My hair is 4b and relaxed, I have had so many setbacks and I'm not retaining any length. A major part of that is because I don't like damaged hair so I feel like I can't repair it then I trim it. Any way I'm thinking about transitioning. The problem is that I want to continue wearing my hair straight while I transition. I only have about 4-6 of hair though. If I could manage to keep my hair this same length but trim the relaxed hair as it grows then I don't think it'll be long before I'm fully natural. But once I'm natural would I still be able to wear it straight if it's so short? Is that even realistic or will I have to rock a TWA? I don't think I'm mentally prepared for that yet. Nor do I really want to do braids or weaves or anything like that. I don't think I can do it but if someone's been through this please help. My last relaxer I did with Nairobi for the first time and it seems to be holding up well, the only issues I'm having right now is with the hair that was relaxed before the Nairobi, so maybe I should just stick with Nairobi and slowly trim off the other relaxers. That just might be my best bet so I won't have to use so much heat to get the look I want. IDK, please help.
