I thought relaxers were a requirement for Black girls.
I had no clue that I had options.
I used to relax ever 4 weeks, went to salons and had my hair fried, died, and laid to the side. My hair was always between SL and APL as a teen.
I had highlights, went blonde for a day lol (I hated it), I used to dye my hair jet black or red. All kinds of marcell crimps...pump it up spray, pink lotion...you name it!!
I've never been one to really do weaves. I've had one sew in in my whole life, if anything I did braid extensions.
I thought my hair was just indestructible bc it was always long. (From a non-lhcf perspective
)
I don't do all that mess now! Wash n go and bun. Conditioner and gel and oil and bun life!
