11 Things You Hear Too Much If You Have Curly Hair
Jess Eddmeiri

1. "How do you get it to look like that?"


Ya see, we have this thing call the three P's: prayer, product, and plopping. My roommates have seen me doing the last one, and they still like me, so you'll be fine (thx fam!!!)

2. "Do you ever straighten it? If so, how long does it take you?"


STOP THAT NONSENSE RIGHT NOW, PLS. OF COURSE I DO.

(It takes me an hour and a half to straighten it, but sometimes I need breaks because straightening hair is hard, man.)

3. "I wish I had your hair."


No, ya don't. Do you want to wake up with a bird's nest on the top of your head? No? That's what I thought.

4. "Do you ever brush it?"


I like myself too much to look like a lion for the day.

5. "Your hair is literally everywhere" - the roomies/everyone at all times


Y'all knew what you signed up for in my friendship; it includes balls of hair being left everywhere I go, which are reminders of my presence in your life. Think of them as a gift from me to you.

6. "It's just a little rain, you will be fine."


Monica gets it.

7. "How much hair product do you need?" (when people see your corner designated to your hair products)


Okay, but do you SEE my hair? It takes a lot to make it look this good.

8. "Why do you take so long to get ready? Seriously!"


Would you rather I look like a mess, or a hot mess? (I'd like to think the second one).

9. "Your hair is so big, I love it!!"

You don't even know. Please take it, take it all.

10. "Is that seriously natural?

Seriously....? No, I get up and curl it every morning; yes, it's natural!!

11. "Why don't you just straighten it permanently if it's that bad?"


Because sometimes we have good days, and on those good days, our hair looks absolutely F-L-A-W-L-E-S-S.

Lion's mane gang, werk it!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
