This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Dove and The bLink Marketing Network. The opinions and text are all mine. You remember when I chopped all my hair off to a fade about 3 years ago? Well, I kept it short for about a year and started regrowing it to donate yet again. I didn't know what I wanted to do with it. Keep it short...grow it...color it.. straighten it again. (PS Did you know that 8 out of 10 women feel pressured to wear their hair a certain way?! ...
