So this is no kind of surprise but I love my hair. It's wild. It's curly. It's thick. It takes a licking & mostly keeps on ticking. It's a pain in the ass to do, but man, when it's done, it looks good!

So whether long/short, curly/straight, this is a hair appreciation thread
My original hairstylist was my mother. (theroot.com/28-days-of-bla…)

One of my fav pics of my hair from when she did it was this headshot from my first day of junior high which started a rumor that I was Polynesian for 2 seconds.

This would not be the last time my hair did this.
Note the very early 90s bangs (hideous), but other than that, not a bad job, mommy!

This was also the first time she EVER let me wear my hair down for a photo

#dungeonsanddragons #CriticalRole
I am CEO of a really tiny RPG company that is desperately trying to break even on our products. We do this for love, for sure, but things cost money. Not only that, as much as I thought I did, the main thing that I have learned is how much work it takes to make even small things.
Right now we are working on a #savage worlds setting called #ArchonsofNikud and it is going to cost us thousands of dollars and untold thousands of person hours to make. It is hard to describe the blood, sweat, and tears that will go into this project.
