My DH had been sweating me to go natural for political reasons for YEARS. I was like... uh... I have no clue how to care for natural hair... and I don't have time to be detangling all the time. Eventually I came to agree with him though.
I had BC'd before, but wore braids/wigs so he didn't SEE how short and nappy it was. So when I BC'd a year ago and began to rock the TWA, it was a shock. I didn't do any styles, really, just the afro, for a whole year. (I just passed my first nappiversary!) He was supportive, but SO NOT FEELING IT.
This weekend I was preparing my hair for C&G braids, and he saw how long my hair has gotten. It's about 8 inches long, and this is after a cut a few months ago. He was amazed and so happy I went natural.
How did your DH/SO feel about the BC, and when did he come around (if he objected)?
