Has anyone ever grown their hair out, or gone natural using a texturizer on a very short cut? Someone on another board recommended I do it but I didn't know anyone who had before. Has anyone ever done it or thought about it before?

You can't go natural using a texturize. You are still going to have to grow out the chemical eventually and it is better to deal with your natural texture the sooner the better. If you want to emulate a texturized do, you can do twist outs to get a looser spiral curl than your natural texture. Overall the decision is yours. Texturized hair will loosen your curl pattern so your hair will hang and showcase more length, but your hair is still chemically processed.
