For every little girl, being pretty is a must. When I was younger I always looked at myself and thought I was ugly. I don't feel ugly now but back then I always felt ugly. I wasn't the only one who thought I was ugly though. Every day people would laugh at my hair and make fun of my hair. Being laughed at, well it hurt a lot. I use to use hairspray instead of gel in my hair.
Ever since I was young I had to have some type of product in my hair. I had to have product in my hair because if I don't have gel or hairspray in it, my hair looks like a beast who will eat you. With hairspray my hair was always hard and really, REALLY poofy. If you put something in my hair, you weren't getting it back. My hair and I were not friends and that was obvious. Everyone made fun of my hair, everyone. They would always ask why it was so hard, why it was so poofy.
Around my second year of middle school I started using gel instead of hairspray. It made a huge difference and I started to love my hair. Being picked on was not fun, but it made me who I am today. I use to be able to be pushed around and laughed at. I would do whatever people told me to do. Being bullied helped me. It sounds weird saying it helped me but it did. I became stronger and happier. No matter what you have to love who you are. I know I love who I am and you can't change me.
