On Friday, May 24, 2013, I had my first Salon Experience since I've been natural. I decided to go to a professional to get my hair colored, shampooed, conditioned, blow dried, flat ironed, and trimmed. I can't recall the last time I visited a hair salon. Keep in mind, I've been natural since February 13, 2010. The stylist was very friendly, and made my experience rather enjoyable. I was so pleased with the results, that I will definitely be going back. Also, just an FYI...I allowed the wind and humidity to blow my hair all over the place when I went to the beach, which is what I anticipated anyway. So, of course now my hair is on its way to reverting back to its natural curly/kinky state. Nevertheless, I had a ball at the beach and DO NOT regret letting my hair blow in the wind. At least I now know the true length of my hair, and can see how healthy it is. This Salon Experience has also allowed me to see the progress of my Natural Hair journey, how much it has grown.

My Sweetie and I went to Galveston Beach on Saturday, May 25, 2013, and we had a blast! For those who did not know, the beach is my all time favorite place to be. I have said it many times...there's just something about water and me. It's so therapeutic, tranquil, and relaxing. Just to hear the sound of the waves crush against the sand and the sea gulls flying around sends me to a place beyond bliss. The weatherman predicted a 30% chance of rain in Galveston, TX on that day. Although there were a few dark clouds, it did not rain. Also, the dark clouds eventually went away. At first we were a little skeptical about going because of the weather forecast, but decided to go anyway. Once we arrived, we were so elated with our decision to move forward with our plans. The wind was amazing! No sweating for us... We truly enjoyed our strolls along the beach, along with a few drinks on the balcony of our hotel room. Although there was a mishap with our hotel reservations, everything
