Get you a Massage Therapist you can truly be yourself around! 🤣😭💆🏾♀️ No, but in all seriousness, this picture may seem funny at first, but it symbolizes something much larger=representation!
I remember when I was still a loose natural wearing different protective styles, weaves, or wigs and feeling so self conscious going to Massage appointments. Instead of fully relaxing I was preoccupied with thoughts like:
“I hope they don’t mess up my hair”
“Are their fingers gonna get caught in between the wefts?”
“Should I tell them I have a wig on so they don’t pull it off by accident?”
Usually what would end up happening is I would tell them they can just skip massaging my head completely 🤷🏾♀️.
The fact that someone instantly felt comfortable enough to come into my space, let their guard down and even hang up their wig all on their own makes me feel like who I naturally am and what I’m doing truly makes a difference!
