Peace and Blessings Sisters,
I was browsing the web and found this article, Beyonce's Wig Malfunctioned, and it made me wonder how this poll would go ...
Do you consider yourself pretty ... with no makeup, weave, wig, or perm ... pretty in the naked beauty that God gave you?
Do you consider yourself pretty then ... with none of the extra stuff added on?
I do think i'm pretty like that! ... i mean, i gotta comb my naps out and stuff, make sure everything is all lotioned up ... but yes ... i do think i'm pretty with none of that stuff and ... i rarely wear any of it. I think the last time i had makeup on (anything more than lipstick), was my daughter's graduation in May ... and then i had some mascara and eyeliner too. Don't misunderstand me yall, i aint no Beyonce (by any stretch of the imagination), but i think i'm pretty the way God made me, and i live this truth every day. I useta do the props all the time, so it's been a journey, my getting here ... but i am here now! ... and yes yes yes ... i think i'm pretty without ANY of that stuff! Yall feel me?
This also makes me think of something else too Sisters.
The whole plastic surgery industry! Oh My Gosh! Look at the hype that is being put into not wanting folk to love their own selves, the way God made them! This is almost sinful! Folk so nonchalantly changing and disliking what God gave. I'm talking, the stuff that is straight from God!
Reminds me of my ... Little Black Girls Are Ugly ... thread.
Anyway ...
Are you pretty when you have no make up, no weave, no perm, no wig, no none of that stuff?
Do you spend time with yourself, without those things?
Do you let others see you, without those things?
Do you even know your own self, without those things?
Please vote in the poll above, and share your thoughts below.
Much Love and Peace.
