Hi Guys! So this is my first video ever so Yay!
The reason why I'm doing this is because of my hair. As you can tell my hair is kind of
curly but you can see it doesn't go into spirals, it's just wavish/curlish.
When I was a little girl my hair used to be very, very curly.
I realized how pretty it was about a year ago because I found this picture of me when
I was in fifth grade with my hair curly. It was halfway up, like this and you can see
the curls, they were so pretty. And I was like, Why isn't my hair as curly anymore?
But I remember when I was a little girl, all my friends, my brothers, they would make fun
of me. I guess it's because my hair would be big. Here in Puerto Rico, curly hair is
not "pretty". You need to have straight, long hair in order to be pretty and to have nice
hair. So, I remember I learned how to blow dry my hair when I was in 7th grade. By then,
flat irons weren't popular so we would only use blow dryers and I know my hair would be
big. I used to relax it so it would be easier to deal with it and that's why my hair isn't
as curly anymore. Even though I haven't relaxed it for about 5 years now, I still straightened
and blow dried it and that's why it's not as it used to be. Us, curly girls are not
taught how to deal with our hair. That's the truth. When you go to a hair salon, when you
go to a party, or new year's eve party, get togethers, etc. in order to feel sexy or pretty
you feel the need to blow dry your hair because we don't know how to deal with it. It doesn't
look nice, right now my hair doesn't look nice. I got tired of flat ironing my hair.
It takes me about an hour, an hour and a half, blow drying and straightening it. When it's
hot, you know you sweat, So i got tired of it. I use mousse and it's really not good
for my hair. So, I started searching for youtube videos on healthy, curly hair. And guess what?!
I found sunkinssalba. I watched one of her videos (I'm going to post it down here) and
i fell in love with her hair. Her hair is so pretty, she is so nice, I have tweeted
her, she responds back in less than a day. Her hair makes me wanna have curly hair. She
explains the products and method she uses for her hair and I started following it. As
you can tell my hair.. see? I can do this I wasn't able to do that before, my hair is
always detangled now. I started to do this like 2 weeks ago. And the reason why I'm doing
this video is because I really, really, really wanna start doing this. I want you guys to
see my journey, because maybe you can do this with me, we can support each other and we
can really start working this out. It's great that I have curly hair and it's great that
I'm going to start learning how to treat it and manage it. Sunkissalba's videos led me
to Devachan Salon, which is a hair salon in NYC only for curlies.I really which I could
go sometime. My parents live in PA, I live in PR, and I'm hoping that whenever I go visit
them I can go to NY and visit the Deva Chan Salon.Look, I know what it is to have nice
straight hair but it is so uncomfortable. You can't go to the gym because it sweats
and you worry how it'll look the next day, you have to flat iron it again, when it rains,
omg, you need an umbrella. There are so many things that you miss out on. I go to the beach
a lot and I'm always worrying about how my hair looks. So, I got tired of it, I really
did and I knew that if I let my hair grow out the curls would come back but they didn't
and it's because I did the Keratin, so that's why my curls aren't curly. I really hope that
you guys get that I'm excited with this, that you support me, we can support each other.
I'll be showing you videos on the products I'm using, the co-washing which is no shampoo
for washing your hair, no combs, finger detangling, deep conditioning... You can find all this
at sunkissalba's channel. You should check her out, it'll help you so much. But I wanna
do this channel so you can start doing this with me, and month by month maybe we don't
get as desperate because you can see the results of my hair in a month and you can compare
it to yours and I can compare it to yours. So yeah, I really hope you guys like my channel,
subscribe and we can really do this, we need support. I love being natural, I love being
myself and I'm sure you guys too. This is really great, I'm really, really excited.
Im gonna post a video in spanish too, for us puerto ricans.Thank you guys for listening!
Love you, bye
