I worked that ponytail into the ground. $6.99 for one bag, 

and that bag lasted two years.  I couldn't afford an actual weave,

so I started to experiment with different

textures and color.

Curly, short, French Wave.

It wasn't until my 

very white boyfriend 

yanked my BELOVED PIECE OFF MY HEAD and threw

it across the room during the throws of passion

and told me I was a natural beauty that I left the world of

ponytails behind me... and promptly entered

the world of weaves.
