Bald is Beautiful

Some people cut all their hair  off because they want to. Some have a diesease or condition that gives them no choice. I didn't choose to loose all my hair from my head and body, my body choose it for me. So, Bald is beautiful? Yes, it is. I have embraced every style I have had from permed, curly, straight to natural.  Now its time to incorporate my BB (Beautiful Baldness). When I see women, children wearing their bald head proudly, it inspires me.  It has taking me years to become comfortable enough to face my conditon and to talk about it.  Now for my next step, gaining enough spirit and internal encouragement to show the world my beautiful bald head.  Just the thought of it makes me nervous.  What are you going to do with your wigs?  I love hair and will continue to make and wear them, but it would sure be nice sometimes on those blazing hot days to put on some bold earrings, some pretty natural makeup and rock out with my bald head.  What will people think?  I don't know but my family is my biggest cheerleader and my husband who has been with me thru my journey loves me regardless, thats all I need.  What is your bald is beautiful? Have you ever been so inspired to do something that puts you out of your comfort zone?


One day this pic above will be me :)

All Wrapped Up!!!!

Patterned, bright, floral, solid.....A scarf can make a statement with any outfit.    Scarves compliment any hairstyle and look.   Find your inner Queen of the Nile, Turban twisted style and beware of looking like Rosie the Riveter when trying to achieve this.  For those of us with little to no hair, scarves are a great way to appease your sense of style, keep you on trend and most importantly it gives you a break from the wigs and weaves.  It also can be challenging to wear a scarf with no hair, so try to pick a thicker but breathable material to give your headwrap the fullness it needs.  There are so many ways to tie and style a scarf.  However, I find instead of just YouTubing it, I prefer just to play around with the scarf until I find the style to fit me. Practice makes perfect!!! The cinnanbon  at the top of your head doesn't fit everyone so find a style that works for you. No more color coordinated bonnets please.  I'm just saying :)  What's your headwrap style?
