I personally think you made the best decision for you. I went natural 3 different times before I stayed natural on that 3rd go round. In my 1st 2 tries, I was ill equipped to deal with my hair while working. I just couldn’t deal with it every morning while trying to get to work on time. The second time my curl pattern was affected by color and I hated the color. Third time was a charm though: I was prepared with a plan and I quit coloring. I love it NOW but it took me a loooong time to get there but, it isn’t for everybody and that’s ok.

Honestly, it’s why I forced myself to go natural and no make up. Since I’ve just got this confidence I can’t explain. Before I use to be weird about my natural hair now I’m better. It’s many natural hair is mid back and I ont even tough it if I’m upset or feeling like it’s just too much. I rather be in a style for a week longer than transfer that negative energy to my hair. Ngl, being natural is a lot though 😩 I was relaxed in my younger years but being natural (like truly natural) has changed me.

Girl you have some beautiful hair whether if it's natural or relaxed. I had a relaxer for years and then I decided to go natural and that's because I take so much medicine thru out the day that it was taking a toll on my hair. But you can tell that your hair is healthy and strong, so whatever works for you I say go for it☺️😊

Your hair looks great. I grew up wearing weave or perming my hair, but this actually damaged my hair and my self-esteem. I started feeling unattractive without the weave or permed hair, so a few years ago, I went all natural and love my hair and have confidence and feel beautiful. Also, I keep it simple, as it grows more I have a fro or twist. I used to spend so much time on my hair, thank God that's over with. Also a problem I used to have with the perm is when it rains or when I sweat, my hair is right back to natural. God bless you.

Your hair looks amazing. I permed my hair for a long time. Went natural 10 yrs ago and tried again recently for 18 months and while my hair did become healthy, it was too much work. The moment the weather changed, no matter how much my hair was moisturized or whatever, it would seize up. Couldn't comb through it. Had to braid it to get my length back. Finally before a special occasion smack in the middle of a humid hot summer, I decided to perm my hair. It looked amazing... and it didn't seize up. It's been 6 months & only got 1 touch up. Hair is healthy, growing & I'm happy. I admire ladies who stay natural. Unfortunately my natural days weren't always happy... To each its own. I love both looks & believe in choices...

Hey boo! Yes ma'am I'm back again lol. And I think u would look awesome being a straight natural. My hair would revert at the tiniest sight of moisture 😩

Gorgeous! I was amazed at how you got relaxer through all of your virgin hair without any help. You did that for sure. Good luck w your pretty new look!

Your hair is so thick and healthy. I see why you went back because either way you wear your hair it's always healthy and beautiful. I can definitely agree with you about natural hair 4b or 4c being harder to maintain and more time consuming as it gets longer. I'm experiencing this now. I'm seriously thinking about letting mine stay in the twa state or getting a relaxer eventually. Overall your hair is beautifu, bouncy and healthy. You did a great job.

I LOVED this video and your energy!! Always do what’s best for your hair and your lifestyle. This is where I’m at currently with my hair as well. I’ve been natural for a few years now and when it was short, we were chilling. Now that it’s gotten past shoulder length, it is hell. I hate trying to manage it and since my shrinkage is so bad (type 4 hair) I never wear my hair in it’s natural state anyway. I always wear braid outs or twist outs, which is too much to maintain. I miss my relaxed hair and the length it provided 😢 this is inspiring me! Keep going girl! 💖

I love this! I've been natural for a number of years. One day I decided that I wanted to experience as much FUN as possible with my hair. I've cut it, grown it back, bleached it, cut it again, been to the barber's often, got fades with cute designs, grew it out, relaxed it, rocked a pixie cut and here I am again, big chop #4 ready to resume my natural hair journey. Who knows what this will look like now 😅

Thank you for sharing this! The big smile on your face when you see your newly relaxed hair and new length says it all! Good for you! I'm so glad to see this, and so sick of all the natural hair snobs. Natural does NOT mean better, or healthier! That's so stupid. It's a choice as to what you like and what works for you. I've been using relaxer since I was 14, so 39 years! Not once in all that time has a relaxer ever damaged my hair. My hair is healthy and long, past my mid back (my goal is to get it to my waist but its fighting me, lol), and when I see my 1 inch of new growth a month, and how hard it is to comb through lol, I'd never let it go natural! Who needs to waste that much time and trouble when you can relax it and get 1 month of straight and healthy hair and no trouble. You go to bed- your hair is easy to manage and straight, ready to twist and put up for the night. You wake up- your hair is still straight lol, ready to style. It's all just easier. Why make life harder than it has to be. Your hair looks great! Oh and I use the same relaxer as you! ❤ #teamrelaxer ❤
