i want to know why the naturals are natural - especially those who had beautiful, healthy relaxed hair and then decided to go natural.
i'd also like to know why some of you naturals are texlaxed/texturized or relaxed? especially those of you who are texlaxed/texturized. why?? why not just wear it natural?
here's why i'm asking...i'm fed up with my hair. i'm sick of buns and ponytails and i cannot seem to get a nice uniform look when i wear it curly. and i know i look best with my hair down and straight or wavy.
so, after consulting with a "weave expert" today and another stylist last week, i'm almost convinced i should relax or texturize my virgin hair. but, when i had a relaxer over 10yrs ago - my hair did not thrive. then again, i probably didn't know how to take care of it. i'm really scared of the idea of relaxing, so i'd like to hear some convincing arguments on both sides.
i don't know if its worth it. all i know is that i'm sick of having crazy hairline frizz post workouts and i hate having to run to the salon when i want a nice, straightened look for a date or an evening out. i wanna look cute everyday.
so what to do - texlax or not? (and how does the texlax work? how is the application different from relaxer application?)
