"I think that we have to firstly accept ourselves the way we are. I do think that girls are told at an early age that straightening their hair is the right thing, whereas it's simply not. You need to shut down the negative energy and do what makes you feel good. What makes you feel good is what makes you beautiful!"

The hairstylist basically only had to put some spray so that my TWA would be looking its best. It took the hairstylist literally 10 seconds."
