    I was always texlaxing my hair for many years and didn't realize that was what I was doing. I was just underprocessing my new growth every 3 months. My hair grew so long. Then I tried going natural for the past few years and I feel the same way. I went back to texlaxing last week. In the past when my hair grew down almost to my waist, I just kept it in a protective bun. Now I have discovered drawstring ponytail, I still keep my own hair in a protective bun, but now I protective my bun by covering it with a stocking cap, and using a drawstring ponytail over my bun. Now my hair is even more protective.😊

    Tex laxing my hair was the best decision ive ever made. I couldn’t go all the way with relaxer cuz my hair would be too brittle. My hair has never been healthier and dealing with my hair is a breeze.

    I’ve been natural for 10 years, as if this past December. After maybe 7 major length setbacks, my hair is almost to waist length. Here’s the thing though. I hate it so much it’s making me sad to have it on my head. I’m ready to texlax & be happy & free myself from the daily mental struggle of having to think about my hair weeks before an even

    Yes hair is hair, everyone is allowed to do whatever they want with it, as far the process is safe and not appropriating anyone’s culture.
    You can still go back to being natural anytime in the future, if you want to. It’s just hair 🙌🏾.

    Honestly y'all making me want to relax this hair because what in the name of stress is this??😩 As your natural hair grows bigger, it becomes even more stressful & nerve-wracking. You can't even pack your hair in peace. I am tired too. 😫

      I haven’t done much research, I have friends that do it although her hair isn’t 4c, but after a while your hair reverts back, so you have best of both worlds if you want. It also has its benefits of protein. And my friends hair, funny enough, is growing so much with the treatment. It’s also called Brazilian keratin treatment or something like that. It’s a bit expensive where I am but, I’m still a student that’s why 😂 however I think it might really work with your lifestyle.

    IMO, I feel like it’s not just hair. Yes, making natural hair takes time but if you do some research you’d see that there are tools that make managing natural hair a breeze. It saddens me to see a lot of naturals running back to chemicals to change their hair texture.
    Anyhoo, I hope you enjoy this new journey and that your hair stays healthy 🤗

      My hair is still curly so it requires some time and effort but it was important for my hair to become more manageable.
      It’s really just hair in the end and people should be able to make the decisions that favor them without the fear of being judged by society.
      I did have natural hair and cared for it as much as I could but it just wasn’t working anymore as my hair grew longer and thicker.
