.i love my hair

I love my hair.

I love it's tight curvature and format.

I love the volume it has.

I love how he looks when it's without definition.

And I sure do love my frizz. It's natural, God knows my work on keeping it hydrated.

And I don't need your opinion on what my hair should look like (I know your only advice is to clog my head with cream until it looks 10% like straight hair; I'm tuned 'bout your tricks)

Fuck, I love my hair.

And no white supremacy can change that.

Fire on racists. <3
