I'm all excited to take my hair down thinking that , that patch of hair I cut off in October is going to magically be the same length as the rest of my hair. :cool:

I cut off 10 inches of hair taking down my crochet braids......... its only been 4 months... :rolleyes:
That's why Im going straight into some kinky braids as soon as I dye my hair. :bdance:

I was twisting up my hair the other day, and my twists were shrinking up. My friend goes “your hair isn’t as long as I thought.” I can’t believe I do this, but I retwist a section. It kept her quiet and all, but I wish I didn’t feel the need to do that. I know she’s not a hater y any stretch, but I really felt some kind of way about that comment.

I used to get my hair flat ironed stick straight every 8 weeks. Then I got heat damage and I stopped. But now that I haven’t straightened my hair for 15 months I’m realizing that all my hair is heat damaged to some extent. I just didn’t realize it until a few parts went completely straight. My hair that has never seen heat is curlier and blacker than the rest of my hair.

I went through all my products and found a mother load of stuff I now cannot use. My friend is going to be happy when she get this stuff. I on the other hand will have empty pockets and nappy twist. lol

I’ve been doing a transition of some sort for 7 years now. First I spent 2.5 years going from relaxed to texlaxed. Then 3 years going from texlaxed to natural. And now I have to transition out of heat damage. If only I had given up relaxers and heat way back in 2012 I’d probably be TBL now.

I guess all this transitioning has eased me into accepting my texture.

On June 5th, 2019 I will be 4 years post relaxer and I will have full HL hair. Time flys. I remember having having a fresh relaxer on June 5, 2015. I was at a party drinking and all I could think about was "my natural hair journey starts tonight."

What made you decide to go natural? Was it something that happened at the party? Or had you been thinking about it for a while?
