My Hair Won The Battle!

Sandra Rose has a post today about a Glamour Magazine editor making the comment, "Just say no to the fro" when talking to a group of lawyers about hairstyles. Of course, she is now looking for a new job. That brought thoughts about my own hair. I currently wear it au natural. I get many comments all of the time about it and some people even touch it. So now my reply when asked about my hair is that, "My hair won the battle!"
I have tried perming it, s-curling it, blow drying it, setting it, wrapping it, geling it, mooseing it, cutting it down to a "butch" hairstyle, flat ironing it, curling ironing it, and practically burning it off with the stuff that Debbie Allen promoted years ago. But each time my hair rebelled with a vengeance. So now, I surrendered. I let my hair do it's own thing. And now it has grown considerably since I don't torture it with heat and chemicals. My hair is a happy victor!
