Dear Hair,

I'm sorry for all of the times that I cut you. It must hurt, doesn't it? I refer to you as "dead ends," and I chop you off.  I'm sorry for all the times I burn you, to take the curl out of you or to put special curls back in. Does that hurt? Does it hurt when I tie you up and pull you around? Does it hurt when I stick metal bars in there to hold you back?
Just know, dear hair, that no matter what I do to you, I will always, always love you. Because no matter what I do to make you look different, you're part of what makes me me. And I will always respect that.

With love,
Laura

  2. I love the way you did this! You used personification and made it seem to the audience's eye as if your hair has feelings. I also like how you mentioned that your hair is what makes you you.
