Do any naturals wear wash and goes/press 50/50 of the time? PLUS please type my hair!
So once again, I wore my hair pressed for about 1.5 months (got it done twice) for some special events and when I went to wash it back, the curl pattern came back loose, and a small portion at the nape at the root stayed straight. This is what I am wondering...do any naturals alternate between pressing and wash and go's frequently? From these experiences I'm really worried about pressing my hair more often than once a year for fear of losing my texture.
Also, I always thought my hair was 4a/4b but now as it is getting longer it is looking like it has a different curl pattern...I'm really bad at typing hair, but it looks like one texture in the front (maybe 3c?) and another in the back (4a or 4b) with a sharp demarcation that can be seen especially when dry.
Its killing me because when I do a wash and go or comb out afro the front looks totally different from the back...the only time my hair "appears" uniform is when I do twist outs. Not sure if my hair got like this since the pressing or it was like this all along (just started wearing my natural hair)
