Tara's World Of Fashion: Advice, Fashion Styling, Discussions, And Trends.
TARA 101: THE PICTURES ABOVE, ARE A COUPLE OF PICTURES, I TOOK OF THE BIGGEST, LIFE CHANGING THING, I HAD EVER DONE, THAT IVE ALWAYS WANTED TO DO SINCE IVE BEEN NATURAL WITH MY HAIR AMD THAT WAS DYING IT HONEY BLONDE. NO JOKE. IVE WORN BLONDE TWISTS, BLONDE SENEGALESE TWISTS, BLONDE BOX BRAIDS, BUT DOING THIS, TO MY NATURAL HAIR, DOESN'T COMPARE, IT OPENED YOUR MIND TO POSIBILITITES, AND TEACHES YOU, HOW UNIVERSAL, AND HOW BEAUTIFUL, THE MANY SHADES OF BLONDES, THERE ARE FOR WOMEN, OF COLOR TO TRY. SO IT TOOK ME REALLY, ONE LIF, TO GET THE COLOR, I WAS WANTING, THE NEXT TWO SESSIONS, AFTER THAT, I WANTED IT TO BE BRIGHTER, REMINDING ME OF MY FATHER'S HAIR. SO I DID TWO LIFTS AND GOT THE COLOR MORE, BRIGHTER, THAN WHAT I WANTED, WITHIN MINUTES. NOW I FEEL LIKE MY HAIR, IS NOT THE FOREIGN CREATURE, ON MY HEAD. THAT IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY, OFTEN TEACH THEIIR CHILDREN, IF THEY DID NOT COME OUT, WITH THE RIGHT GRADE, OF HAIR, IT WAS TREATED, AS SUCH. I CAN TOTALLY RELATE, TO HAVING HAIR, BEING PUT DOWN, ALL MY LIFE, FEELING LIKE I HAD, THIS IMPOSSIBLE GRADE, OF UNMANAGABLE NAPPY HAIR. THAT MY MOTHER, ALWAYS CLAIMED, IT DIDN'T COME FROM HER SIDE, OF THE FAMILY, LIKE I WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH. THIS GENE, HOWEVER DID NOT SKIP OVER, MY OLDER BROTHER, WHO LIKED TO HEAR, MY MOTHER BRAG, ABOUT HIS HAIR. SO WE'VE ALL BEEN THROUGH IT, WE CAN SPEND ALL DAY, GOING OVER THE TRAUMA, OR I CAN GET YOUR RIGHT, ON TRACK, TO LOVING YOUR HAIR, AND TRYING WHAT YOU WANT, TO TRY FOR YOUR HAIR. HAVING CONFIDENCE, TO PLAY WITH DIFFERENT HUES, OF YOUR HAIR. WHEN I GO OUTSIDE, AND THE SUN IT, I'VE GOT MY LIPGLOSS ON, MY CATEYE GLASSES (MAKEUP) I FEEL SO TRENDY. FOR ONCE I FEEL LIKE, I CAN SAY MY HAIR, MAKES ME HAPPY, FROM THE COLOR TO THE SOLID CARE, OF HOW I TAKE CARE OF, MY NATURAL HAIR, AFTER SO MANY RECOMMENDED FAILING PRODUCTS. BUT IT IS THE BEST FEELING EVER. AND I THANK MY ABBAH, FOR ENCOURAGING ME, TO GO FORTH IN IT. I PERSONALLY THINK THERES A BLONDE SHADE FOR EVERY SKIN TONE OF COLOR OF DIFFERENT ETHNICITIES GO WITH A BLONDE THAT BRINGS OUT THE UNDERTONES IN YOUR TAN BROWN AND DARK SKIN. YOU'RE GOING TO BE PROUD THAT YOU DID NOT ONLY BLONDE BUT ANYTHING THAT YOU ARE TRYING TO DO WITHYOUR HAIR, LIKE BURGUNDY FOR EXAMPLE. AS A GIRL OF COLOR, IM TELLING YOU, YOU CAN DO IT. JUST KNOW GOD SEES THE BEAUTY IN IT.
