TEMPTED TO PUT A RELAXER ON YOUR TRANSITIONING HAIR? angelsringlets.blogspot.com/20...
September 2011 marks 2 years anniversary of this transitioning teen. She is still transitioning from relaxed hair to natural hair. She has approx. 1'' of relaxed hair left that she still wears even while her hair is in curly state (it doesn't show!) This video hopes to update and inspire anyone considering to transition from relaxed to natural WITH OR WITHOUT doing the big chop. You see it CAN be done! ;op - Навчання та стиль
This is great! I am beginning my transition from texturized to natural and I am planning on transitioning for a few years as well.
Gosh this was such an inspiration for me. I've been transitioning for about 7 months now and it's been really hard for me considering I'm going through this journey alone and I'm only 16. My family hates natural hair with a passion, and it's gotten so bad to the point where I am being almost forced to get a perm. No only is it so hard to deal with the two different textures, but my family always dog me and tell how ugly I'd be without it and wont let me buy products to help my hair grow and prosper. Video's like inspire me to keep going so thank you so much for sharing this inspirational video, it just keeps pushing me a lot harder to keep trying until I reach my goal.
I feel u.dont give up sis. Natural is beauty. Just try to use whatever u have. A nice shampoo, a condition, your little gel and a nice oil😮😟😞
Keep going girl until you reach your goal.
You’re natural hair is what you were born with, if they can’t see how beautiful you are with the hair that literally grows out of your scalp then they are the ones with the problem. You weren’t born to “contain” your hair with a relaxer. God didn’t even create relaxers, so he didn’t intend on you getting them. God made you perfect because He makes no mistakes. You’re hair is perfect being in its natural state. The people who can’t see that have just been tricked by society and brainwashed by European beauty standards. Which is sad. Just remember if no one else thinks you’re beautiful with your natural hair, God does. And that’s all that matters because no one is more important than God. ❤️❤️❤️
you both are beautiful. she looks like a bright respectful young lady good job mom!
Congratulations Doll! Your hair will grow beautifully.
Awe this is so beautiful, your daughter is do sweet, im 17 months post, s stylist for 21 years, I have a 21 year old daughter that has been natural all her life, it hasn't been easy learning how to deal with two textures, but you and your daughter inspire me so thanks for all the great tips, and please keep sharing, beautifuls!!!
Thanks for the Love Beautiful
Beautiful mother and daughter, very inspirational video! am transitioning now and it has gotten a little frustrating because I experienced a bald spot, but I am still staying positive and seeing your video definitely gives me hope!
Awww
She has made great progress. Love how she handled her peers. It is so hard being a young girl in this day and age when being different isn't always popular. I think that is a testament to what a great mom you are. Love your vids.
Best thing you ever did for her hair. Wished I had a mom that had helped me like this during that time of my life growing up! I have hair like hers and now its a re-learning experience.
Congratulations on your one year transition! You're right, there's no rush needed. Have fun!
OMG!! Thank you so much for sharing this video!! I've been fighting with my 16 yr about going natural for 17 mos. and this is the most encouraging video we've ever watched. Even though her hair hasn't been this healthy since she was 4 years old she still wants a relaxer because none of her friends are natural. This video has helped us so much!!
What a great journey! I have been keeping up with all 3 of you ladies for a while now and I must say the journey have been something to celebrate. Such great progress and im sure she is inspiring others at school. Thanks for sharing with us.
Love the video! So nice to see the mother help her get through this process!
Thanks Love! Congratulations on your transition! You're way advanced in your thinking to transition away from chemicals! I wish I would have thought of it when I was your age. I'm really impressed by all of you young girls transitioning to your natural hair!!! Thanks for the message.
Wow... This is beautiful ! Congrats to you and your daughter on the progress!
Every time I get the urge to stop my journey and I watch one of your vids I get so much motivation its crazy. 5 months into my transition and trying hard to take it one day at a time. :) thanks
I loved your video. It gives me hope as i go through my natural hair journey. I am 4 months post relaxer. So far so good.
Happy anniversary!! Her hair is so pretty!! You're an awesome mom to have!! I'm sure she knows it:-)
Wow, that's a lot of growth! Her straightened natural hair looked so much thicker and her hair is so pretty in it's naturally curly state too!
I'm 19, and14 months post transitioning..began my transition during my senior year of school. I plan to pull through this journey for another 6-10 months. Gosh, she is so LUCKY to have a mom who helped her throughout her transition. Transitioning is a hassle sometimes, especially when you're on your own with no support.
