On juvenile answers in description box "waste of time" (because I didn't want to)
This type of attack on another woman makes no sense, unless you believe that women are being juvenile if they don't straighten bone straight.
QUOTE:
Here are answers to some questions I'm anticipating:
Q) Did you TRIM your hair? Will you trim it while it's straight?
A) No. I did not trim my hair. Surprisingly, my ends were fairly even considering that I do not trim them evenly, ever. I only trim off knots and weathered ends. I am not going to trim my hair while it's straight. Why would I do that? I wear it kinky 99% of the time. Why would I change up a strategy that has gotten me here thus far? There are a lot of opinions and misinformation about trimming, but I don't debate it anymore. :-/ If you prefer to wear your hair straight on a regular basis, evenly trimming your hair may be best for you.
Q) Why didn't you make it bone straight?
A) Because I didn't want to.
Q) Is your hair really waist length?
A) Technically, my longest portion of hair (especially my hair in the back on my right) reaches the narrowest point of my waistline. My narrowest part of my waistline is 24". This is wear my hair falls. So as far as I'm concerned, I've reached my goal.
)
HOWEVER, I am going to continue my growth journey for the rest of the year! Waist length for me is a span that continues for another 6" down the length of my body.
Q) What is your NEW HAIR GOAL?
A) So now, I want the bulk of my hair to be at waist length by August 2011. That will be another 3 - 4" of hair.
At my growth rate (6" a year) I should reach my hipbone by January 2012. With the exception of my DVD footage, I probably won't flat iron it again until then.
Q) Will you be doing a tutorial on flat ironing?
A) No. But I will talk in general about my overall experience in my next video (in a few more days).
Q) Are you worried that your hair won't revert back?
A) No. Not only did I use a moderate heat setting, I did some research about heat. I found out some interesting stuff. A lot of you thought I was "weird" for saving my shed hairs. But they came in handy and that is all that I will say.
)
Q) How long will you keep it straight?
A) It's been 6 days and I'm already anxious to revert my hair back to kinky. But I still have more video/photos to take. So I'll probably keep it straight for the next 4 days at the MOST. It's bad enough I've gone this long without water.
) But I LOVE IT, no regrets

One last thing, a peeve of mine--(*sigh* sorry, i have to say this)
If flat ironing is not for you, that is YOUR choice. I think people are way too concerned about what others do to their hair when they should focus on themselves (and achieving their personal goals if they have them).
The more I've been learning about MY hair and following the hair journeys of other ladies on youtube, I've gained a renewed respect for the CHOICES of others. Much respect to longhairdontcare2011, Brittanynic16, LeobodyC5 and several others. You ladies rock! Thank you for sharing your techniques and journeys on Youtube.

back to the sermon lol....
Personally, I'm not a fan of people who are dogmatic and fascist about hair. It's not only weird (in my opinion) it's annoying. :-/ (hey, someone has to say it! lol)
I flat ironed my hair because it was something *I* wanted to do for MYSELF. Is that okay with you that I do what I want with the hair I've grown? LOL. (see how ridiculous it sounds?)
)
Please know that I respect whatever choices YOU choose to make about your hair. If you use the information on my channel to grow your hair long and then decide to relax it, I will not be mad. Relaxers are not for me, but I will never demonize people for it. Same thing with straightening, or if you wear half wigs, whatever to cover/protect your hair. Again, it's not MY thing, but if its yours, you're still cool with me. I don't make friends based on hair texture or hair choices. I make friends with good, positive spirits.
The purpose of my channel is to provide factual INFORMATION for maintaining hair and retaining length. What you choose to do with that information is completely up to you. I think sometimes people get confused with the dedication I have towards my goals. Just because I do or don't do certain things doesn't mean I'm trying to influence you on any cultural level! Again, all I care about is sharing information in fun and educational way.
Never forget, I'm preoccupied with my life and choices! My friends will even tell you, I mind my own business! ;o)
And that's all for now.
Peace!

Leave the girl alone, her hair looks good. In fact it looks VERY similar to a member's hair here who gets tons of praise. 
I just can't wait to see all these brand new folks BC and think their hair is going to look like Mwedzi's RENEICE results the first time they flat iron it at home. 
erplexed 
but to ME long hair does not equal pretty hair. And no I am not a hater. I have to be what is considered long hair (but I would like it longer 
). But like I said JMHO.
