i had to prove a point
to myself
or them?
not sure.
leaning towards the latter, though.
run my hair under water
letting the coolness reach the ends of the strands
put it up in a towel
let it somewhat dry while i wash my face.
take it down
40% dry—maybe.
i grab a shirt from today
tilt my head over
and scrunch.
no products
just water
and a shirt.
i keep scrunching,
watching as the wavy curls make their way back to my hair
looking as it's done now,
they look better than with products.
they look lighter,
bouncier even.
now i stand in the mirror
ready for bed
curly hair resting on my shoulders
all to prove words said 4 days ago wrong.
maybe you'll figure them out,
maybe not.
but all i can say is:
there are different hair types.
some require a little more help than yours.
if they use more products or techniques than yours,
doesn't mean they are excluded from the hair type.
if it works, it works.
no argument, end of story.
and osaka-
that was rude.
'yeah, enzo!'
sorry if this made you upset-
but it's been bothering me for too long.
