Newbie Question: Same Hair As Childhood?

[november wind]

After lurking for several weeks I am finally coming in to say hello and join in on the wonderful threads here and learn from all you wonderful ladies. I have a question about hair types that I couldn't find in the search function. A little bit of background about me: I am relaxed now and want to stretch but I don't know if it will turn into transitioning--I'm between APL and BSL now. I am curious about my natural texture. So I'll shut up and get to my question:

Is our natural hair texture the same as when we are younger about six or seven y/o? My grandma has a pic of me when I was in the first grade and I have afro puffs. Grandma said that when pressed my hair was almost to my waist (so I think I can do that again-yay!). Is age six or seven about the right age for permanent hair texture determination? When I come back from San Antonio in June I will try to remember to post that pic for better illustration (if grandma will give it uperplexed). Thanks for reading my rambling.

No it's not the same. Hair texture changes several times throughout our lifetime.
