"I love when my hair is the biggest it can get — the bigger the better. And there's a lot of power behind my natural hair process. I've come a really long way with my hair where no one can really tell me anything about it that I would take to heart.
My family is Dominican, and I know personally for my family that straight hair is valued and seen as more beautiful because it's more 'tamed'. They either call curly hair greña or pajón, and I've seen that have negative connotations because it's supposed to mean your hair is big or messy or not kept well. So every time I have my hair take up space (as it should), for them it's a pajón and I should get it together or do something with it. But this took hours to perfect!
For the most part, I love my hair, big and beautiful as it is."
