Transcript

Once in a while my husband begs me to bring my curly hair back and sometimes I like to trick him into thinking that I'm actually just cutting my bob shorter. But today it was time to switch it up and get a curly sew-in. There's this common misconception that I hate my curly hair and I'm trying to be something completely different. I'm choosing to straighten it and cut it. But in reality, I've just been dealing with eczema all over my body and my scalp for years on end now. It's hard to describe to someone that hasn't been through it, how debilitating, painful, itchy, and inflamed I can get. But I'm so grateful that I seem to be at the other end or at least not dealing with a flare up right now. So whenever that happens, I try to get my curly hair installed. I called Kendra to do the sew-in. She was an immediate, she matched my bundles perfectly to my new hair color. The hair turned out absolutely perfect and lucky I had no idea what to do with himself.
