Shameless Blocks

So, as part of my 30 Days Shameless, I decided that I wanted to get my hair braided into box braids. I went to a natural hair salon and the stylist pretty much told me that she didn't have time to do my hair and the other stylist that I trust doesn't know how to do them. Sigh.
Then, I decided that I would get my eyebrows done. I have previously been against this because people have demanded that I do it, and I didn't dig that. Also, I had a bad experience in college that led me to looking very excited for like two months.  But I thought, what the hey! Gotta be shameless! Then, I shared this plan with P and he told me that in the Quran someplace it says that people who get their eyebrows arched are going to be thrown in the hell fire. Huh?! I'd never heard of this, but I'm not going to push it. Okay, I won't say I won't push it, I'm on the fence about it.
The next goal is to go to the Sassy Shakes Twerk Class at Dance 411. I have asked people to go with me but no real confirmations. What I am learning from this little goal is that when you want to be shameless, you may have to do it alone. It' all good though! I am going to make my 30 days.

30 Days Shameless


So about two months ago, a co-worker introduced me to Shameless Maya on Youtube, and since then, I have become a huge fan. I ordered her tote bag and I am nearly camping out in front of the mailbox waiting on it. She is funny, she is pretty, she is awesome, and she said something in her LA Lookbook video that caught my attention. She said that about a year ago she started being shameless, and doing so changed her life. Hm, I feel that I am literally full of shame and it is doing nothing for me. So I am going to take a page out of Maya's book and kick it shameless. I am a fraidy cat though. I can't go shameless overnight. So I am going to try 30 days shameless, trying and doing things that I am too afraid to do now. I shall keep you posted. I'm gonna do me boo!
