I'm natural and not tempted at all. For the very reason you stated about the harmful chemicals. So you want to wear your hair out more often? Just do it. You can still grow and maintain your hair with wash-n-gos, twistouts, etc. Try different things say, 3times a week and hide your hair for 4 days. Don't make any big decisions now because you know that getting rid of the perm later will mean growing it out and cutting the ends all over again.
I'm not the OP, but the problem is that once you hit a certain length, tangles + SSKs are a beast. I tried leaving my hair out/WnGo and it was horrible. I have fine hair and twist-outs are no bueno either.
As for the general discussion, I have been considering a texlax. I'd like to have a different style for the next few years and I am so TIRED of detangling and wash days!
Being natural has so many pro's and con's, but after 7 years, no one can say that I haven't tried
