Because of circumstances, I lived in 4 different states before I was 5. I attended 2 different elementary schools, 4 middle schools, 1 high school, and 3 colleges. I have more mailing addresses than some people have shoes in a lifetime!
When I was younger it was difficult. I felt as though I was being ripped out from my setting and cheated out of my childhood. I was constantly leaving behind friends, toys, favorite blankies, and essentially; apart of myself. I had to constantly start over. It became too tiring to be miserable over lost things. So I decided that I wasn't gonna feel sorry for myself and make the best of my situation.
As I got older, I learned how to appreciate my experiences. I was able to meet so many different people, I saw the country, I was allotted the opportunity to be exposed to so many different cultures. At the end, it made me who I am . . . and it also brought me to New York.

Hairstyle:
This super easy!!!! I prepped the hair by spraying her hair with Regis "volumizing spray." I made the loose waves by wrapping locks of hair around a 1 1/2 inch curling iron for a few seconds. Don't clamp it down. I then let it drop. I sprayed her hair again once I was finished. I made sure to tease her hair underneath, all the way to the crown of her head. I combed over the front part of her hair and smooth everything out. I grabbed her bangs and twisted it and pinned it back with 2 bobby pins. I took a butterfly and pinned it to her hair just for a little fun detail.
