While I like to see people attempting to wear their natural hair, I'm not sure if that is a good idea, Pandora. Natural and relaxed hair do not get along and eventually the strength of the natural hair with break off the relaxed ends. Long haired transitioners are usually the most upset because they realize that they are going to have to cut off a serious portion of their hair. You might have to start over.
If anything it should be the reverse. Grow your hair long naturally then perm it.

Fair point. I also read that the breakage depends on the texture of the natural hair and the contrast between the two. due to vitamins my natiral hair is more the wavy type so i may get away with it for a few months. thanks for the warning, Brighteyes. /images/graemlins/smile.gif
