Behold the wrath of the 'fro!

Not everyone can handle this I'm afraid, I appreciate him trying though...

But he is dead set against me hennaing my hair. He doesn't know I have been henna glossing. He doesn't want my hair color to change or anything about my hair to change at all. When I tell him it is to make my hair easier to manage, then he is like your hair is not that hard to manage. It is then that it is clear that he has forgotten the aforementioned 'fro...

Lol.

Lol to behold the wrath of the

... And what else could be so mighty and regal?

He must love your hair a lot if he's pretending not to notice the honest work you put into it. Gotta say, I'm impressed he's gotten in there and at least TRIED to manage your hair. To this day - and we've been together for what feels like a lifetime and a day - my man is unholy scared of dealing w/my crazy curls. He thinks my hair is for touching but not for clearing out.

I get why he'd insist you stay natural though (I mean look at your hair!). But I wonder why your DH doesn't want you to henna it? Is he afraid the curl will loosen up too much? ... Meanwhile my DH wants me to ONLY color it black, no other color. For silly reasons too. (I'm changing the color anyway

)

Bingo, that, he is afraid it will loosen my curl pattern, and he likes my color exactly the way it is. He says any other color wont be my natural color and therefore wont be the same. Also he has heard from me how it "can" cause dryness and therefore breakage and he is worried I won't be a happy camper if that happens.

I think the main reason he has tried to get in my hair before in order to detangle is because he has curly hair that can get unruly at times and assumes my hair can't really be any worse. It sounds like your dh does not really have curly hair at all and is scared of tangling your hair up.

Me for my part, I just want soft frizz free and manageable tresses, it is my journey and my dh just might have to get used to it, lol.
