So much caught me by surprise:
I thought I would have a straight fro when instead I have coils.
I thought I would be a natural who straightens often, when in fact it's too much work and I can never get my ends straight.
I never thought I had the type of hair that can be styled without straightening (didn't know about twistouts, braidouts).
I didn't know anything about knots.
I didn't think I would get compliments on my natural hair.
I was surprised that dh really loves my natural hair as he had never seen it before.
I didn't know natural hair can be soft.
I didn't know that I was going to have the hand in the hair disease. I guess I'm still amazed by my natural hair.
I didn't know my fine hair can "look" thick in its natural state although it's still fine hair.
I didn't know I was going to be a triangle head. My hair is very fine and soft at the root and gets thicker towards the ends...flat on top, bigger at the bottom.
YES! I love the things amazing things natural hair can do. I love how I can pretty much mimic any other hair texture, and I don't even need heat to do it! I'm waiting for my hair to grow to a decent length (full SL?), so I can play around with it. I plan to give myself a "Mimic The Hairstyle Challenge" where I find a texture I like and try to find out what products I can use to achieve without heat! LOL, I love my hair.
