OH NO, OH NO, OH NO!!!

I know I would feel the same way! Its new and different but it looks GREAT on you! I am hoping I can make it a year before I cut. I would be so happy with the length you have! Congrats, I can not wait to see the progress and growth!
 
Congrats on your BC! Your hair looks great!

The shrinkage takes a lot of getter use to. I waited about 2 years, and I still was surprised about the shrinkage. The relaxed ends really do weigh the new growth down more than you would expect. All in all, the healthy, natural hair is well worth it!
 
Ditto with previous posters...
we all go through that phase...
you'll get over it when you find how much easier it is to care for natural hair....
you also need to know what you did before might not work anymore...
have you read biracialhair.org or Miss Jessie's... you can get great tips from there.
 
It looks great to me. You carry the style off very nicely :yep:. I think you're just in shock because of the drastic change in length.
 
NO!! you don't look hideous. You look really beautiful and heck, i hope i end up looking like that when i do the BC. You have beautiful hair.
 
your hair is pretty and so are you!:yep:

IMO though i think you should trim a bit more. It looks like the left over relaxer pieces are hindering the true beauty of your hair.

Congrats:dance7:
 
I don't think you have a TWA (at least by my standards) it looks like you are a month or two a way from a BAA actually. And a GORGEOUS BAA at that!!! Your texture looks beautiful!!!! And I know what a shock going from long and straight to short and curly is (I had never had hair above my ears in MY WHOLE LIFE before I BCed) but you will get used to it. And by the time you DO get used to it, your hair will be back down your back again! So don't fret, you look amazing! :grin:
 
It is absolutely gorgeous. I love your texture. I think it frames your face nice.

Personally I LOVE big hair. I love full hair and I kind of have a longish, thinnish face like yours.

Why don't you like it?

I like my hair and I have been experimenting with different products for the last week, so my texture is more defined and I love it.
The problem is the length, I haven't had this short hair in ages and I think I was in shock..It is the length that is the problem, not the texture.
But it will grow and it is long enough to put in a puff.
 
girl! shut up! you still look beautiful :yep: and a bit more chic and fierce, i must say :grin:

you can totally work short hair...not many women can

You have got to be kidding me :spinning:

Chile your hair is beautiful and so are you!

You should have seen my BC! Now that was a mess:yep:
 
You do not look horrible at all. You look great! It will take some time to get used to it. Congrats on your decision to go natural. Have fun!
 
Oh I'm glad this thread got bumped up. As you already know, I was completely shocked when I saw that you BC'd. Your hair is so hot ... it really suits your features well.

Oh ... and I love how you're already doing styles on your newly natural hair (peep the Fotki). You've inspired me to try the coil out method.
