Tootles for now,
Ms. Lady Shay
