CURLY HAIR!

Hello Everyone! 

As everyone knows I have naturally curly hair. No it isn't a perm it is natural. Has it given me problems in the pass yes and it still does. It is not a perm it is all natural yes I relies it gets super big sometime. Weather change climate change many things are factors even shampoo and conditioner.

I want to take you back to 2013 I was in Fargo North Dakota at the time it is the middle of the summer and it is HUMID! My hair grows out not down. It was a humid day in Fargo North Dakota! I am on exchanges and when we go to get our normal companions back which I was not excited for. The one sister said, "Sister Dallon we need to talk." I was like this is going to be terrible what have I done now that my companion hates me for. This girl pulled out the white handbook and told me how distracting my hair was and I needed to get it cut or I would be sent home. I thought this was the dumbest thing I have ever heard. I got it cut because that is what you do when you are on a mission you are obedient. Well, my idiot of a mission president calls my mom and informs her my hair is curly and I am a white girl with an Afro. My mom kindly says, I know president I prayed for her to have curly hair! Then he goes on to tell her I need to braid it like I am African American. My mom says that is hard to do when she cut it off like she was told. This was the first of many phone calls from the president. After that I was like I am white with an Afro and I embraced the curl.

Never did it really bother me that I had curly hair. Yes there is jokes of do you have a perm? Did you stick your finger in an electrical outlet? Or wow you have a lot of hair. These are the normal jokes. Answer to them is NO I don't have a perm it is naturally this way. Second, NO I didn't stick my finger in an electrical outlet. Did you? Duh of course I have a lot of hair that is just obvious.
My mom prayed for me to have curly hair and you best bet I tell her she prayed to hard but I have learned to embrace the curl and love it. Some days are better than others. I am proud to say I am white and have curly hair. If you have a problem take it up with me but don't give me the jokes they are rude and inconsiderate! Life is hard and I don't need people bringing me down because I am white with curly hair! 

My curly is hair is what makes me unique I could careless if you care. Life is hard I am living the dream! Going to school and work and traveling the world! Keep the faith! Work hard play hard and run harder! Peace out Cub Scout! Off to my next adventure!