Great video, mummy and daughter too sweet! Going through the transition with my two girls. Keep the videos coming. Light and Love to you both.
awww this inspires me I have 3 year old who sees the little girls on the perm box and always says she wants her hair like that. I always tell her that her hair is beautiful.
OMG both of you are beautiful. I'm just beginning to transition and I will definitely be watching your past videos. This help SO much. :)
Love it!! So proud of you and your daughter, awesome job ladies.
Thanks for sharing...you don't see many long-term transitioners on youtube! I'm 15 months post now and needed this to motivate me to keep going (aiming for a 2 year transition). Love your videos!!!
Woooooow what a inspiration I'm 16 months in transitioning!!!! I started with 16" of relaxed hair!!! Im gonna watch this every time I get discourage. -3 you ladies are beautiful by the way!
Congrats! Her hair has really thrived! You did an awesome job caring for her hair!
I'm currently in transition phase and filming for youtube as well. This deff helped me to keep on going! Thanks for the video :P
CONGRATULATIONS BEAUTIFUL ;O) I'm sure you're having lots of fun with all of the styling options that just opened up for you! We appreciate your message and hope you keep in touch.
You guys truly inspired me to keep on going with my transitioning hair. Next month of February will be a year of transitioning :) I sometimes think of perming my hair numerous of times but I'm still going to finish what I've started. :) thanks for the video
definitely one of my inspiration , her texture is so pretty and her hair looks soo healthy.
Congratulations! You two will be having lots of fun! Thanks for the message Love ;o)
I actually have relaxed hair and i wanted to go back to natural for a long time now but don't know how. My hair is exactly the same lenght as your daughter
Omggg i just got soo much encouragement from this video, best transition video w/ a mother and a daughter ( who could possibly be my age ) ; im 15 & im 4/5 months into transitioning & every week its a struggle ..mom constantly discourages but i feel confident !
I thank the Lord you did this video because i'm transitioning myself and its been about 3 months since my last relaxer and it hasn't been easy for me AT ALL!!! Sometimes I just want to relax my hair again but when i'm feeling discouraged i'll play this video and it'll give me the strength and courage to keep moving forward with my transitioning hair.lol Thanks for the video!
I'm 7 1/2 months into my transition we all need that extra inspiration to keep going because I have people say "oh girl you have a lot of new growth you need a relaxer" but I pay them no mind, I have very thick coarse hair and I have some family members who have a much softer texture say they can't do the natural thing but they will go out and buy curly weaves. I know in the end I will have the thickness I want, it will be longer and stronger. Thanks so much for keeping me motivated.....HHJ
This is a beautiful video and very inspirational!
@MissDarcei Congratulations on your transition! Thanks for your message Love
So my daughter is 11 and we started transitioning last year in September. She wasn't happy, but it had to be done because we both experienced breakage with the relazxer. I wear my hair curly all the time but she still likes hers straight. I will show her the video because there's a light at the end of every tunnel.... Keep up the good work!
Congrats on the transition!
Congratulations on 2 years. My 11 year old daughter began our transition 1 year ago we both did the big chop. Thanks for being an inspiration XOXO
wow! this was so inspirational! my mom and I are transitioning we have only been transitioning for about 3 months now!! I'm so excited for what is to come!! You and your daughter have beautiful hair :)
So me and my daughter is starting this year to our natural hair journey. Thanx for sharing and I know this is gonna be smthng lol. I'll keep you guys posted.
Thank You. This weekend im taking my sew-in out, getting it washed, and the rest is up to me.
You have inspired me to stop texturing my oldest daughter hair she is 8. I have not had a relaxer since last year 9/9/12 and excited to clip tge rest of my relaxed. Thanks for the vid and now a subbie!!!! Your family is beautiful♡
Wow you guys are very beautiful! I've not permed my hair for just over a year now and I have noticed it growing significantly much more than when I used to perm it. It has also been going much more curlier! I am embracing the natural look right now. Black hair is beautiful!
Even though this video was posted 2 years. It still is an inspiration to me. Thank you and update us soon. Rather you kept the natural or went back to the perm.
Love this!!! My daughter and I ( me 38 daughter age 12) are about to start the transitioning journey!! I can't wait. Thank you for sharing your video.
Your video CONVINCED ME TO BIG CHOP!!!! I did it just now right after watching this. I was transitioning for so long and just decided to go for it. Thanks for the encouraging video!
