Hi ladies!!! I have been gone for a hot minute, but as always you always return home! Well I wanted to share my new journey with ladies who would actually understand my insanity lol!!!

Well I was wearing wigs for a minute and then the glue was killing my edges so I stopped for awhile and then I decided I wanted Rhianna red hair a few weeks ago, but also I had an itch to cut all my hair off! Well I went with the red and ended up totally bleaching and dying my relaxed hair! O.K., bad right? It gets worse! I wanted my hair redder in spots, because the color didn't take well in my crown! I decided to add manic panic to the mix less than a week later!!! Still not the worse part! My hair was fire engine red and a bit crazy for work so I decided to dye it YET AGAIN!!! YES! I dyed it a darker red which was actually very pretty, this was like a week after the manic panic and 2 weeks since the original dye job!

Sooooo I waited 2 weeks after that and I relaxed my hair!!! Can you say sabotage!! So my hair has been breaking like crazy!!! DUH!! Now I knew this was going to happen, but like I said I was already prepared to cut it! This just confined my decision! I woke up yesterday and I could literally rub off my edges!!! They were as dry as the Sahara!! Now I did moisturizer and seal, but my hair was just fried!

Sooooo I told hubby yesterday morning I was going to cut it all off! He said alright lets go! I was like. but wait! Give me a second lol! He hopped up got his clippers and was like lets go! So I let him bald me and let me tell you it was hard to see all my hair on the floor lol! He asked how short and I told him Mr. Clean Bald! So now I look as smooth as a cue ball!!! He cut it all the way down with the clippers and then he lathered me up with shaving cream and got the job done with a razor!!!

Now I have no idea where I am going from here! It is exciting, but totally scary! We went to the grocery store after and people looked at me like I was crazy or sick! My kids think I have lost my mind and told me I should wear a wig, because I am freaking them out lol! My daughter told me"Mom where's your hair? You don't cut your hair, your suppose to have hair!" She is 3 lol! She then proceeded to say that she could see my brain when we were in the car and when we where in the store she kept telling me I looked like an alien very loudly ROFLMAO!!! Hubby loves it oddly enough! He even had me sit in the sun, so the color would even out lol!!!

I have always admired the natural girls and I think I will try that for awhile and see how I like it! I will wear a wig to work until my hair starts growing, because I work with elderly pts. and I just don't think they will get it lol!

Anywho! Glad to be back! Sorry so long!

it was a really nice colour, but when it grows back, its gonna come back really healthy and strong, and you should get good growth in a year, with or without hair you look really pretty, you got that kind of face
 
Wow, you look great either way. It's awesome that your hubby is supportive. LOL @ your kiddos. My son asked me once never to cut my hair because the kids at his school tease about children's mother's who are "bald-headed." smh...

The red was very pretty, too. If you get the urge to color again when your hair grows back, just get colored weave.
 
Kids are crazy, they say anything lol!! You actually look good with it, though I am not usually a fan of this look. What a great hubby, most men would go crazy.
 
You look great!!! Congratulations!! I love that your hubby is so supportive and I admire you for wearing it out for everyone to see :yep:

:lachen: :lachen: :lachen:

Your little one sounds like a handful! :lol: and :wow: I'm totally in awe of your husband for being supportive of such a drastic change!

Welcome back! :yay:
 
Wow! That color was absolutely gorgeous! And you look great sans hair! Welcome back to the HHJ and I hope you keep a fotki or album here on LHCF documenting your growth and journey!
 
You look good with and without!!! I was loving the red in the first pic. Can't wait to see how your journey unfolds.
 
I love it!!!! I love your husband for supporting you. And your 3 year old - hilarious!
She sounds a lot like my 4 year old - hates change. She might start to like it after a while though!
 
Your husband is awesome and super supportive. You know most men would've been like hell naw. The cut looks good on you!!!
 
You look great! At least your have a perfectly round head. I had my SO feel my new growth and he starts feeling my scalp, saying he hopes I never have to go bald b/c my head isn't round! smh And your hair will start growing like wild fire, just wait and see. My friend did this and she had a full head of natural hair in two years by wearing wigs the whole time.
 
I enjoyed reading your story. Kids are so funny, and your husband has a great attitude toward your hair! I look forward to seeing pics as your hair grows out.
 
shadylane21, Hiiiii, I miss you. It's so good to see you Girly. I just recently thought of you and wondered how things were.
Wowww!!! It actually looks great! I'm flabbergasted right now. That took some serious strength. It looks really good on your face. I followed your journey on your channel, and they tend to take some turns don't they! Actually that's a great new start. You can see yourself in stages of hair growth, from beginning to long.
Are you gonna remain natural as the hair grows back?
 
Wooowwwww when I saw the bald head pic my first thought was wow she is hot!!!!

Git it girl!!

your baby had me cracking up "I can see your brain" :rofl:
 
Thanks ladies!!! It really takes some getting use to lol! I find that my head is cold and it feels weird! I went to sleep last night and I kept waking up, because I thought I had hair and felt like I needed to have a wrap on lol! It is a really weird feeling for sure! So what are the staple products for my natural girls out there! I feel my inner PJ coming out!
