    I’ve been natural since 2019 and I want to relax my hair this week. I regret telling anyone I was going to do it because they’ve all been negative about it. At the end of the day it’s my hair and I’m the one who has to live with it.

    As someone who was relaxed for most of my childhood, teen years, and most of my 20's, then was loc'd for almost 9 years, and now rocking a fro again lol, I know the scrutiny we face when it comes to our hair.

      As a white woman, I like black women's hair in all its renditions. I especially like the afros and the braids of hair snd colorful yarn added. i don'tim like when the hair gets pulled so tight you start to lose your hair.
      I have coarse grey brown hair, kinda wavy, bushy and it tangles. Maybe I should try a relaxer. conditioner doesn't smooth it out

    I love your video. I honestly feel the natural hair wearers don’t understand is not everyone’s hair is the same. I went natural for 2.5 years. My hair NEVER acclimated to natural state. It didn’t grow down, it grew outward and upwards, and I was NEVER able to manage it. The more my hair grew, the tighter my curls got. Hundreds of dollars in product every month, constantly clogging the tub from my hair shedding, spending a third of my day on wash days… I was about to spend $350 on a wig as a “protective style”, my husband actually said to me “babe, just relax your hair.” I got my relaxer the next morning and never looked back.

My hair is healthy and long, past my mid back, and when I see my 1 inch of new growth a month, and how hard it is to comb through that, lol, I'd never let it go natural. Who needs to waste that time and trouble when you can relax and get 1 month of healthy hair and no trouble. ❤

      Such a nice story! In a world of ppl saying I’m crazy for still relaxing my hair! My hair is very long and I try to not over process my hair. I do perms in quarters. I’ll go to the Dominicans to get my hair pressed out on month 2 and by month 3 I’m ready for a perm. I don’t pull or tug on my hair bun it and let it be. I love perms it’s all about how you use them. Yes, I don’t think they should be used so often but I do think if you use them correctly they are really good. I went natural for a few and honey my scalp was hurting so bad I hated it! Never looked back.

      @@salexismechelle agreed! I relax my hair only three times a year, and since I’ve struggled with seborrheic dermatitis as a teen, I wash my hair twice a week to keep it under control. So my new growth is doable until it grows out about two inches. With that said, I had a conversation with a former coworker about this issue, she is 100% natural. I was explaining to her that since I relax my hair, I don’t use nowhere near as much hair products as she does. She uses ALOT of gel and edge control products on a daily basis. I only use Jamaican castor oil to keep my hair moisturized and wrapping foam for my edges. That’s it!

      Love your video. I think the trick to maintaining a good relaxed hair is to deep condition each and every time you wash your hair and you must use Heat Protectant along with some kind of leave in conditioner. Each persons hair is different and what works for one wont work but all, but like i said the upkeep is very important

    I personally think you made the best decision for you. I went natural 3 different times before I stayed natural on that 3rd go round. In my 1st 2 tries, I was ill equipped to deal with my hair while working. I just couldn’t deal with it every morning while trying to get to work on time. The second time my curl pattern was affected by color and I hated the color. Third time was a charm though: I was prepared with a plan and I quit coloring. I love it NOW but it took me a loooong time to get there but, it isn’t for everybody and that’s ok.

    You are so right. Most importantly, you went through the process and gave it a try. As for my journey, my last relaxer was July 2015. I big chopped December 30th 2015. Styling was difficult for me the entire time. My new journey is locs. I've been loc'd for about 4 weeks now and I'm loving it so far.

    Your hair looks great. I grew up wearing weave or perming my hair, but this actually damaged my hair and my self-esteem. I started feeling unattractive without the weave or permed hair, so a few years ago, I went all natural and love my hair and have confidence and feel beautiful. Also, I keep it simple, as it grows more I have a fro or twist. I used to spend so much time on my hair, thank God that's over with. Also a problem I used to have with the perm is when it rains or when I sweat, my hair is right back to natural. God bless you.

      Honestly, it’s why I forced myself to go natural and no make up. Since I’ve just got this confidence I can’t explain. Before I use to be weird about my natural hair now I’m better. It’s many natural hair is mid back and I ont even tough it if I’m upset or feeling like it’s just too much. I rather be in a style for a week longer than transfer that negative energy to my hair. Ngl, being natural is a lot though 😩 I was relaxed in my younger years but being natural (like truly natural) has changed me.

    Your hair looks amazing. I permed my hair for a long time. Went natural 10 yrs ago and tried again recently for 18 months and while my hair did become healthy, it was too much work. The moment the weather changed, no matter how much my hair was moisturized or whatever, it would seize up. Couldn't comb through it. Had to braid it to get my length back. Finally before a special occasion smack in the middle of a humid hot summer, I decided to perm my hair. It looked amazing... and it didn't seize up. It's been 6 months & only got 1 touch up. Hair is healthy, growing & I'm happy. I admire ladies who stay natural. Unfortunately my natural days weren't always happy... To each its own. I love both looks & believe in choices... Rock ur beautiful natural looks as well as straightened perm looks🤗🤩

    It's nice to see positive comments on your video. Back in the day, I remember people being dragged for no reason. x.x natural hair is tough. I know mines is a struggle , but I just figured out my porosity and things are getting better !

    Sparkl3!! I’m so glad you were able to try the natural route! Truth be told natural hair definitely isn’t easy, but you did great during your journey!! Either way I love your hair and the care you give to it. Loving that bang too!! I definitely miss having that feathered bang look!❤

    I was so happy for you when you started talking about detangling taking less time now 🥰🥰 mine is type 4 tailbone length and it takes an hour and a half to detangle, so I was laughing when you said 15 minutes was a long time 😂 I'm about to cut my hair to reduce my detangling and styling time. We shouldn't be slaves to our hair and spend more time on it if we don't want to, so we have to do what works best for us

    I was natural for 7 years and agree with you. Having 4c hair, the longer it got the harder it was to manage it so I relaxed it myself and haven’t looked back. The one thing I learned from my natural hair journey was how to stretch the time between perms and how to use protective styling to help keep my permed hair healthy.
