Anyone who knows me is aware of my love for wigs and weaves. I just love to switch it up. I usually wear lace front wigs. They are just soo much fun without having to actually wear my hair out. But I've done soo much research on how to care for my hair that I've been inspired to just go natural. It's sort of a natural progression due to the fact that I haven't relaxed my hair since June 2010. To me it just didn't make sense to put the chemical in my hair anymore since I was wearing wigs.
It's been a week and I'm still sporting my own hair and I love it! Now I know what natural wearers means when they say it's a freeing experience. I just get up and go. Now don't be confused I didn't do the BC "Big Chop". Instead I've decided to transition. Most people don't transition because its a lot of work and maintenence. I reguarly trim my a hair so I figure in a couple months most of the relaxed hair will be gone.
In the meantime for the next 4 months I will be experimenting with twist outs, braid outs, and perm rods. When it gets a bit longer I will try flexi rods. My ultimate hair goal is BSL "bra strap length". I'm prepared and understand that this is a journey.
What do you think of my natural look?
