I'm free, I'm free, I'm free!!!!!

[nychaelasymone]

no more braids!!! no more weaves!!! just my hair....... I cut it all off and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Although my stylist gave me a discount cause I cried the entire time she cut my hair. What a traumatic experience but....I'm free, I'm free, I'm free...and I actually feel okay about it. I've received lots of complements and that made me feel really good. Prayerfully, when my honey comes back from Trinidad, he'll love it to.............

girl how about im about to do the same as you today if i can make it in to my hair stylist and she has an opening to do it today....congrats....i took out my weave last night because i was gettin sick and tired of it and my face was breaking out because of the oil that the weave was holding in the bang...i just am sick of braids and weaves because its causing more damage and my hair has broken off so so bad all over....doesnt make any sense on saving hair that cant be saved...and i rather go ahead and cut it and start over fresh and new....

You did a big chop or just cut it all off? Why wouldnt he like it? Its still you Im sure it looks great!

 

[HoneyDew]

I am curious too. Big chop or just a hair cut?

I am loving that so many people are starting to enjoy that free feeling of just wearing their own hair. I did not do a BC, I am relaxed, but it still feels good to be w/o the weave.

I like braids, though. If I am going to the beach or something this summer, I would get some braids, but it feels good to not depend on them to get by on a daily basis.

I am sure your honey will love it!!!

no I did the big chop....I mean I have a Halle Berry cut. All I gotta do in the morning is run my fingers through it, slap some mango butter on and walk out the door. I feel rather sexy but my man hates short hair.

She gave me a big discount....I cried like a baby. All the stylist were rubbing my shoulders telling me it was going to be okay......I just couldn't believe it!!! but then I got home, slapped some make up on, dolled myself up and I was like.....dayum...I'm sexy!!!!!! I got to work and everyone kept telling me I looked so sophisticated. All the security officers were like dayum!!!! So...that West Indian fine man of mine better react the same...or I will light him up!!!!!!!!!

Just do it!!! It's so freeing!!!

Well girl, if you feel sexy, you man will notice that and I am sure he will like it. The new attitude and happiness you feel may even overcompensate for his preference of long hair on you.

That is what got me by with mine. I wore weave because my BF liked long hair. He told me that very early in our relationship. But my new feelings have really been attractive to him so it has not been a big deal at all.

Girl where are the pics i want to see this....im calling around as we speak to see if anyone can let me walk in after i leave work...because thats what i need is to be able to have something simple when those curls go to fall and dont hold up...just to slap on something and its still molded and looks taperd and good...so i dont feel insecure about not having my hair done....

Same here...he loves braids and long hair. In honesty, I love him and I know he loves me and hair does grow back. I just can't go back to weaves and braids....(okay maybe some cornrows if I'm traveling). I want my own hair to grow. Now that I know what to do to take care of it, I'm sure it won't be long before I have enough to play with.

I totally second the feeling of freedom! I took my braids out last week and decided that I'm going to wear my own hair out no matter what..first time in years!!!!! My hair is texturized and i'm loving it! For the first time I can wash (co-wash) everyday without having to worry. All I do is let the conditioner sit in my hair while I shower, then I rinse with cold water, shake my head side to side for about 10 minutes, scrunch and go!!!!!! My hair actually curls.... I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS . In the words of the Mcdonald's commercials "ba-da-da-da-da...I luvin it!"

Congrats girl, do your thang!
