Let’s talk hair for minute. I have finally made a full circle back to my pre-NYC hair and that made me stop to think about my last 4 years. If you only know me from my time in NYC you think that having long, colorful hair is just part of who I am. If you know me from before, the colored hair seems out of character. What not many people know is that every hair color is attached to some sort of stressor that I’ve experienced. Some are from anxiety that I didn’t know how to handle, some were my way of painting depression a happy color, and some were from feeling like I lost control of my own body except for choosing my own hair color. I do not say all of this to get sympathy, but to say that social media never gives you the full story. I have had an amazing journey since leaving Kentucky, but most of my best memories aren’t photographed and are in spite of what color my hair was or what my life looked like on the outside. Bright colored hair was fun, but I am happy to be back to my roots and back to myself. ❤️