Omg same, I'm 14 and at school all the girls who sit with me at lunch say when are you gonna get a relaxer, your edges need to get layed (its really hard to lay my edges, but I just found a product that works!) I'm 5 months posts, lots of new growth and it can get really annoying but I'm transitioning with my 15 year old cousin so it's good!
a576823 I'd tell them why don't u get your ass relaxed
ashley fombe You are so strong and beautiful. Keep up the great work
Thanks Beautiful ;o) Congratulations on your transition. 9 months in is lots of new hair growth. Have fun!
I'm 13, and I'm going natural. This video is so inspirational and I'm hoping I could make as much progress as your daughter has !
I trimmed her hair 1 x month when she flat ironed. I deep conditioned her hair every 2 weeks. Trims definitely help transitioning hair when the relaxed ends get tangled. The blunt ends don't wrap around each other as easily. Thanks for the message Love!
That was a great video and great inspiration!!! Yall could pass for sisters!!!! You both are gorgeous!!
im fourteen and my hair is basically the length your daughter has started out with and I have been transitioning for 2 months now and this video is very inspiring to me thanks
Omg I cant believe it ... I love it. She did so good for her to be young but very beautiful. .
I am truly inspired by your video, The reason I say this is because I put a texturizer in my nine-year old daughters hair six months ago (big mistake) and now I want her hair to go back to its natural state, I can't wait till the texturizer is completely gone from her hair. I don't want to do any big chop in her hair what so ever, so seeing that they're was no big chop done on your daughters hair I am happy about that. I want her hair to achieve waist length. Great job on her hair!!!
When she had more relaxed hair than unprocessed, she often wore her hair in a bun styling. That's a great solution (but don't pull too tight), since she was able to tuck away the dead straight ends, while laying down her roots (new growth). Breakage was managed by trimming as needed, and keeping the correct moisture/protein balance. Your gel and ponytail are 1 option. Try playing with perm rod rollers on the relaxed ends. They help to match it up w/ the roots. Don't forget to Deep Condition
Luv it! Congrats!
Enjoy the versatility from curly to straight hair! Your daughter's hair is healthy and beautiful!
Thanks Beautiful ;o) Congratulations on your transitioning! Have FUN
i was so motivated by your video, i want to go natural without cutting all of my hair off. and this was the motivation i needed. please keep me informed on new techniques and ways to manage and care for natural hair............. :-)
I'm using a friend's handle because I lost my password. But I began my journey also a year ago while I was pregnant. My baby is 8 months old now. I have it weaved up in a full weave. I did the big chop while pregnant and weaved it in, now it is past my shoulders. I plan on keeping a full weave for one more year due to the changes in hormones after a baby, just to ensure there will be no more breakage. I refuse to give in to a relaxer EVER again in my life. I was even more so inspired by an RN I saw at the hospital during labor who had an afro/natural down to the center of her back, and that definitely lead me to believe that I am doing the right thing by going completely natural. Your daughter is beautiful, so are you and hair is gorgeous and how God intended it to be!
omg, im so glad i found this, after recently getting my hair relaxed a week ago i will never go back to being relaxed....the relaxer left me with chemical burns !! Now ive been researching and very excited about going natural ! I just dont know how ill maintain it ...im only 15 and this video gave me a huge amount of inspiration ..thank you :)
Thanks for sharing but there weren't enough pics of her hair in it's natural state in my opinion.
Beautiful is the word that comes to my mind watching her progress.....
Aww thanks for responding it means s lot & yeah many people try to bring me down but I'm staying strong and I admire you and your daughters you guys are beatiful and I really have to explain to my mom since her way of managing hair is just relaxers but july 7 markss my four months natural n once again thank you :-)
I remember watching this video 4 years ago only thinking about going natural. I love this video. It was an inspiration. I would just play it repeatedly especially for the song cause I could never find it lol and put perm rods in my hair when it was just a few inches long. Now I'm heading for bra strap length. A few set backs but I'm almost there.
Go head curly girl! Congratulations and have fun
I want to transition to natural hair but it is going to take so long. My mom wont let me do the big chop.
Mine didn't either but once you're comfortable with it and you've cut it off there isn't much she can do about it
i love her hair. its beautiful :) congratulations
I love your daughter hair. It look so beautiful. You can tell the relax ends and the healthiness of the natural hair. Way to go. I just hope I can last 2 yrs. the in between stage is very hard. Thanks for sharing.
I've watched this video so many times.
