The Crazy Things I Heard Once I Went Natural
You need to do something with this
I decided to make this transition right before I went off to college and my grandfather, trying to impart some wisdom, told me that I needed to “do something with this.” The “this” he was referring to was my hair (and my nose ring too actually). He told me that I wouldn’t be able to be successful in college or in my career looking the way I looked. Now that is my Big Daddy, so I couldn’t disrespect him, so I just gave him a blank stare until he stopped speaking.
