I have an irrational fear that my hair has not grown at all since the last time I straightened it.

I have a rational fear that after I trim the ssk’s from my ends, I will have no growth to show for the last few months.

I plan to straighten my hair before the weekend comes and these are the thoughts running through my head. I’ll be whipping out my length check t-shirt and measuring up. I don’t know why I feel like the pressure is on.

I bought some new Motions products for heat styling natural hair. It’s a 3 step process with shampoo, leave in conditioner and a sealer. I didn’t buy the shampoo because I have to use Selsun Blue for my scalp anyway.

I saw @empressL (on Instagram) use these products on her daughter’s natural hair and it looked really straight and silky and made me curious about the product.

I can’t wait to try it and also to face my fears about my hair growth (or lack thereof). I’ll keep you posted.

XOXO,
