I think he will be so happy that you talked him into going natural! Good for you! I know the progress will be great!
Stop putting everything on the South. Relaxers on men in the South are very uncommon. Presses on men in the South are very uncommon. Maybe in one town in the South but I havent seen it. I actually have seen it more in the Midwest if I had to pick an area. Every city in the South is not the same. Please stop the stereotyping.
Maybe doing a BKT will help during his transition.
Relaxers on men in general are uncommon. Period. I forget what it's called in psychology, when you assume something is the norm just cause you know like 10 people doing it. *shrugs*
Nevertheless, glad to see another man doing the right thing. Good luck, and hope to see pics soon.
What part of FL? Northwest, Central, South, etc....and yes, it's very humid. I live in Northwest FL.I agree with this. Though, living in North Texas i haven't seen a man with a relaxer but I haven't been all over this state either. One think is that we are moving to FL in 3 weeks and I hope he doesnt back out of going natural because of the humidity! As long as he stays in braids I think he will be okay, but its the flat ironing once a year that I'm nervous about! His hair will revert as soon as he steps outside.

No it wont. The goal is to get him natural first. TheN focus on length retention. Since he wont do a BC, Ill be cutting out the relaxer little by little. Then when hes fully natural we'll focus on length retention.Congrats to your hubby!
I'm confused on one thing though; if his hair grows about 1/2 an inch per month and you're trimming 1/2 an inch a month anyway, wouldn't that be eliminating his progress?
West Central....um, I know Central but not west Central, lol. It's all good. Welcome to Florida! The humidity is a beast but you'll learn how to cope with it once you become climatized. I'm a native Floridian so I'm use to it (sorta).
