I BC'ed...come check me out!

[Blackoutzangel05]

I would love to do it but I'm just not mentally ready. I'm not brave enough to BC so that would mean transistioning for several years like I did before and that can become very draining over time. Just don't have it in me right now, but someday!

You are looking great though, Blackoutzangel!

Are you through with relaxers forever?

I want to reach at least MBL before I even contemplate doing a texlax...I am not done forever but definitely for right now..

check out the fotki for pictures!!!!

Thanks for all the love and support, without this board I would not have been able to do it....

Just out of curiosity what kinda response are you getting offline? I know when I BC my Grandfather and Dad hated it at first. My Grandfather was really into women not cutting their hair. He was old school may he rest in in peace.

Yet, I really had the mind set that this is me and what I want right now and that brought me through. Eventually everyone learned to love it...well maybe everone buy my grandfather lol.

What does your hubby and family think so far?

My hubby is tolerating it. He doesn't necessarily love it but he is running his fingers through it every now and then and he keeps looking at it. He is not a short hair fan at all but knows that this is something that I want to do and once it grows it some more I know he will be completely on board. I was nervous to show him at first but now, I am like I want to go play with it.

My family doesn't know that I cut it, we are currently living with his grandmother, mother and her husband and they haven't said anything about it. Then again if they did I really wouldn't care. I am going to send a nice picture to my parents and sister.....this should be interesting...
