Living like a Transcendentalist

I decided to give up using my hot tools, (flat iron, curling wand, and blow dryer) for the day. Typically I straighten my hair about once a week during the school days and usually both Saturday and Sunday on the weekends because I usually always have something to do. I think this might be challenging because I'm so used to doing my hair and makeup on weekends that if I don't it's going to feel so out of place. My hair is naturally wavy and puffy so I feel like I always have to do something to it no matter what, but it looks like I'm going to have to deal with it today! Every morning during the weekend the first thing I do when I wake up and shower Is do my makeup and hair for the day. This time I did very minimal makeup because I would feel strange if I did full on makeup but not having my hair done nicely. I was really tempted to do my hair especially because I had a family party going on and I always like to get dolled up for events. Once I got to my family party my cousin saw me and was so shocked that my hair was up in a bun! Her hair was all pretty and curled and I felt like mine wasn't! Although I could of used lots of different methods to get heartless curls, those take way too long! After this experience I learned that lots of girls including myself care much more about there appearance and looking nice rather than enjoying the place where they're at. Half the time Ill be fixing my hair or touching up my makeup. Now that all of these type of curling wands, flat irons, and wave tools are invented it tempts females to want use them.

  1. I also gave up my straightener. I mean it was hard but atleast we got through the whole day. Atleast we learned that we damage our hair less because of it. Plus we learn new ways to style our hair. I think us as girls we care way too much for society's approval but after we do something like this, we learn to love ourselves no matter what other people's opinions are.
