1.
First, there's the anxiety attack leading up to #washday because the thought alone is a nightmare.
2.
Your kitchen counter looks like a Food Lion-Sally Beauty Supply fusion.
3.
You're constantly trying to stop bobby pins, car keys, and other lost valuables from going down the drain.
4.
You have trust issues because some heathen lied and said you only needed a "dime-sized" amount of conditioner.
5.
And because the universe has clearly conspired against you, you never realize you're low on conditioner until you've already washed your hair.
6.
Detangling has your arms looking like First Lady O's, but the rest of your body is still a mystery.

You swear every YouTube vlogger practices witchcraft because detangling should never be that easy.

Your squad waits half way through your Celie plaits to decide they wanna go out.

All hopes and dreams of rocking a twistout are shattered when you wake up and find that your hair still isn't dry.
15.
But then your faith is restored because you can just slick it up into a puff... until you discover you're out of Shea butter and edge control.
No matter how real the struggle gets, though, know that you're not alone.
