Well as of last wednesday I have been natural for a year. I stopped transitioning about 2 months ago when I chopped off my relaxed hair. I measured it and I have exaactly 6 inches everywhere. Very even but very short.
Some things I discovered about my hair
my hair is not as think as I thought it was
my hair is a lot thicker than when I relaxed
I have naturally soft hair
my natural hair is shiny
my hair is EXTREMELY curly-- I am starting to think that my hair is beyond 4a/b-- my hair might have its own category like a 5a/b or something
My stylist shrieked when she saw my hair- she said its the curliest she has ever seen.
My plans
I am getting my hair texturized in about 2 weeks but I am still considering ways to relax the curls without harsh chemicals
I am going to switch to braids and weaves using the crown and glory method.
I am currently looking for a detangler and products that are ultra moisturizing.
