I will be transitioning for 3-6 months then depending on how I feel I may cut a few inches off the relaxed ends or cut the relaxed hair completely. I had a long talk with my mother about my hair as a child she said it was more straight as a child and that it did have that bounce like when a natural gets shrinkage their hair when pulled will bounce back. I hope this is not the case oh well the suspense is killing me I have to see what it looks like. I need some courage not to run out and get a relaxer. Anyway my mom said she will comb it for me when I don't feel like it. I admit I am scared in my case my relaxed hair is easier for me to manage. Anyone else doing this that could tell me how is it going?
