Fro-Back When: My jet black hair

I got an email from a reader (I didn't even know that many people read this blog, HA!) who wanted to know what I looked like with jet black hair.

The story behind the blue/black hair...

I was bored with the fro.

The end.

I wanted something different. And something unexpected. So in the summer of....'06 I bought a box of some black hair color and dyed the roots.

My silly behind should have probably gotten a rinse but I didn't even consider that.


Freshman 15 or 20 is written all over that picture. HA!!

It looked a little better in an afro puff.


The jet black hair was fun for the first month I had it. I mean I thought I was baaaad.


I would wear these insane fro hawks to class. I really felt like a bad ass with the jet black hair. But after a good month I got sick of it. As to not damage my hair, I didn't re-color again until 3-4 months later.

They say once you go black, you'll never go back.

That may be true for men but not for hair coloring. LOL.....I'm just sayin'.

Peace and loc've

I remember the black fro period didn't you do a single brown/blond streak in the front. Now that was BAD
