LOL, honey, you must be doing something right, because he said "velvet" instead of "steel wool." *goes off to find a suitable shoe to throw at my obnoxious little sister*
 
When you wear a bun and pretty much all of your exposed hair is newgrowth.

Here I am today:

Eta: not sure why the pic posted twice and upside down. :ohwell:

when you can't pull your hair back and it looks decent.
when you can't use combs
when your hair won't flatiron straight no matter what you do.
 
-When you have to go back to your calendar to remember how many weeks post you are.
-When you know you'll have to enlist help when do finally relax
-When washing your hair in sections is a necessity.
-When you have no idea what your length is anymore.
 
When you look at your relaxer countdown widget and the date is longer than your planned relaxer date.

You panic and go research threads to see exactly when you relaxed so you can count the weeks. Was it September???
 
When you think you're finally getting past BSL but look like this:

Newgrowth shrinkage is no joke!

When you wanna give up half way through doing your hair to sit down and watch TV. And give the death stare to anyone who says anything.
 
When a woman stops you on the street while you're out on lunch break and asks you about your regimen and how she's struggling with her natural hair only to learn that you're not natural and the look on her face when she musters up the words to say " you're relaxed?? Sorry, you have nice hair it's too bad it's not natural."

:lol: It's so funny how naturals are disappointed that we're not one of them......even though we look like it. :look:
 
When you do a heatless, curly style to blend your new growth and relaxed hair together and people swear up and down you're natural because you have that pretty "good hair". I swear I gave this woman the stare downs of all stare downs when she said those blasphemous words.
 
Dh just asked me if I'm going natural or what? :confused: Whet???

How he know what 'going natural' is anyway? o_O

But, this is the first time he's said something, so yeah, I'm looking a bit rough around the edges (literally and figuratively). Plan to relax Friday or Saturday. :yep:
