It's funny you saying you missed your rollersets because when you bc'd I remember thinking how well your hair was doing with your rollersets. It always looked so pretty. Perhaps texlaxing will give you what you want--more ease with getting sleek styles but still maintain some thickness. It just seems like it is difficult getting it just right though.
I am determined to stay natural for awhile, just made my 2 year anniversary and goodness if I had a major setback I would be devistated--that is what keeps me on course for now. I ask myself if I would be hurt over a setback, and the answer is always yes. I am not at the point where I could just say oh well and bc again or go through a long transition. I want health and length first. I gave relaxers nearly 30 years and stayed at neck length forever, just two years of being natural and I am SL and shooting for APL by the end of the year, so I gotta give my natural hair more time.
If you really really want straight hair most of the time and feel confident you can take good care of it, I say go for it. If you are unsure at all just give yourself a few more months or even another year. I always say just do what will make you the happiest.
