Lately I've been obsessively going in circles about what to do with my hair. In May I decided to cut the sides down low and I never really gave any thoughts about how it would look growing out. Mind you, my natural hair that has about three different hair types: coil, curl and poof.  Needless to say it borders on unprofessional at work but that is just my opinion. It’s so hard to decide if it truly looks crazy or if I’m just bored. Aside from henna I do not color it at all, it is a chemical free zone and I intend on keeping it that way. Cutting it has been my only outlet for experimenting but I realized that once it’s longer I can do more with it so aside from routine at home trims I’m keeping a distance from scissors.

Factor in my love for hats and my dilemma in hair that is “too tall” and my options are down to none. It’s either to thug it out and let it grow until it is long enough for braids and other protective styles, or cut it all off and start again. Although I don’t mind cutting it all off, winter is coming (haha GOT) and Iam going to need my wool to keep my head warm.

I was this close to captioning this post as B613 just because I am obsessed with Scandal, or for that much Shonda Rimes and Kerry Washington. You know who else I am obsessed with? Angela Bassett, Viola Davis. What these women represent speaks to my soul and I love their depth!  Despite my psychotic schedule I find time to watch my shows which is why I am sitting on content and posting these looks that I took in happier, warmer weather. Last week I did a cooking post for a new beef stew recipe that I tried, I'll be sharing in a few days. For a couple of months I've been having different variations of the same conversation with my guy and gal friends about the importance of knowing how to cook, for both male and females in relationships. I found it interesting that a friend of mine noted that cooking was the ultimate sign of love between man and woman. That conversation plays a lot in my head, I think it is just the sweetest thing.
