Natural Hair

Wow, it's been SO long since I have updated my blog. This post is going to be about hair. Let's get right to it....

"We don't go natural, we return. Natural is where it began!"


I went natural December 23rd, 2013. I didn't plan on transitioning to go natural, but retrospectively I transitioned for a few months before cutting the relaxed ends off. I had a haircut and my last relaxer in May of that year. I was letting my cut grow out and never got another relaxer. So, by December, my new growth was pretty wild and hard to tame. I was getting tired of washing, blow drying, and flat ironing the two textures. During winter break, I decided I wasn't going to be stuck doing my hair the entire time. I cut the relaxed ends off. I have never felt so free!

The picture below is from the day I cut my hair! It wasn't perfect, but I was happy to be free lol...



I have had it cut and shaped a couple times since then. I have been a little scissor happy with trimming my own ends. I need my ends trimmed one more time and then I'll leave it alone!

This is my hair as of last week! My shrinkage is crazy, but this is what it looks like when it's stretched a bit. I don't use a lot of heat, but once in a while, I'll flat iron it and wear it until shrinkage gets the best of me lol...

Okay, that's my little hair story lol... I'll be back soon!
