Wow...Your hair is beautiful!
I can see why you miss your coils:yep:

The nice thing about hair is as long as your are alive...IT GROWS...so you can go back and forth between textures....Maybe you just had to get it out of your system to truly tell if you were sure of this relaxer thing...so now you have your answer!:rolleyes:

Sorry to hear that you're not liking the relaxed hair. That's the one thing with relaxers, once it's done, if you don't like it , there's no easy fix. Good luck on your new journey, and no you're not crazy!!

Girl, your natural hair was too beautiful! I would miss that too. Hair grows back though. You'll have that hair back in no time. You have a lifetime to experiment with your hair so have fun girl. At least now you realize exactly how you prefer your hair. Can't wait to see your gorgeous hair through your transition and natural journey.

Oh girl, its hair. Easy come....easy go....easy relax.....not so easy natural. LOL!!!

I was thinking about texturizing my hair. I don't know why, just because.

It's a good thing I wear wigs, or I'll probably would have already done that.

I had locs for about 3 1/2 yrs, cut them and stayed natural for about 2 yrs (no pic for this period), relaxed and almost instantly regretted it. Although I was able to keep my relaxed hair healthy, I missed the feel of my natural hair. I lasted 10 mths, transitioned 7 mths, did the BC, stayed "loose" for a year and now I'm 9 mths into locing again.

Your natural hair is beautiful. I can understand why you would miss it. But time will fly and you will be back there in no time.

Girl, your naatural hair is beautiful!!!! Why DID you relax??? You had some really nice styles too!

lol idk, maybe I was just tired of the time that it took to do my hair. BUT my relaxed hair is just as time consuming AND I have to baby it. I never did the protein treatments, now I do. :/ And my relaxed hair doesn't like color very well. My natural hair can stand it. I will be back natural in no time. :yep:

lol like every1 tells me, make sure you really want to be relaxed because once you do it, its a done deal! being natural is the bomb lol, it just takes patience and determination.

Well maybe we should be each others cheerleaders! When we want to revert, be like DO YOU REMEMBER THAT TIME YOU WERE RELAXED lol

Wow...Your hair is beautiful!
I can see why you miss your coils:yep:

The nice thing about hair is as long as your are alive...IT GROWS...so you can go back and forth between textures....Maybe you just had to get it out of your system to truly tell if you were sure of this relaxer thing...so now you have your answer!:rolleyes:


So true, hair grows! But I just think about how many years I'm setting myself back lol. But it is what it is! Thank you, you're right about that. I know that I don't like relaxers for ME.
