    I've pointed this out as an issue to people in the past. It hasn't been one for me for years because my hair is natural, and when it was relaxed it was wash and wear.

    Hello to all of my fitness ladies, add me as a friend and let's stay in touch and help each other ^_^ to the op: It is sad that the hair excuse is true but it is understandable. I'm coming up with many alternatives for women who want to be fit and also look beautiful. ^_^

    I've been natural now over 2 years. As far as exercising I either wear it in a bun or braided. I also wear lace wigs, or regular wigs to the gym... guess it all depends on my mood and what will hold up after a bunch of sweat lol. ^_^

    Hi all! It is exciting to read about sistas serious about fitness! Even in Chicago I don't meet a lot of us who openly place this as a priority, so this is great! If you could use another buddy and for any Chi-town people please add me, I'd live to read about you!

    About the hair, I don't trip because of the locs. A few years ago, I had the short do that had to be done every week. I was taking a class in karate for a while and loved it so much, that do would just get a scarf around it and I'd sweat myself happy! The rewards of the class were so much more than the hair. I realized that we have to find something that means more than image and I did! It was an exciting time.
