I am texlaxed and my just about APL shrinks up to NL when dry. Like another lady said, my curl size is about the same but my hair hangs a bit more now. I have crazy shrinkage but not as bad as I would natural.
I haven't touched up since March and I really would love to be natural but I am a length whore! I have seen ladies with BSL and longer natural that shows no length when dry and I don't want that so I understand exactly where you are coming from.
I henna but don't notice a difference in curl pattern. Twist outs and braid outs show more length but I want my hair out with a curl pattern more similar to mine own. I wish I could help you out because than I could help myself too. I actually wanted to texlax further for less shrinkage but decided to wait for more length to see if it would give me more hang but it doesn't seem to be happening yet.
Does anyone have pics of natural hair that got more hang as it grew? I'm starting to think this doesn't really happen unless you are a type 3 or lower.