For the past 5 years
Thanks for the message Love! We used bad stuff at first, but learned better. The most important products to have in your stash: a good deep conditioner, a good leave in/oil combo (the kimmaytube leave in mixture was really good for our transitioning hair), and a good shampoo (use it sparingly and diluted).
hey, great video. She has really beautiful hair. and you both have done so far such a good work. I'm transitioning too, 12 months in october and i don't know i was thinking about doing the big chop now..but i think i'm not feeling confortobale at the moment with the lenght that i have. so i think i will be transitioning for a couple months. thanks for sharing all of this
OMG Finally I'm seeing someone's transition that looks so much like my own! I absolutely loved this video. My hair texture looks a lot like your daughters and I'm not so sure how I feel about the brad/twist out look either. I haven't had a big chop so the curly/wavy roots mixed with the straight ends are driving me crazy. What products did you use (or if you're still using) during that first year? This video is so encouraging! Thanks for sharing.
bet you she loves being a curly girl now!!! very inspirational, for many young girl this was great
Nice. I don't have a perm but am transitioning from heat induced relaxed hair. I was considering a big chop but I'm encouraged now thanks. Maybe I will also make a video of my journey. Be blessed.
Congrats! Your daughter is beautiful......love her hair!
i transitioned as a teen as well. her journy was amazing to watch
Her hair is gorgeous! I just bc'd a month ago and am growing it out. I hope to have as much progress, very inspirational =)
Thx for uploading this video!I would like to transition because my hair is breaking from perm damage...but after 4months I always end up putting the relaxer again because of "peer pressure".Your daughter was very brave to ignore the comments from other kids! I am 23 and those comments still affect me and influence my choice to transition or relax.my mom,my aunts,my friends, there is not one day without them asking me when I'm going to put a relaxer cuz my hair looks bad.its so annoying!!!
This Video Wow I Was Thinking Of Going Natrual But Kinda Love My Relaxed Hair But After This Im Going To Transition Thank You So Much
Don't give up, you can do it!!
Congratulations on your transitioning! You guys are going to have fun. Be encouraged, she will eventually appreciate the change. The transitioning styling can be frustrating. It's important to be true to your style during the transition. If you like straight hair, then wear straight hair (safely). Find a styling/care routine that you like and stick with it. Keep in touch!
Sounds like a good plan. Heat definitely poses a risk! I used to cornrow my hair and wear a few wigs when I was transitioning. Outside of that I used to roller set, perm rod rollers for long term styling (7-8 days).
both you and your daughter are beautiful! cant wait to be finished with my transition, i'm 9 months in haha
I have been growing natural for about 5 and 1/2 months! My curl pattern is kinda obvious now kinda! I think my hair will be very curly but this gave me so much hope because it's kinda hard to style but I am just going to continue to do braid outs and twist outs! I'll be fine my hair grows pretty fast I have about 2 inches of natural hair! Thanks for the video!
Congratulations Ladies! Have FUN with it :o)
Thanks for sharing your transitioning photos. I'm currently transitioning. It was one year on June 29, 2011 since my last relaxer. My hair is almost waist length. I plan on straightening every two to three months or so and trimming one inch each time I do. I may BC after two years but I'm not certain yet. :-) I'm loving my natural hair texture!
Congratulations T!! Your hair is beautiful and I bet those girls won't tease you now!!
Hi, I wanted to say that your daughter's hair is wonderful :) I'm glad you thought her into going natural at her age. I'm 16 and I'm it's to be one year since I've been transitioning in almost a month :D Anyway, happy hair care ^^
Her hair looks so healthy! Good job mom :)
Wow nice video I love your hair so beautiful and BTW I'm cutting my relaxs end now and I hope mines grow like yours did so beautiful
Congratulations on your transition! No you don't have to big chop, you can grow out and trim little by little. That's what she did. It took about 2 years (approx. 12'' of new hair growth). Have fun!
Thank you so much for your video! You guys are beautiful! Hope my daughter and I look like you two. My daughter is all natural and beautiful. I am began my transition two weeks ago. I am starting with BSL hair so I am VERY nervous. I will be positive though and look to her as motivation. :)
Lovely hair and a great transformation. How often did you trim and condition?
Beautiful mom and daughter ❤️❤️❤️
I am glad I saw this. I have been debating on whether or not to start transition on my daughter's hair. It should be much easier since she is only 8. She has only had two Just For Me relaxers ever and the last one was about 4 or 5 months ago, so I think it will be fine. I appreciate you sharing this journey.
Great job mum! See we know what we doing right?
Nice video, I was happy to see someone else also begin their journey in 2009 like I have....What are your techniques for flatironing properly?... because I have been thinking about flatironing mine more often and would like to take precaution while doing so because i have experienced extreme heat damage before
I really want to go natural, but my mom doesn't think it's the best idea. So this video was the boost I needed. Instead of waiting till I go off to college, why not start now! :)
