Working Out + Natural Hair

I had an epiphany last week. I don't hesitate to work out, sweat or even swim.

I always made my hair appointments for Saturday afternoons...by that time I would've gotten a workout in and I would have a chance to get an individual workout on Sunday so my hair would get that initial I just got my hair done sweat/scent out. I hated how my hair would smell after a relaxer...and when I would sweat it seemed like I would run around class apologizing for the smell. No one else smelled it...I was the only person to smell it.

Since cutting my hair I've noticed that I workout in a different way. During our work conference last week I went swimming without thinking about my hair...I knew all I had to do was wash my hair...throw some product in it and let it air dry.

It just made me happy.
