So I'm 5 1/2 months post relaxer and my head looks a hot tail mess!!! I am sooooooo tempted to make an appointment for tuesday and get this mess relaxed. Braid outs don't work, twistouts don't work, a ponytail doesn't work, basically for the past week i've been walkin around here like who shot john. Trust me, it's not a good look. I want to go natural yall but this shyt is hard. Please provide your support/advice cause I'm going crazy

Are you wearing your hair straight? If so 3/4th inch flat irons are the TRUTH for roots. I got an inexpensive ceramic one from Walmart and use it for the roots after I flat iron down the length. it helps get the roots super straight!

During the week I usually co wash and use Fantasia IC gel (blue) to pull it into a bun. To make your hair lie flat you can put a sick scarf on your head tight after applying the IC gel. It will help smooth the hair down so it stays neat.

Girl, I've been where you are. All I could really do was condition, get some IC gel and slick that mess back into a bun with a cute headband. A phony pony is also an option. But soon enough I ended up chopping. Transitioning is hard. You gotta get creative.

And what's with this Who Shot John? Glamazon used this as a reference to her hair earlier and I'm confused.

Oh no!!! I thought about it, but when i pulled my relaxed ends back and saw how i looked with a TWA I changed my mind

You can start transitioning while wearing a wig until you get your hair into a good regime. Meanwhile, continue to look at the hair boards and you will eventually find a regimen that will work for you while you transition. Hang in there.

I coudn't tell you!! my mom would say that when I was a child and I needed to get my hair done.
I always wondered who the hell was john and why did he get shot
