Is your hair texture back to 4C or is there still some straight strands. I got heat damage in the front and the back of my hair but I don't want to cut it. If I were to grow it out then would the straight strands still be there?
Everybody must not have 4c hair and I personally have about 2 different textures.Try doing a protein treatment with Aphogee or do the acv and bentonite clay mask first.
Right, I am not big chopping this time. I did it years ago and regretted it big time. I am almost 6 mos post relaxer, bra length and I am just trimming. I will see where I am at a year and go from there.
Don’t do it. Grow it out to shoulder length then cut it. I cut mine too early and ended up wearing braids to grow it out to get out of the “awkward stage” where it ain’t short but not to long. 😊👍🏽
Finally someone who understands big chopping not the only wayyyy. I’m almost two years post now been cutting about 2 inches at a time. About 10 inches to go 😅
@@TheSecretLifeofAngel I’m just seeing this response. I did the big chop 2 months and cut off 9inches of relaxed hair. I had a lot of non-relaxed hair from transitioning. My hair has grown a lot since then. It is to my chin but Chile the shrinkage is a fool! Good luck on your journey.
I relax my hair because it takes too long to maintain. It’s always shrinking after I blow dry it straight to braid it because if I don’t the curls will poke outside the braid even if I two strand twist it before putting in box braids. When my hair was in its natural state it barley grew 😭 after I relaxed my hair it grew longer and it’s shinier. My natural Afro was dull and it was shrunk. A lot of people look down on relaxers but there’s people like me who have no other choice there was no product to lay my hair down it was too curly and too thick to comb through and it hurt in certain places because of all the tugging I was doing trying to comb from the bottom and up😭😭😭even my braids look sleeker with my relaxed hair and it doesn’t feel like I’m braiding forever I relaxed because I am not about to wrestle with my hair everyday but I love seeing other people transitioning back to natural 😩😩
Omg I just saw this comment. You can take care of your hair in any state (being natural or relaxed doesn’t stop your hair from growing.once you mastered how to take care of your hair,it becomes easy for you.
@@msnonny my hair does not operate off of moisture and taking care of it alone 😭my hair has always been that way like in it’s natural state my hair has a hard time growing and when I straighten it out or relax it it’ll take off in growth my hair is weirdddddddddd 😭😭😭
@@msnonny my hair don’t grow like that 😭we all have different hair so my hair specially grows better relaxed than in it’s natural state my natural hair will grow yes but not as fast when I relax it and that’s just how my hair is and my mom and dads hair is the same way genetics also plays a big part too my hair is just different 😭my friend told me to try coconut oil and that actually destroyed my ends so everybody has different hair and mines grows better when no tangles are involved 🤣😭
Hi. My hair is chin length long...i m also transitioning as well.Its been five months too post relaxer. N my natural hair has grown 3 incches long..i m on my hair journey so i m excited. Hopeful i can't wait for my natural hair to grow out.Pray for me sis😊😊
I think I made a full video on this. I use my oil infused with herbs, moisturizing shampoos, clarifying shampoos, dandruff shampoos for itchy scalp, deep conditioning, leave in conditioners, protein treatments, protective styles like mini braids helped me a lot. I’m trying to film a full video on this topic and I will explain everything in details so watch out for my videos coming up from this week❤️.
hey! I have really short damaged relaxed hair and I’m trying to transition to natural. I go to school and we are not allowed to wear any extensions, braids, weaves, etc. There is not much that I can do to my hair. It’s so uneven that the left side is longer than the right. I cant do any simple styles and i dont have enough hair for a big chop. Any tips would be great!❤
My hair is shedding in big chunks. It’s been five months since my last relaxer and that was a “Just for Me” kiddie perm. I don’t know what to do. I see that it’s coming mostly from my edges and it’s the straight hair. I don’t really know what to do.
No on both counts. I did the protein treatment today. Aphogee to see if that helps. The good news is that my hair is thick so I’m hoping I can arrest the shedding. I’ve been watching tons of YouRube as I hate going to a salon.
I just made an appt. It will be three weeks until then because San Antonio apparently has a doctor shortage. Thanks, you never know, you may have saved a life.❤️
Keep the relaxed part until your natural hair is pony tail length its easier to style it that way
Yea I plan to do that.
I relaxed my hair 3 months ago and I just want to go back to natural🥲🥲🥲.
You are so right i cut mine too soon and had to wind up relaxing again now im starting it all over the right way😢
Fr I’m struggling today n cut it way to soon like 3 years ago
I grew my relaxer out out and just trimmed my ends every 3 months. It only took a little over a year. I did roller sets while growing it out.
Exactly what I’m doing right now.I’ve trimmed twice already this month 😀

