[ENG/ESP] LOH Contest #202/ Battles for my hair
Today I am going to tell you an experience that I never thought to tell in public, but, this initiative today has allowed me to bring this personal story to light, so that if there are any going through situations like these, to go ahead and look for different options that life offers us.
Today I want to tell you about the problems I have had throughout my life with my hair and how I have dealt with them.
Since I was a little girl my hair was a bad thing, to say the least, and I didn't see it growing like other girls. I thought I had a disease and that's why my hair wasn't growing.
One day, someone gave me a prescription to grow my hair and the problems started: I suffered burns on my skull, hair loss and had to undergo medical treatment for a long time.
It is true that I got better, but my hair was never the same.
As my hair continued to grow my hair continued to have serious problems and, faced with the diagnosis of permanent hair loss, I decided to look for alternatives and move on with my life.
I researched, studied, asked for advice and first tried to plant my hair, but, as a young woman, I decided to look for a quicker answer and started to braid my hair. I remember the first time I appeared before my parents and siblings with this new hair.
It was so well received that I kept it for 19 years of my life.
However, in 2023, after leaving Cuba and being in Uruguay, I decided to change my hair. It was a risky bet because I was taking off something that had accompanied me for several years and had made me happy, but, it was a change of life and I decided to put on a wig that represented a new stage of my life.
My husband who is with me and my family who is in Cuba saw well this new hair change and, as always, they supported and celebrated this new change in me. In the end I am grateful, because that is what family is for.
This is my participation in the initiative.
I hope you liked it.

Hola a todas las queridas y empoderadas mujeres de la comunidad, espero que estén bien de salud y que sus proyectos se estén cumpliendo según lo tenían previsto.
Hoy voy a contarles una experiencia que jamás pensé contar en público, pero, esta iniciativa de hoy me ha permitido sacar esta historia personal a la luz, para que si hay alguna pasando por situaciones como estas, que sigan adelante y busquen diferentes opciones que la vida nos ofrece.
Hoy quiero explicarles sobre los problemas que he tenido a lo largo de mi vida con mi cabello y la manera de afrontarlos.
Desde pequeña mi cabello fue algo malo, por decirlo de alguna manera, y no veía que me crecía como a otras niñas. Pensé que tenía una enfermedad y por eso mi pelo no crecía.
Un día, alguien me dio una receta para que me creciera el pelo y comenzaron los problemas: sufrí quemaduras en el cráneo, pérdida de cabello y tuve que someterme a tratamiento médico durante mucho tiempo.
Es cierto que mejoré, pero, el cabello nunca volvió a ser el mismo.
En la medida que iba creciendo mi pelo seguía con serios problemas y, ante el diagnóstico de pérdida permanente del cabello, decidí buscar las alternativas y seguir adelante con mi vida.
Indagué, estudié, pedí consejos y primero intenté sembrarme cabello, pero, como joven que estaba ya en la etapa de mujer, decidí buscar una respuesta más rápida y comencé a ponerme trenzas. Recuerdo la primera vez que aparecí ante mis padres y mis hermanos con este nuevo cabello.
Fue tan bien recibido que lo mantuve durante 19 años de mi vida.
Sin embargo, en 2023, luego de salir de Cuba y estando en Uruguay, decidí cambiar mi cabello. Era una apuesta arriesgada porque me quitaba algo que me había acompañado durante varios años y me había hecho feliz, pero, era un cambio de vida y decidí ponerme una peluca que representara una nueva etapa de mi vida.
Mi esposo que está conmigo y mi familia que está en Cuba vieron bien este nuevo cambio de cabello y, como siempre, apoyaron y celebraron este nuevo cambio en mí. Al final lo agradezco, pues, para eso está la familia.
Esta es mi participación en la iniciativa.
Espero que les haya gustado.

As a young woman, it is trauma to lose that much hair. That wig suits you and making you look prettier.
I have a question if you feel comfortable replying. Did the hair loss effect your relationship? Negatively or positively?
Thank you for your words.
I can answer without any problem because this problem has not affected my relationship and I have received a lot of support from my husband. Best regards.
