When I was in grad school I remember this one outfit that I had that fit perfectly. Every time I wore it, I would dance around in the mirror and my husband would always say you must love that outfit. Well since going natural for some reason, when I wear my hair in a wash and go, I instantly start to sing "She got a light skinned friend look like Michael Jackson, She got a dark skinned friend look like Michael Jackson". Yall know the song "Slow Jamz" by Twista and Kanye West. That kind of explains my attempt at moonwalking in the photo below. I think it's because my curls feel free and they move back and forth on day 1 while drying. It also reminds me of MJ, because as a kid I had his records and I can visualize his hair moving. In addition curls are universal regardless of skin color or shade. The mention of Michael Jackson's name in that song just for some reason triggers "Slow Jamz" when I wear a wash and go. It actually just triggers that one line of the song. I know that's not the conotation of the song, and weirdly I only recall that line. It's quirky, I know. That line of the song just comes up. I can't fully explain it, but it just does.
Do you have a song that comes to mind every time that you wear a certain hairstyle? (Please tell me I'm not the only one. LOL!)
