i really wish i hadn't relaxed my hair. when i straighten, the natural length of my hair is so silky and shiny and straight, and the relaxed part is a little more stiff, and is this ugly brown color. if i had stayed natural, my whole length could've been black, shiny, and flowy.​
 
I’m really enjoying my transition and loving my hair at the moment. It’s amazing how much I’ve learned on this forum which in turn has led to continuing improvements in my hair. Wish I’d transitioned sooner as I can’t wait to be fully natural, I’m so excited!
 
I'm loving all the big chops that i'm seeing on the board!!

I wonder why it is bothering some people?*shrugs*


I'm loving how excited my Dad is about the possibilities of my afro:lachen:

I know i'm taking him back to his afro days with my new cut and his excitement surely does give me a boost:yep:.
Thanks Daddy!!!!
 


I actually have more than enough new
growth to BC.. I just want to make sure my
hair will be bigger and fuller than the naturals
in my class.... especially one girl in particular, who is a 3c,
she keeps telling me that kinkier hair won't grow too
long.. I'll show her..
 
i am so in love with my puff today. i may have to take a week off from protective styling in braids and twists because this puff is so darn soft and fluff and cute and i miss co washing.

I want long hair because I want to be in the minority. I want something coveted by many. I want to feel special than most. I want to stand out....I want long hair to make me feel superior.

This is EXACTLY IT!!!! In a nutshell! Nuff Said!:cup:
 
Lately, I've been tired of weekly roller sets to my hair. So this week I tried something new....

I took the blow dryer and flat iron to my hair after this weeks wash. I loved how easy and quick it was. My hair is just as straight as if I rollerset it. I may continue with this bimonthly until I come out of my rollersetting rut.
 
I confess....today, I was doing my laundry and I took a towel out of the basket, put it on my head, and started swanging it around like it was hair. :nono: I don't know why I did it. I just felt the urge.

Oh yeah, and I also confess that after over a year of not using direct heat, I'm going to buy a flat iron and use it.
And I am excited. :rofl:
 
man i love flatironing my hair! it looks awesome, and the natural part is so shiny and smooth! i can't wait to be fully natural and straighten. watch out now!​

I confess....

...I'm almost 9 months into my transition and really want to BC, but I'm afraid of what my bosses will think. I hold a pretty high position and I think about whether they'll see me in the same light. :perplexed

...Another reason I haven't BC'd yet is because my camera is broken and I say to myself "well you HAVE to take pics to post on LHCF!".

... As soon as I get in the car after work, I take my bun down do I can feel my curls/coils all the way home.

I walk in the house looking crazy with my hair all over my head every night cuz I do this too! I cant help it!
 
I confess that I secretly imagine my hair being so long that it covers my boobs...
if I ever get to this point someone is going to have to hold me back...cuz imma go streakin (top up anyway) lol :blondboob
 
Often I imagine my hair being, "at least" knee length...... I picture myself at work with my hair in a bun all the time. After months of people thinking that my hair is fairly short, I "somehow" get into a conversation about long hair and then suggest to everyone that we all wear our hair down for the next day -- just to see the looks on everyone's face when they see how long my hair really is:lachen:I'm also obsessed with long hair and when I see someone constantly dangling their hair around me I get so upset (without showing it) and imagine me dangling my hair around them!
 
I picture myself going back to my Class Reunion or seeing some old acquaintances (especially old boyfriends that may have ditched me) and having Super Long Hair just to see the looks on everyone's face since my hair was always relatively shorter than everyone else's.

I daydream about seeing some old acquaintances who used to have really long hair when we were growing up who used to never let anyone forget how much hair they had and then wearing my hair down and being way much longer than theirs!!

:yep: Story of my life. I fully plan on "accidentally" slapping a few of them in the face with it too. More than once. :look:
 
I confess that I really should be protective styling but I have no clue what to do! I've been doing 4 dookie cornrows in my head, spraying my moisturizer over them tying a scarf on and then my beanie on top. I only take the braids out when I go out. I feel like such a bum! LOL!

I'm done with weaves, I tried to wig it and I didn't last a week. I was thinking micros but I'll be damned if I pay $80-120 for some braids and take em out in less than 4 weeks since I get tired of that stuff so quick. Plus although I'm grateful that I'm finally at APL I know that I want the hair braided past my length. Ugh. I'm confused, lol.
 
This was a great thread!

I confess:

That I secretly love that my sister doesn't take care of her hair and that I am in a secret race to grow my hair longer than hers.

I laugh out loud and on the inside when I see some of these terrible weaves and hairstyles.

I laugh, smh, and feel sorry for some people and their jacked up, dried, thirsty, hungry, overproceesed, laid to the side, unloved, just plain ugly and chewed up looking hair.

I feel superior already with my hair at it's current length because it is healthy and growing.

i can't wait to have APL hair. The day I straighten my hair and it's THAT long. I don't know...that will be the day. It's smooth sailing after that..hopefully.

Going natural was the best thing ever for my self esteem, and fashion choices.

I wish there was more type 4 naturals on youtube and other places so I can relate and have someone too look up to and aspire for THAT hair.

I can't wait to go to hair school. I just imagine myself making good money in the industry. And I want to talk about hair ALL DAY...for money.

I wish everyone knew about hair boards for whatever race or hairtype they are.

The first thing I look at on a person is their hair.

I think about hair ALL DAY everyday. It excites to a point of embarssment, thinking about hair and what I want to do to my hair gets me HIGH. I wish everyone love hair so we could talk all day :)

I want the man, the car, the nice clothes and jewlery, the fly house,the money, and the long swangin' hair flowin down my back, and I am on a serious quest to get it.

I also confess that I don't know if I feel comfortable wearing my hair in an afro puff to go tour the PM school today. I hope they don't judge me.

I'm really in love with my hair right now. I can't keep my hands out of it. I'm always fingering my kinks and coils :love:. If fondling hair was a crime, I'd be on death row...and I wouldn't have it any other way :lachen:

Good for you! :grin:

I can't wait to get there. I'm back to having protein overload; it seems like I just can't use protein AT ALL!! Even a drop will take me back. Because of using too much protein last year; I am extremely sensitive to protein. Now, I just focus on moisture. I wanna stretch my relaxer because my roots are thick but so soft, but I can't. Maybe next month. :yep:
 
i check my hair underneath my wig about 20 times a day to see if it has crept out the scalp some more and im going through too much top solve adhesive remover doing this...someone please help me.
and when i wake up the next morning and notice my head getting darker and darker (newly baldie) i am overcome with an unexplainable feeling of joy like i can cry....

When I'm extra frustrated with my hair, I look at pictures of other people's heads and I feel better because mine doesn't look like that even on a bad day. Sort of like when I'm broke and I see a homeless person I feel thankful that I'm not homeless.

:lachen:Lawdhamercy!!!!
 
1. I talk about hair so much that my mother and cousin run when they see me coming.

2. I sometimes dream about hair products(Afroveda,Oyin handmade), especially when I have a package coming.

3. I love being natural and have no desire for relaxed hair ever again.

4. One day I may loc my hair.

5. I'm glad that my mother (who is relaxed) never put chemicals in my hair as a child. I was the one who relaxed my hair as a teenager. She also supports my decision to be natural.
