"I have a dream that black women (and for those that prefer African American) will one day be able to have a nice workout at the gym, get in a nice sweat, and still come out looking civilized about the head! I still have a dream, that although women of all races face difficulties of finding time within our hectic schedules to get a good workout in, eat right, maintain a fabulous career and enjoy the fruits of our labor; there will be a time when you can place your hair out of your face without having a wet, stringy, frizzy or limp do' when you leave the gym. I have a dream that one day no matter if you rock all natural kinky, straight, wavy, curly, move onto permed, jheri, or bags of yaki and velvet remi; you can rest assured that the same way you entered the gym, is the same way you will leave out! I have a dream today!"
I thought it was just me until I've been seeing it on status posts, hearing it on radio, seeing jokes made about it on television. I mean, this is a REAL life situation that we're going through! (I had to laugh myself...but it's true)
One of the major reasons I skip work outs is due to my hair. PUHLEESE! If I have something to do that day, I will not work out. I go from this:
or
to my beloved "Black Fox" bun. This:
It took a few tries to take a pic of myself LOL! So there you have it! You see this bun...I need my wig split, I'm having a bad hair day...or my BEhind has been working out!XOXO Happy Hair
