Okay, I'm Natural. Then Why the Heck Am I Pulling Straight Hair Strands?!

[SND411]

Okay, I am 4b 100% natural. Why do I keep pulling straight hair strands out of my head lately?! I do not understand and I am freaking out! I do not like this! I want my head of hair to be 1000% coil goodness! LOL

Can anyone help me out?

 

[Aviah]

I'm not sure, I get them here and there, doesn't bother me because they're not obvious, and very few. Guess its just that natural variation girl! lol

Whats is the issue?
Are these straight hairs breakage or some type of strand damage?
are they ruining a particular style that you are trying to achive?
do you find them to be full of split ends and knots?
or does it just bother you that a few strands of your hair are not as nappy as the others?erplexed

Not breakage but shed hair

I have random straight hairs all throughout my head. It's just how hair is sometimes, and it's not an issue. Don't worry about it.

 

[Hairsofab]

I have it too.

It could be strands that just didnt revert after they were straightened.

I have straightened my hair in a long time and still find them from time to time. They aren't silky though, still course just straight, like pin straight.

I get them. I never straightened since big chopping. I guess some hair just grows in straight!

That's normal, don't worry about it. Just blend it in and keep it moving. I thought it was the oddest thing when I first noticed them in my head.

 

[empressri]

i think we all have them, dont worry!!!! i have at least two close folks to me, one being my SO and he has a head FULL of perfect coils...with random straight pieces here and there lol it's natural

I'm glad to see I'm not alone in this straight-stand mystery! I've been wondering about this since I began my HHJ a year ago.

My fear was that one of my products had secret ingredients found in relaxers or something and was slowly but surely straightening my hair. I'm being serious, I was scared! Phew!
