Ive made up my mind. I'm sick and tired of relaxers and I think I'm going to go natural. But the only problem is Ive gotten my hair to a point where I'm comfortable with the length.
I went to a salon that specializes in natural hair, and I was told that a great style to wear my hair in to transition is something called a "Straw curl".
Ive seen pictures of this, and I like it. But all the pictures Ive seen were on girls with chin length to shoulder length hair. Does anybody know how these would look on a girl with APL-BSL hair? Anyone have any pictures?
Also, is this a good idea for my hair?
Whats the upkeep like? The hairdresser told me I could wear the style for a month, as long as I didn't wash it or get it wet in any way. Is this healthy?
What are your thoughts? Im not trying to do a big chop for a LONG time. I want to grow out my natural hair and see if its a grade I can manage and want to deal with long term before I make the decision to cut the rest off.
