Natural hair?

This August will be my two year anniversary being natural. When I first decided to go natural, I was afraid of what other people would think. I went without getting a perm for 10 months (August - May). This isn't the best idea because your hair grows slower than it usually would if you were to cut the perm off from the start. During this ten month period, I had my roots pressed. My parents were supportive of my decision but my friends where like "WTF!" lol I cut my hair this previous summer and it grew like crazy! I started of at 3 inches (TWA) now I'm just over seven inches. After I cut my hair, I had micro-braids to grow it out a bit more. I took those out in September. I wear it loose now. Don't listen to myths about natural hair. Many people are misinformed. Go to my source for more info.

Products I use on my hair:

Parnevu Leave in conditioner

Elasta QP Hair Conditioner

Blue magic coconut hair grease

Herbal Essence hair shampoo

Every night I plait my hair and I use a satin hair scarf. I wash my hair 1-2 times a week.

Being natural is liberating. It really helped my confidence.

It takes a while for you to grow out a perm/relaxed hair. Maybe you can get it braided up. Not very sure on what else to say. Try this web forum. http://forum.blackhairmedia.com/

IT ALL DEPENDS ON HOW LONG YOU HAIR IS. TO GO NATURAL YOU WILL MOST LIKELY HAVE TO CUT SOME OFF THE END SO THE IT WONT TAKE THAT LONG TO GROW OUT. NORMALLY 6MTH TO A YEAR FOR IT ALL TO BE OUT. TRUST IM A HAIR STYLIST

I am natural now after years of wearing a relaxer. I let about 6-7 weeks of new growth come in then I cut off the relaxed part. If I recommend doing that if you don't want to risk breakage. Your hair will be very weak at the point that the relaxed hair meets the natural hair. I am currently using Aphogee products on my hair and I started using it when I started the transition process.

the only way to totally rid ur hair of a perm is to shave it off and start fresh. i'm serious. the perm breaks the natural bond and shape of the hair in order to "relax" it. the hair will never truly correct and heal itself when going back to a semi-natural stage. cut the perm and let it grow out.

or u can grow it all out and keep cutting the ends but that's just pointless. fresh beginnings are best
