I don't know why a bunch of clip on extensions make me feel more confident than I have in a good 5 years. 5 years ago I was pregnant with my 1st daughter. 30-35 LBS. can make someone feel ugly. Then lost some hair, got pregnant again, lost some more hair ,got pregnant again, lost some more hair. This is the longest I have gone without being pregnant. I'm trying to watch what I eat as best as I can. I started working out everyday about 5 months ago. But, still everytime I take a group photo I feel like the ugly one in the group. Its my freakin hair. It looks like I have nothing there in pictures. It's soo thin and fine already, without loosing 1/2 of whats there!
Now, I have these long fake extesions that just clip into my hair. And now when I Iook at pictures of myself, I actually feel sooooo much better. People keep telling me, they look good, but they think I look good with my short hair. That I don't need them. Are people jealous of my fake long hair?? Or do they really think I look better with a bunch of strands on my head? My best friend is a pretty honest person and she loves the fake hair, she says I remind her of when we were in highschool, when I had long hair.
I guess the most important thing is self confidence? If I feel better inside about myself and actually like the way I see myself in pictures now, isn't that the best thing. I even think if I lost enough hair to where I would have to get a wig and just shave it off, I think I would like that better than my nasty real hair anyways. And it would probablly look more real than the extensions! Whatever people think, all I know is, is that this is the best picture of me and my husband in 5 years. I love when he doesn't shave his face, so I made him not shave last night. And I look soooo much better than if I didn't have my lovely, best thing in the word, took me 1 hour to put them in last night, fake synthetic hair!
