And it is still all Black & Beautiful, I wasn't apologizing for Relaxing, I was apologizing to those who have looked up to me as far as my Twa and when I shaved my head, and when I had bascically no edges and then they grew in,I really connect with the Women on here and feel that I can talk to them about anything, Therefore I have nothing to hide, I refuse to apply a Relaxer and then have my hair look all 3a/3c and curly/wavy and claim that I used a Certain Product to get that look on 4a/4b hair, and most of us know that isn't gonna happen. I am just an Honest Person and if I change I let the Board know, I just wanted those who looked at me through my Hair journey to know why I did what I did and if They felt that I let them down then I apologize, But I am not apologizing for my hair I am just stating that my Journey into natural hair is over as of now.
Yeap! that is my new short chic do in my AvitarI feel good about my cut!
Well, Thats Great!
Thank You so much Connie, I appreciate that
I feel you, and I understand, trust me. It wasn't that long ago when I became a member on another hair board that shall remain nameless and was excited about transitioning from relaxed to natural hair. The plan was to grow as much new growth as I could stand before doing a big chop, but I still intended to flatiron or blowdry it straight, and the idea of exposing to all that heat on a weekly basis didn't sit well with me. I knew then that going natural wasn't and isn't for me at least right now. The short journey was worth it, because I learned that there's more to our natural hair than puffs and afros, as well as how I could better care for it should I decide to go natural in the future.

I would hope that the ladies would support you just as much with the relaxer as they did with your natural hair. I did the same thing(texturized) the beauty of our hair is that we have endless options
Oh! No Doubt! We get Love no matter what we do to our hair and that is Wonderful,The Ladies here are Wonderful and Helpful and that is why it is so easy to change up whenever you feel like it LOL!!! I have been back and forth like 3-5 times and Got support everytime LOL!!!!! But I am staying with this one for awhile

erplexed!!! Thank God I based myself because I surely would have burned :burning:if I relied on that little lip gloss that she thought would protect my scalp. After that she just started slapping the relaxer on my hair..... didn't detangle my hair or anything. Once again I took the precaution to detangle the night b4. I didn't realize she was putting the creamy crack on UNTIL i looked in the mirror. I was stunned that she started without asking what strength, or relaxer I would like to use. WOW!!! But I took it upon myself to ASK ANYWAY!!.... While she was smoothing the relaxer with her hands it started tingling in the back. I told her and she told a stylist to put some neutralizer on that spot. HUmmmmm... it worked for like 2 mins. 
I told her that my head was tingling and it was time to rinse it out. SHE HAD THE NERVE TO SAY HOLD ON LET ME GO CHECK WITH THE STYLIST TO SEE IF I SHOULD WASH IT OUT
!!! huh??? whose head is at risk??? I looked at her and said "lady its burning". So she rinsed it out. Geez!!! When she rinsed it out I asked her if there was a protein step before the neutralizer and she said yes. So she put it in my hair and I sat with a shower cap over my head for about 15 mins while she washed other girls. HUmmmmmmmmm once again I was just thinking about this site and wondering if I could get some LCHF nazis to come knock some sense into these ppl:hardslap:. WHen she finally got back to me she washed it out and ONCE AGAIN i asked her can she leave the neutralizer in my hair for 5 mins. She said "well im going to wash you like 3 times so the relaxer should be out". I said " Well i want my PH to go down in my hair so I want to leave it on". 
!!!! LMAO!!! she just didnt get it. So after she washed me 3 times, I asked again if she could leave it on.... just then someone had to get their hair blow dried so she said she will leave it on and come back to wash it. lol Good thing she had to blow dry because I was getting mad that she would rinse it after lathering my hair for 2 seconds. So about 10 mins went by and she finally came back to wash it out and wash my hair again. So by then I knew my hair was happy and my mission was complete. Lol I really thought I would leave the wash bowl upset. After rinsing she put the deep conditioner on and I sat under the dryer for about 20-30 mins. (They were getting busy). After rinsing my for the last time I got my rollerset
, sat under the dryer again, and got my hair wrapped. Job well done I would say. Hardly any hairs came out and she had to trim a light amount off my ends.
