Celebration Dinner + Crowning Glory review

I still have that rush running through my body after my 1st exhibition, so the family and I decided to celebrate by going out to celebrate.

It was such a great night, going out with my sisters and mum because there is never a dull moment  when im around them, plus the location we went to eat at was amazing, as usual. I didn't want the night to end being honest.After we ate we headed straight to the theatre. not I havent been theatre in a long time so when the idea came up to go theatre to celebrate... I was exstatic, I really was! I really like doing new things , although this isnt new because ive been theatre before but its not something I do all the time.

Ive absolutely loved the whole experience of putting my own exhibition together and mum and the girls have been my back bone through the whole thing.

Mum, sisters and I.

                                                Play- CROWNING GLORY  -Theatre time!!

It was most definately an experience for me, and I think for the girls too. I do believe  Everything the characters were saying was true, most coloured girls or black girls are very insecure about their hair and they are very much so affected by the comments people make on a daily basis. Some dont mean it to be harmful, but unfortunately some do.  

Black girls in this society believe that they are not beautiful if they dont have long, wavy, light hair. They think that guys will not look at them or dont because of this reason, which in some circumstances are true, which is sad. Being a black girl myself, I havent had Problems with my hair ....

But it is fustrating when I cant control my curls at times but that does not mean that my intentions when I straighten my hair is that I want to feel accepted by the society  today and look like everyone else. Everyone has insecurities, women more then men but they have them. Loving yourself is so important  and some characters in the play didnt, whether it be because of the way people around them made them feel about them self or because its as simple as they have the desire to look like someone else.. or its just fashion to wear weave.

'To weave or not to weave?' 

Personaly, no weave I say, your hair DOES NOT have to be touching our shoulders for us to be beautiful.
