Girls and their Hair

From Baby Summer

Girls and their Hair
“I hate my hair!” That's Ana, every morning when she looks in the mirror. She has the same hair as me. Long, dark, straight. The only difference is I love my hair.
“Why don't you hate your hair Dee Dee?” She barks at me.
“I love it because I can braid it, and put it in pony tails, or just one, or just leave it. I can do anything I want with my hair!”
“Ugh,” Ana sighs and shakes her head. “Everything I do with my hair it looks just the same- ugly.”
“Who are you calling ugly?”

Me and Ana have the same hair but we see it in different ways. Ana only sees the bad- like when she wakes up every morning and it is tangley and hurts to brush out. Or how it looks flat when she has been berating it for a few minutes. Hair does that. It's right next to your ears- it can hear you.