Yes I will definitely do that
I won’t fall into the temptation of cutting it so quick
I grew my relaxer out for 10 months. I couldn’t take the two textures anymore. I am a year natural now. I am so happy I did it. I love my curls.
I can’t wait to hit the 10 months mark too.I’m excited
I was so tempted to cut it
When I was transitioning
I couldn't wait too long s I decided to cut it anyway
Now my hair is natural, long and healthy
❤️❤️❤️ I already gave in and I’m loving it even with the short length.
I’m 1.5 years w/o getting a relaxer. I’ve been wearing braids and will finally do the big chop Thursday. I’m excited but scared.
Awwww!

You can take care of your hair in any state (being natural or relaxed doesn’t stop your hair from growing.once you mastered how to take care of your hair,it becomes easy for you.
And another thing is picking the right products for your hair.hydrating and moisturizing products will help you avoid that pain and breakage
@@msnonny my hair does not operate off of moisture and taking care of it alone 😭my hair has always been that way like in it’s natural state my hair has a hard time growing and when I straighten it out or relax it it’ll take off in growth my hair is weirdddddddddd 😭😭😭
You’ve not just found a way that works for your natural hair.As long as you’re alive without any healthy complications,your hair grows.

I will and you’re making good progress with your hair. Good luck 👍
This is my second time transitioning to natural oh Lord I didn't remember being this hard 😂
🤣🤣🤣
What care are you taking on your hair? Like creams, washing breaks and protective style
I think I made a full video on this.

You look beautiful! It came out nice❤
Thank you
Going on 4 years with no relaxer. no chop but my hair is curly and wavy now...
Your relaxed ends probably fell off. Anyone who has thick relaxed hair definitely has to cut off relaxed ends. They can never turn natural.
Switch to keratin treatment or silk press if you must straighten your hair ❤ its safer
My hair was relaxed
That's where I am but I was ready to go back to the creamy crack 😖
Whyyyy?
@@msnonny Chopped off the sides and back so I have no style while waiting for them to catch up to the top. No guts to cut my top to even it out.
Since you’ve started,you might as well chop it off completely
My hair looks like this rn and im always so eager to cut my hair but ill keep on growing the natural part out
I ended up cutting mine at 7 months post relaxer
I'm on 6 months and my natural hair hasn't even reached that length
Can you send a photo to me on instagram. It’s growing slow or breaking off.
What products did you use?
My hair is shedding in big chunks. It’s been five months since my last relaxer and that was a “Just for Me” kiddie perm. I don’t know what to do. I see that it’s coming mostly from my edges and it’s the straight hair. I don’t really know what to do.
Have you checked your iron level?
Were you sick ?
No on both counts. I did the protein treatment today. Aphogee to see if that helps. The good news is that my hair is thick so I’m hoping I can arrest the shedding. I’ve been watching tons of YouRube as I hate going to a salon.
I had issue with shedding last year and I figure out that it was an iron deficiency and stress.
I just made an appt. It will be three weeks until then because San Antonio apparently has a doctor shortage. Thanks, you never know, you may have saved a life.❤️
Alright
You can dm me on instagram after your checkup

The temptation to cut it may be the jealous people at work o. Please 🙏😢 don't.
Not yet
Or relaxed it your hair will be so long
No thanks
If you went five months when another 3 months and the Parma be gone
What’s Parma?
@@msnonny she meant perm

Nooooooooo!
If you actually don’t want to relax again then you should cut it
Have you not heard the word transitioning before?
It’s clearly in my title too 🤦🏽♀️
