I have a gf of mine who used to say her hair was naturally straight. I know someone will argue me down about this but I don't think black or even mixed people have naturally STRAIGHT hair. I believe some of them have loose curls but I have never seen a black person with naturally BONE STRAIGHT hair (unless pressed of ocurse).
So anyways, I was at her house one day and went to go use her bathroom (she lived alone) and I saw a box perm in her bathroom (I went under the sink to get some tp cause there were only two squares left on the roll).
I didn't say anything about it...but I took note of the condition of her hair.
About 2 weeks later her edges looked "neater" than it did previously and when I went to go look under the sink (just being nosey this time) it was gone.
So what am I supposed to think.
But then of course I DO actually know naturals (mostly naturals) who only relax their edges periodically and not all their hair...
can you still call yourself natural if you do that?
