i am not my hair

yesterday, i was introduced to the wonderful world of...




WIGS!
i never had a problem with wigs. i thought they were funky and fun. and i've always been dissatisfied with my natural hair. but the idea of rocking a wig made me nervous. i thought it would be too artificial. i didn't want to worry about answering questions about the non-realness of my hair. when i was younger, i used to wear synthetic braids, and anytime i transitioned from my natural short hair to my brandy-like braids
people (well, elementary school kids) would always be so...intrigued/disgusted. so i'd feel so self-conscious. but now, i'm finally at the point where i'm like...yo, it's my hair. and i can choose to do whatever i want with it. as tlc said,
you can buy your hair if it won't grow
so that's what i want to do. start a fucking fierce wig collection and change styles/lengths/colors and it will be awesome.
yay! i feel like i've been in a fashion rut for quite some time, so i'm excited to add some different flair/funkiness to my overall aesthetic.
