Post your Before and after BC pics for inspiration

[Lynnerie]

Hey yall,

Can we post pics of your before and after BC pics. This is inspired by the "Transitioning is too much fuss anybody ever tempted to cut it all off" thread.

I read a lot of comments about folks being scared to cut cause they think they will not be pretty or they think they have a big head.

So let's just use this as an inspiration thread to show that the world doesn't come to an end when you cut it off.

(If you transitioned for a long time you are still welcome to share your pics)
If there is another thread like this..my bad!
So here goes....Relaxed to Natural. And oh by the way...

Thanks for this post, I need this for reassurance and inspiration because I feel I am going to BC before my 1 year target.

And You're very welcome! I planned on BCing after a year but I didn't make it. It was getting very hard and I knew I was either going to relax or chop. I chopped at 8.5 weeks. And now that the relaxed part is gone dealing with my hair is so much easier. No more matting or tangling. Good luck with your transition.

Keep those pics coming ladies! You all look beautiful
